Dead Bear Wrapped In Obama Signs (cub shot in head, body used as prop)
WYFF4 ^ | 10/20/08

Posted on 10/20/2008 3:09:26 PM PDT by LibWhacker

Cullowhee, N.C. -- The carcass of a black bear that had been shot in the head was found wrapped in Barack Obama campaign signs on a North Carolina campus on Monday.

Western Carolina University Campus Police Chief Tom Johnson said that officers were called about a dead bear on campus at about 7:45 a.m.

When the officers found the bear carcass, they said it was covered with two campaign signs that had been taped together.

WCU police called the state wildlife department to remove the bear from the campus.

Johnson said he has "no idea" what the motive for the killing or putting the signs on the body would be.

The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission is investigating the incident as a criminal matter. Although it is bear hunting season, to dump a bear's carcass is considered "wanton and willful waste of wildlife."

Anyone with information about the bear is asked to call the commission's violation hotline at 1-800-662-7137. A reward will be offered.

Geeze.

Whatever the idea behind this it is beyond the pale.

(oops... was that racist?)

This is the most aberrant political season I have ever seen.

Yep, sounds like something the Obama KKK would do.

To be fair, there isn’t anything on a college campus these days that isn’t a Barack Obama sign. So if you’re going to wrap a dead bear in anything, it would be Obama signs.

Some thoughtless person probably thought this might indicate “Sarah the hunter” did this??? It’s quite sad that people can be so short on knowing what is right and wrong.

I just pray John McCain and Sarah Palin win the White House.

The culprits will be found out, something like this is to be bragged about.
Yea, probably an OBama supporter trying to drive another wedge into the racial divide.
But it's not going that way.
