How karmic. Some years ago officious bureaucrats in Texas pignapped Bubba, the pet javelina who watched the home of an elderly couple who doted on their tame pet. But the snot police confiscated and frogmarched Bubba into the wild where hunters with guns search and shoot javelinas on sight. Bubba was never seen alive and the elderly couple were devastated by the cruelty and gratuitous initiation of force that killed their pet. Schadenfreude here…
