About sex on TV? About all the race related violence that is sadly still prevalent? …Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

Well, the revolting pigs are at it again. The swine soldiers of the animal revolution have moved from Norfolk, England to Belgrade, Serbia. This time, they burned down a house! Talk about pissed off piggies. The three pigs, obviously angry with man and ready to fight, broke out of their pen and headed towards the house.
