Goose Stomper!

[slapdash21]

Anyone heard this story? Saw it in the paper? if you didnt...(i dont know all the details, but i will do my best) a young male individual was walking between buildings on a campus, when he stumbled across a family of geese. the mother goose, feeling threatened, hissed at the young man, who got scared and slipped in the mud. apparently the mother goose advanced on him, so he hopped up and kicked all the geese to death, stomping on the entire family, at one point jumping up and down on baby geese, which were found flattened later. his behaviour was witnessed. his mother claims that he is a holy, innocent, young man who attends church regularly, who would never do something like this. the man claims likewise, that he was scared, and acted in defense, in a fearful rage. thoughts?

I can't believe going to church could be used as an excuse - you only need to look at the thousands of crimes committed in the name of God to know that it's no excuse.

It sounds like the guy is a dickhead to me. I think his actions to be totally unneccessary. I've grew up on a farm (at least until I was 9 or 10) and was attacked by the odd animal. The easy lesson to learn is that if you get away from it, it will stop attacking you. There's no honour in killing a domesticated animal (except for Cats, but that's a different issue) - and no loss in dignity for running away.

I guess he was probably fairly ignorant about geese and maybe got hurt and was angry. I don't think this excuses his actions.

Dang, that's just mean. I mean if he was that afraid of them wouldn't he like run away or something. Don't get me wrong, Geese are scary, but I think I could deffenatly outrun one. Plus kicking it once probably would have done the job. Stomping babies is just mean. It kind of reminds me of a game I have played a couple times called spank the goose (it's not a real game my friend just made it up). It's not really like actually spanking a goose, it's bassicly tag with a goose. Who ever tags (touches not like tagging sharks or anything) the goose first wins... much cooler then stomping on geese.

I read about that yesterday. That mother fucker should be punished to the full extent of the law. A goose, threatening??? I know that they can bite (no teeth), and I know it's got some powerful wings, but if I thought I was gonna get attacked by a goose, I'd probably just kick it once and run away. It be a much better story to tell for a while than stomping it and it's babies to death.

Me after goose attack and a couple of bong hits (good version):

(me)"Man, this crazy fuckin goose attacked me earlier!!!"
(random friend) "What'd you do?"
(me)"What could I do? I had to kick it and run away. It chased me but I got away because I can run way faster than a goose"
(random friend)"Crazy story."

Me after goose attack and sitting in jail with random big guy (bad version):

(random big guy)"Whach you in fo"
(me)"This goose attacked me so I had to stop it to death."
(random big guy)"You stomped it to death?"
(me)"Yeah I stomped it to death. Not only did I stomp that bitch to death, I stomped all it's little defensless babies to death too! Wha.....what are you doing......OW......STOP STOMPING ON ME!!!!"

Well that's the way I hope it goes anyway.

Amen to that, Brotha.
