All gray squirrels killed at Prince Charles's estate die humanely, a spokesman for the heir to the British throne said Friday.

Nero fiddles.

So the gray squirrels get lethal injections?

I don’t care what anyone says, I like gray squirrels! In a park near my home, you can be sitting on a bench reading a book, when all of a sudden you get that feeling someone is watching you. As you turn slowly to the right, you quickly spot a gray squirrel about ten inches from your head, furiously rubbing his little paws, waiting for a handout.

I’m thinking that its high time to open up a swan hunting season here.

Are the squirrels used in stew, or in pies? Squirrel has been a delicacy for centuries.

Actually he's waiting for the day when his population levels rise enough for them to launch an attack on mankind.

“ARMAGEDDON!!!”

Ha! Ha! I’ve already purchased a peanut launcher to deter them when they do.

My personal favorite is a .22 short hollow point to the head.

That looks like a real squirrel. Is it?

[Redleg Duke]

I like squirrel. Quartered, rolled in seasoned flour, browned in crisco in the bottom of a pressure cooker and then pressure cooked for about 25 min. Make a gravy with the drippings and serve with mashed potatoes and green beans! YUMMMM!

I, for one, welcome our gray squirrel overlords.

Hey, we have starlings and house sparrows in the US, brought here by some idiots. We will take grey squirrels back and the Brits can come and get the birds, otherwise Charlie can STFU.
