Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for March 31, 2015

Being sued for being culturally insensitive?

They’ll sue for anything these days. Can I sue if a comic strip isn’t funny enough?

If he is a drop bear just spread some Vegemite behind your ears. You will be fine. Maybe Zebra should get a vicious jackalope. That would take care of business.

Hmmm, sounds familar.

zebra…if you can be hustled by a koala…you have little hope against a croc or a lion and most certainly against a LAWYER

maybe Zebra can get Stephan to represent him. Oh wait, nevermind…..

I wish Pastis would leave his politics out of this strip. Never funny when he tries to send a message.

Last week Indiana passed a law blocking suits over “cultural insensitivity” and the leftists went nuts. Now the cowardly republicans are talking about modifying the law. Spine of jelly.

Shoulda used a Bunyip…

This makes 3 or 4 Koala strips, and the koala’s eyes are always open. It’s obviously not a real koala, since it never sleeps.

Actually, the republican mayor of Indianopolis “went nuts” too, since he realizes it’s a bigoted law.

you know what shakespeare said….

Interesting how you made the lawyer Jewish.

I thought the same, Ginny.

To solve this problem, Zebra should get the lawyer and the koala to fight so that one will eat the other. Doesn’t matter which.

where’s the number for my lawyer again????? i think i gotta sue because of some of the comments – my lawyer works on commission – i don’t win – he don’t get paid – i win he gets 90% and i file class action suitswin-win :)

I don’t know if this was supposed to be offensive or funny but it made me crack a smile.

I did not see that second panel coming!

Melvin “Why do some people on this Comments Board think I must be Jewish [talk about stereotyping!]?” Melvinowitz was probably wrong to call Zeeba Neighba “racist scum.” There could be a counter-suit in that remark, if Z.N. can get Cartoon-Boy to give him representation…. And, besides that, the koala does bill himself as “Killer Koala,” raising reasonable expectations of performance.

I once read a book about dumb laws. My favourite was a law stating that if a woman drives a car, a man should run in front of the car waving a red flag. I’m certain this was from over 100 years ago.I did not make this up.

Froot loops are racist to toucans…….
