Patriots and environmentalists upset over plan to eliminate Eagles
Many Americans have gotten their feathers ruffled by a report that a group of Patriots is looking for the quick extinction of a flock of Eagles. Rumor has it that the attempted massacre will take place on February 6. Since this announcement there have been numerous attempts to mobilize and defend the Eagles.
"This is America in a nutshell," said Ben Rhodes an advocate with the Eagle Defense Fund. "You have a bunch of yahoos going around calling themselves patriots, and suddenly they want to just go out and destroy animals. A few years ago these same patriots mutilated a herd of Rams, and then last year fought viciously with Panthers. And lets not forget how every year these Patriots send Colts to the glue factory. Jeez, even England has banned fox hunting!"
Rhodes is not alone in his desire to protect the Eagles, and he has an unlikely cohort in Tim Robinson, a self-proclaimed "libertarian and defender of freedom." Robinson is "sickened" by the thought that a Patriot would intentionally hurt "such a symbol of our nation's freedom as the eagle." "That doesn't sound like anyone who loves this country," said Robinson.
Robinson plans to join Rhodes and the Eagle Defense Fund as they march in Jacksonville, FL, the site of this supposed Eagle hunt. Robinson has a word of caution about his participation in this protest, "I'm not turning into some enviro-weenie; this is the eagle we are talking about, besides I plan to drive my SUV."
"We take help wherever we can get it," said Rhodes. "I don't think Americans are as aware of this hunt as they should be; they're too focused on the Super Bowl and need to wake up."
