Transcript:
Rat: I don't like the family in the comic strip "Hi and Lois." I want to beat one of them up. Goat: Who do you want to beat up? Rat: I want to get the dad. Goat: You want to get Hi? Hey! What the??? Rat: I am so darn clever.
The Comics Police arenāt arresting him for making a pun; theyāre arresting him for making a drug reference. (Yes, it happens to be a pun, but stillā¦) Note that nobody was taken away for threatening violenceā¦
The Comic Police are kinda behind the times, as MJ is not treated as a serious offense in most venues now. Maybe Rat bribed them to take down Goat. I wonāt be surprised.
do be careful in this country. cops are becoming overly aggressive. killing dogs. tasing people and congratulating if the victim dies. raiding peopleās houses if they have gardens, because a tomato plant and marijuana are the same thing. punching a mentally disabled teen while held down in the face. arresting people when buying bottled water, because polish spring is the same as vodka. arresting a stroke victim, for not responding to commands. and, many of the internal investigations are justify the actions. āacting appropriatelyā is their justification.
What a bunch of THC (Totally Harsh Comments) Doesnāt Pig know the ComicCops are everywhere? Theyāre a two-dimensional branch of the NSA. (National Snooping Agency)Oops, can I say āNSAā here? If Iām not back tomorrowā¦
