TV GIRL SOUASHED MY BABY SOUIRREL May 28 2005
A REPORTER sent to do a story about a baby squirrel stood on the fluffy creature by mistake and killed it.
Inka Blumensaat wanted to tell how a pet cat had saved the orphaned squirrel by adopting it as her own.
But the friendly rodent jumped on her leg as she filmed her report and she panicked and trampled it underfoot,breaking its neck.
Heike Reher, whose cat adopted the squirrel in Lubeck, Germany, said: 'The reporter started leaping about like a mad woman. She squashed the squirrel completely.
'Everyone looked at the floor in horror where the little squirrel lay in a pool of blood.
'I picked my little treasure up and ran out of the house in tears. I was so upset I could not speak.
'The reporter came back with some flowers but I could not speak to her.'
Inka, who works for NDR TV, said: 'I regret the whole thing bitterly and wish there was something I could do to put it right
A reporter saw a baby and couldn't understand why it didn't have its brains vacuumed out of it already.

She ought to be sent to Iraq. Tell her Zarqawi's really a baby squirrel in a terrorist suit. If she ever saw him, she'd stomp the snot outta him.
(If what I just wrote makes you sad or angry,
It's nothing that a jury trial and a $50 million verdict for infliction of mental pain and suffering can't fix.
Does PETA have a chapter in Germany?
OMG, that's too bizarre.
Our Weimaraner will stalk and kill squirrels in our yard.
We live on a golf course, and one golfer saw her catch one and went berserk. Came over to tell us we shouldn't allow her to kill squirrels (like we're supposed to chain the dog up or something when she's in our yard, and my philosophy is if the squirrel is dumb enough to get that far away from the tree so she can cut him off on his reatreat to the tree, oh well.)
Anyway, the guy was raising a stink. Finally, my husband said, "Look, a squirrel is a rat with a bushy tail, they're not on any endangered species list, so get over it."
Wonder how that golfer would feel about this reporter, LOL!
I'm trying really hard not to laugh but I just can't keep the tears from rolling down my cheek!
Were you in to the "Peggy Hill" variety?
Did she have to but new shoes to replace the ones that have the rats blood on them?
Squirrelslaughter?
PETA alert!!
Rodent rights!
The world will not be at peace until rodentkind is fully accepted. Rodent rights now!
"You should've seen the look in her eyes,
When that squirrel jumped her garters and crossed her thighs,
And she jumped to her feet and cried, 'Lord have mercy on me!'"
--- Ray Stevens, "Mississippi Squirrel Revival"
Oh the humanity!
Hey look, you can replace the word "reporter-Inka Blumensaat" with "Hillary" and the word "squirrel" with "opponent" and it would sound just like another usual episode of Arkancide.
