Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for February 14, 2010

Support the right to arm bears…and woodchucks and ducks and rabbits and…

If he bagged a possum he wouldn’t eat it ‘cause he has no idea how to prepare and cook it. Granny on Bev. Hillbillies could make possum stew, but he’s no Granny!

Who’s been selling arms to the Meadow inhabitants?

Oh, the usual suspects; it’s one of the main industries left in the US of A.

hey thats not fair, I love animals. Especialy with a good gravy.

PETA- People for the Eating of Tasty Animals

When we have great, international councils that make sure parties in wars between ourselves are armed equally and obey certain rules, it only makes sense that the same rules apply in human vs. animal wars as well. And since the parties in a human vs. human war generally ignore all the rules and do what they want, it only makes sense that the animals could start refining uranium and build a nuclear weapon. And, just to complicate things, humans, in certain third world countries run by dictators, can side with the animals and start conducting illegal guerrilla warfare against other humans.

I wonder why I outgrew hunting? Oh yeah, I grew up. Ahh, the thrill of bagging a deer crossing sign or hitting all eight empty beer cans. Hemingway had nothing on me.

Good luck eating when the grocery stores are empty.

oh, are we heading for some post-apocalyptic ending like in movies?—- well, then let’s buy camos, horde ammunition and MRE’s and hide in our bunkers until the inevitable demise of human society …. then we can smugly smile and say : told ya !

“Fat-bellied stogie sucker” doesn’t sound like it would be all that good. It’d be all fatty and oozing of tobacco juice. ick.

The anti-arms race continues. If they get the Twinkies, I’ll die. thanks, Zombieland. And the industries big sales mean a lot more federal tax sharing for MI cause we have a lot of hunters here. So…mixed emotions.

Finally! The animals shoot back!

Who’s selling them arms? Probably the CIA.

This is my favorite Bloom County strip of all time. At least once a week, I’m reminded of the fat bellied stogie sucker, especially when I’m shopping at the mall.

Here ya go, kreole, “Possum Stew” recipe, straight from Granny - doggies, it’s purely scrumptious: “Ingredients: two cans of tomato sauce three cans of cooked tomatoes 1/2 thickly sliced worthog meat (mainly for flavor) a big bag of pasta noodles (any redneck kind will do)

salt and pepper

Directions: Fry bacon in big gramma kettle, over mid. size fire, then fry possum in the grease till golden brown. Take the meat out, then add enough water to pot to fill 2/3 way and then boil noodles. Once cooked add both things of tomatoes to kettle and meat and add enough salt and pepper to old granny’s taste. Cook all together for a bout 1 hour simmering over low fire to sautee.

Bone Appa Teet. ”

Sarah Palin doesn’t need to watch out. The brainwashed demo-rats do.

Stick to the comic.

Does calling people names make you feel like a big boy?

I suspect that animals already carry guns; there’s no other explanation for hunters who use high-powered assault weapons just to nail a rabbit.

@Sherlock: You actually KNOW people who use high-powered assault weapons to hunt rabbits?
