...harassing an endangered gopher tortoise

This is the charge that will hang them.

A two-block radius around the home of Broderick Dass, 48, and his 19-year-old son, Brandon, was evacuated for at least two hours Monday after police found the AT-4 anti-tank missile

Weapons of Dass destruction.

...as well as harassing an endangered gopher tortoise with a Rottweiler...

I think one way to keep gopher tortoises from being endangered is to let them all have rottweilers. Very protective, those rotties.

Charge them with tresspassing and theft of property. Not sure what else they should be charged with?

...took the missile to a nearby fairground and detonated it....

Much to the chagrin of the folks on the ferris wheel.

...“We could feel the shockwave hit you,” Kirby said. “Your hair was moving like a breeze hit you all of a sudden.”...

An AT-4 from a mile away?? Nope.

This is the media. They are not interested in accuracy. Only a good story...

[TMSuchman]

The missle was going to be used for deer hunting right. LOL

...“We could feel the shockwave hit you”

That WAS some blast, if they could feel the shockwave hit ME.

They may have been talking about the other explosive, not necessarily the AT-4. The story is a little vague. But you're right.

When I was a kid I had a pet Gopher. I painted my name on his shell.

I could pat on his hole and he would come out. I would play with him awhile and put him back. He loved peas in the shell.

I'm glad I never cut these guys off in traffic! We're talking serious road rage potential with an AT. Might need to install some countermeasures into my Town & Country.

Looks like the feds done found yer varmint gun you lost during that last boar hunt!

[Dead Corpse]

The Second Amendment isn't about deer hunting.

This shouldn't even be about the guns they had. Just the property they stole and the tresspassing they did to get it.

It'll look pretty goofy with the slat armor off a Stryker.

This is, however, hilarious. An AT4 is a moderately serious piece of ordnance. This ain't no wimpy RPG.

[Dead Corpse]

Dangerous is me getting my hands on a pair of 20MM's that I can mount in the bed of my truck. Then let one of the tejanos cut me off in the fast lane and slow down to 52MPH in a 65MPH zone.

“Your hair was moving like a breeze hit you all of a sudden.”

Let me guess, your hair has fallen out - that's why you're trying to use someone else's hair for your metaphor..

[Rakkasan1]

sexually harassing or just name-calling the turtle?
possibly poking fun of it's slow nature
