In a state where people use their bare hands to pull 60+ pound catfish out of polluted lakes, cap a fat feathery dinner along side the Lt. Governor for the annual Turkey Hunt, or beginning October 1st kill a several hundred pound bear with a bow and arrow, the distinguished U.S. Senator from Oklahoma is killing flying sewer rats using a cannon… or something.
Yup, that’s right, in efforts to show off his manly manness, and maybe maintain some form of youthfulness at nearly 80 years old, Oklahoma’s Senator Jim Inhofe hosted a fundraiser where people threw pigeons in the air for attendees to shoot. Now, animal rights activists are up in arms because this is basically like shooting fish in a barrel. Except, you know, it was shooting pigeons.
