When will the condemnation start???

When will PETA file the lawsuit for animal cruelty or the ACLU file one for child abuse.

The issue? A 7 year old GIRL saw a snake enter the chicken coop and steal the eggs the family was going to sell, so she shot and killed the snake. Let me repeat the "crime". A 7 year old GIRL used a GUN and KILLED a snake. Actually she killed it with the first shot.

And this isn't the first time she has used a gun either. She's already bagged her first deer, when she was SIX.

It would be interesting to see the letters to the editor over the next few days to see if anyone objects. Not too likely since the Daily Press is a rural Virginia paper, but if the wire service or some urban papers pick up the story, look for the shocked people to complain "how could a father teach his little girl to use such evil things (guns) and how could they harm a wild creature like a snake".

My thoughts on this, in 8 years, look for Kayla Williamson to be on the US Olympic team.
