The shovel culture in this country is out of control. Clearly, we need laws to limit handle length, eliminate concealed shovel carry, and ban hoes. Yes, that's hoes- h o e s. Get your minds out of the gutter.

That's wild- my first stitches were from a shovel. Neighbor kid was trying to take my head off.

My dad was a water master and we had many farmers knock on our door carrying a shovel wondering why he couldn't give them more water than their share. He also happened to be our town judge. There was a fine line between a shovel being used as a tool or as a weapon.

Shows even with present control methods in place that these cars are problematic.

I tried to kill a raccoon that had a foot in a jaw trap once. Wacked him in the head as hard as I could with the edge. He yanked his foot out of the trap and chased me back to the truck. I hadn’t imagined myself running from an angry raccoon previously, bought a Ruger Standard .22 shortly after that.

I had a very similar incident with a raccoon in a trash can in Texas. I hit that sucker as hard as I could swing. It flattened him, and then he shook it off and started chasing me while I screamed like a little girl.

My first stitches were from a hoe too. Gardening hoe to be more specific!My oldest’s first stitches were in his head and from a hoe. Little brother was apparently trying to chop his head off.
