Two Legs, Good! Four Legs Bad!

Seattlest admits we were embarrassed last night when on Boston Legal, a lawyer mentioned the "some" states had no laws against bestiality. We knew who they were talking about. They didn't say, but we knew.

The good news is that as the Seattle Weekly reports, State Sen. Pam Roach, R-Auburn, wants to illegalize it. It's about time!, in our opinion. You know, it's not just about sex; lives are at stake. Don't forget that horse killed that man in a really, really unpleasant way.

Now the Seattle Times has unearthed evidence to suggest that the cats are in on it, too. Clayton Edward Butsch, 40, of Lake Stevens, was sentenced to 50 years for the shooting of Chad J. Vavricka, 30, of Snohomish. But here's the thing: his cat Sam (an acronym for "Satan's Animal Minion"?) told him to do it.

Butsch believed his cat Sam was the reincarnation of a kitten he had baked to death in an oven 10 years ago and thus could show him who was evil and who was good.

According to testimony in his trial, Butsch shot Vavricka, who was asleep at the time in Butsch's fifth-wheel trailer in Lake Stevens, after the cat refused to go near him.

Now, Seattlest is a cat person, don't get us wrong. We're against, firmly against, any baking of cats in ovens. But we're keeping a nervous eye on them. And horses. All of you, really.

This kind of thing is exactly why people don't read newspapers anymore. There you are with your morning coffee and *WHAM* baked cats and perforated colons. Our next post had better have something to do with stuffed animals.
