Barney and Goober shoot a concrete alligator

No doubt the investigation will result in the landowner being charged with *something* for making the police look foolish.

I'm sure the words "search warrant", "former Marine" and "ongoing investigation" will be used.....

Gentry said the landowner told officers he put the fake gator there to keep children off his property.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

So was this "gator" on private property or not?  The article is not clear.

Hm...  kids running around the back of the apartment, screaming 'n squealing 'n leaving lollipop wrappers and damming the irrigation ditch so the parking lot gets flooded...

Anyone know where a guy can buy a concrete mountain lion?

Hmmmm...

It was a drug raid.

The gator was stoned.

The article also says that some kids saw it while playing in some "nearby woods". Did the concrete alligator owner own the woods that the kids were playing in? If so, why didn't the cops inform the owner that there was an alligator spotted on his land and they was a bout to kill it?
