... and not in a good way
May 2, 2010
ARLINGTON — Arlington police shot and killed a bull that got onto Interstate 30, ramming cars and charging officials (ed., the "attack" kind of charge, not like a "charge card" kind of charge). An animal services employee attempted to use a tranquilizer (ed., on the bull we assume, not on himself), but the bull was unwilling to participate. The bull charged the employee (ed., again, the attack kind of charge) so an officer shot the bull (ed., we're unsure which meaning was intended here. Witnesses report half-eaten donuts at the scene, and the cow clearly was dead. Therefore, either meaning may be appropriate).
A police spokeswoman said on Sunday they have not yet determined the bull's motive. However, the bull's brand indicated an origination from Avon, Montana, suggesting a tie to Cletus, a recently inhumanely slaughtered and undervalued steer from the same locale.This point of origin would explain the bull's jumping from eastbound to westbound lanes of I-30, repeatedly, screaming, "You ain't taken me down like you took Cletus you bastards!!! Long live Cletus!!! Moooo!!!!"
This is getting out of hand. Shooting the bull is one thing; shooting the bull is something else entirely and should not be tolerated. I even talked to a Texas ranger about this, who told me I was a lunatic, which served to reinforce my own beliefs. Dr. J. (not the basketball star)
