Since Asian carp were introduced in the U.S. in the 1970's, the fish have spread to dozens of states causing destruction in the delicate ecosystems of the waterways.

No doubt a renaming of “Africanized killer bees” to “undocumented, overly-protective apian species” is next on their foolish agenda.

As a person of Irish ancestry, I’ve just now decided that I am deeply offended by the fact that there’s a breed of dog called the “Irish Setter.” I want an apology, and I want reparations!

Recent studies have shown that asian carp do better in schools than non-asian carp.

Liberals will never stop. If you aren’t offended by something, then they will be offended for you.
