85.  Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”



Do you know how to catch wild pigs?”
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the
punch line. The young man said that it was no joke.
“You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in
the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs
find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free
corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put
a fence down one side of the place where they are used
to coming.
When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the
corn again and you put up another side of the fence.
They get used to that and start to eat again. You
continue until you have all four sides of the fence up
with a gate in the last side.
The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to
come through the gate to eat that free corn again.
You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole
herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom.
They run around and around inside the fence, but they
are caught.
Soon they go back to eating the free corn . They are
so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage
in the woods for themselves, so they accept their
captivity.”

PLEASE GO TO: www.congress.org to write or call President Obama and Congress asking them to REPEAL! We must speak up and

protect our liberties or become PIGS! Have you seen what they do to pigs in our country? Get off your ass! ;) la la laaaa
