White male cited for killing geese in Springfield, Ohio

NEW: I've received evidence of an arrest for illegal geese harvesting in Springfield, Ohio. But it wasn't a Haitian immigrant who was arrested. It was a white man named Brian Comer, who shot two geese with a shotgun on a golf course.

"You should blame the guy whodunit for maybe looking that way,
and blame the lib media for pointing out the awful truth.
Now shut up, sit down, and send the all-time greatest republicon Felon/Rapist/Traitor some money."

I call it:

Dolly Parton’s Boat

(Background: I owned and edited a local small town newspaper in NW Missouri)

One half of a large boat (it was shipped in two pieces) was making its way down the highway near our small town. Everyone was talking about it. The road was being “closed” so that its width could be accommodated and the story was that Dolly Parton was the owner. Several miles north of town, the movers had pulled over to let traffic through, and I took the opportunity to go and speak with the people moving the boat. They told me that it was not Dolly’s boat, that it was a party boat that was going to reside at Lake Taneycomo and that the second half of the boat would be making its way in about a week. They gave me the contact information for the boat builder and their shipping company, who I followed up with and verified the information. I published all of the information, along with pictures of what the boat would look like when put together, its future name and pictures of the lake where it would be put in.

No one believed the truth and everyone (basically) denied that it wasn’t Dolly’s boat.

And, that, my friends, is how lies can outlive the facts.

You can do ANYTHING you want on a golf course. Take it to the Supreme Court and see what they say! Haven't you watched Caddy Shack and The Long Game!?!?!
