Guessing the vast majority of the outraged cheered Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
We Have A Winner!!!
Had box turtles in northern NJ. Occasionally they showed up
while mowing the lawn.
Perhaps you should walk across the street before release.
LOL!
On the Big Island there was a place where the turtles came up on the shore all the time. There were signs on the path to the beach stating it was ILLEGAL to touch or get within X feet of a turtle.
The spot was right in front of Neil Young’s house. He sold the place because of all the people that came there to look at the turtles. My wife and I stayed at a hotel down the beach from there.
They are lucky they don’t see what the natives do to those turtles. And the Filipinos.
Perhaps you should walk across the street before release.
Ok, I realized I should have made it clearer we were on the beach. The point was to avoid them from having to cross the street.
I wish it had bitten him.
Murder an unborn child and the law protects you.
The rare and elusive “flying” box turtle, I suppose?
Mono tiki Tia!
And they should be upset. Touron should’ve left it alone.
Too bad they weren’t snapping turtles.
I live just north of Yellowstone National Park...you can’t believe the things tourists are always doing...
Last week an old lady from New Jersey picked up a wolf and carried it around for 15 minutes!
Then just Monday a visitor from California grabbed a bison and began wrestling with it!

Ha! He picked up the ugliest sea turtle.
And he doesn’t know who it’s been with before.
He will probably catch a disease from it.
Well it is stupid. It Hawaiians believe they are special and we must all worship them. They are also the most raciest people on the planet.
Nothing like the annual land crab march on Sheridan Street 1970s. Thousands got crunched that day. Nowadays the turtle people are northern retired Karens gathered in Boca and Highland Beach.
