I guess the only reason the headline doesn't specify is that it is a Florida local news site
Yeah, and it took way too long to figure that out on my part.
I thought this was a free country?
Why is this site pretending this is a new story? It happened in 2023 .
For whatever reason the source article doesn't convey this. Although having just typed my thoughts, I realize you by "this site" you probably mean the source here. Maybe someone local knows more about that "news" source?
Yeah, in retrospect, I guess I wasn't very clear there, was I.
I think you were clear enough, I am just used to folks not reading and the reference you made meaning "here" but in this case I was not reading 🫣
It's Florida, isn't it? I don't even have to open the link to know that this is in Florida.
Didn’t want to read the article. Wanted to see what state it was.
Opossum should've castrated him and remove him from the gene pool
The crime? Exposing his anus in public. They didn't even charge him for littering? Is public defecation not a crime there?
Assuming this is Florida, it's not like he read a book or something, he merely pooped on a dead animal. They had to charge with something.
Florida is a literal swamp shit hole, so no.
All of you shaming and poking fun at this guy... Like we haven't all been there before.
Exactly, let he who has a clean possum throw the first... well.
Not possums. We all did squirrels in college. Sure, a few raccoons...
At least I had enough courage to crap on a wolverine.
You really can do anything with your life.
Guess how many articles there are when you click the tag.
Are they sure the opossum was dead? I've literally seen one play dead for over a week on the side of the road before..
With that said, I have never felt the urge to defecate on roadkill...
You pee on an ant bed and 6 months later you are defecating on road kill
Gateway toilet.
If the possum turns out to be live, it may become a gateway bidet.
You're right, let me go mark the calendar..
This is the most efficient way of testing whether or not it's a ruse. Everyone in Florida knows this.
Because you aren't Secretary of Health.
Picking...
Opossum is irrelevant here, I think.
Ah, my enemy.
A bear and a rabbit are taking a shit in the woods, the bear says to the rabbit "do you have a problem with shit sticking to your fur"
"No, that's never been an issue" says the rabbit
"Good" says the bear and picks up the rabbit and wipes his ass with it.
