That emu has got the Groucho Marx walk down cold.

The bird is harmless and there is no justification for killing it. It belongs in Australia not Delaware so it’s just doing the best it can.

At last, I can finally stop sleeping with a loaded AR-15 beside my bed.

The agency has asked police to shoot the emu if public safety is at risk. Shortridge says killing the bird isn’t the preferred solution.

Because, after all, it may be able to kill with a single kick, but it’s not like it’s an unarmed black man.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE.

Breaking news? Any emu wandering around and finally being captured? Is the AP just having some fun or is there more to this story than we’ve been told?!?!?!?! While at great risk myself I’ve uncovered the truth! It’s a conspiracy to protect the secret government breeding facility for Demon Black Birds of Lusty Surveillance and Death. Save our nation! Save our daughters! Save your lives while you still can!

You just made my day! Thank you! :smile:

Before we talk about shooting the poor thing, did anyone try projecting strength at the emu? I’ll bet if Christie had scowled and made Angry Talk in its direction it would have run straight back into its cage.

It probably just wanted a Deal.

Well, at least unload the nuclear-tipped feather-piercing emu-emulsifying explosive ammo. Regularly armor-piercing metal-jacketed bullets should suffice to eliminate most typical domestic threats.

In the future, TPM might consider using the term “free-range” instead of “rogue”, at least until the actual motivation of the emu is known , and whether an emurgency is warranted.

“emu-emulsifying”. That’s GOLD!
