quote:
This violent spectacle encourages children and adults alike to scare, injure, and torment animals for entertainment. The world doesn't need more bullies. Texas law prohibits inflicting unnecessary and unjustified pain and suffering on animals, so I implore you to make sure that the law is upheld here—and to issue an executive order banning this event.

i like Woody. More than i hate pigs even.
with as many pigs as Texas has i dont really see the issue with ending somethin that could be considered cruel as long as killing them in droves is still acceptable and lawful.

Ever owned a pig?
Until a person has owned one... or a few, they should never bash a person on how a pig is handled. And that’s the problem with PETA and Hollywood know it alls like him. They speak about shite they have no knowledge about.
We pay $350+ for show pigs and I can tell you, you can’t be to rough with them. I’ve drug them out of trailers by the tails, ears, legs, etc. They are loud and squeal like you’re skinning them alive but you can’t hurt them frickers. Hell, the scream just as much when we wash them with soap and water.

Hunting, fishing, guns, etc.

I don't know why, but this made me laugh

He probably isnt aware of the damage they do.

Maybe because to a pig, being washed is as painful as being drug all over the place by your legs or ears. Lmao!
So what is Woody talking about? I just googled "Bacon Bash", and it looks like a giant bacon-cooking party to raise money for kids with diabetes or something (not sure why, but that comes off as ironic). I don't see anything about scaring pigs.

That’s not nearly as horrific as choppin broccoli.

The weed legalizing groups try for so long to convince everyone that the stuff isn't detrimental to a person and then Woody goes and does something like this. He probably just set the effort back 20 years.
I used to kinda like the guy. Now I'm beginning to think that his talent for portraying the dumb and simpleminded characters may not be acting talent at all.

I watched the video PETA put out. Basically its a big wild hog roundup. They also have contest where they turn a wild hog out in a pen and you have to catch it with your hands.

Man if I got to put my face all up in Alexandra Daddarios fun bags I'd never complain about anything again.

I would have to categorized as a member of both also.
He is just one of those guys who the anti-weed guys can point at and say "Doesn't frick up your brain? Look at him!"

So you think doing anything to a wild pig that may cause any stress or discomfort should be banned other than shooting them? As in no running dogs, trapping, etc?

I am all for running dogs to catch and KILL the hogs but most the hog doggers arent killing them, just doing it for sport or kicks
and it takes a sick individual to catch a hog, cut open his nutsack, pull his testicles out, and release him that shite has no place

Do you feel the same about doing that to cattle? Because that shite happens on an industrial scale
Posted on 5/24/19 at 11:18 am to FelicianaTigerfan
Maybe I was real unclear or maybe I misunderstood Woody's ideas. I am not against the killing of the hogs. Sounds like he is. I was saying he's a little nuts.
I am opposed to torturing them, if that is part of the activity. No reason to do that kind of shite.
