"Revocation of the Edict of Nantes"
Very good, Starwolf. This is why we left France, to come to the New World (Canada... Arcadia) to practice our religion in freedom. But the king sent their armies to massacre us, drove the Arcadians (now Cajuns) to Louisiana.

Can Muslims eat them?

Good question. I saw a woman in a headscarf eating clam chowder today. I nearly asked her if shellfish were Halal.

See #35 and did you ever taste Jax; I'm surprised it took them so long to go out of business. The absolute worst, Dixie beer was # 2.

OK. Operation crawdad is a success. Now let us procede with the Nutria plan and then the Fire Ants. Other areas of possible success could be seen with Jehova's Witnesses or maybe Hollywood actors.

So when will the ICC be delivering a subpoena to the White House on behalf of France for this:

"When the Louisiana crawfish is present in the amphibian laying site — pool, pond or marsh — we have observed different mutilations of amphibians: cut skin, leg amputations," [Jean-Marc Thirion] said. "When the Louisiana crawfish population is established after a few years in the same site, we note the extinction of amphibian species."

No, we can't have frogs exterminated in France. It's too symbolic.

They over looked one solution: Transplant enough of my good friends from Sout' Loosiana (pure blood Coon Asses) and they'll relieve them of their problems raitt now.

First off the French will have to conduct an environmental study of how "pure blood Coon Asses" could affect the environment. You know, those big boots tromping on that native vegetation, that be real bad.
