BHUBANESWAR, India (Reuters) - An infant boy was married off to his neighbors' dog in eastern India by villagers, who said it will stop the groom from being killed by wild animals, officials and witnesses said on Wednesday.

Around 150 tribespeople performed the ritual recently in a hamlet in the state of Orissa's Jajpur district after the boy, who is under two years old, grew a tooth on his upper gum.

But the authorities say the attack is a sign that they have survived.

Master of the obvious.

The boy and the dog may well be tiger food soon.

HELLO! ! !

America funds programs which multiply the number of tigers. Said tigers kill and then eat the local people.

Those people know who pays for the tigers, forces them to go to work in the forests UNARMED, and effectively made tiger food of them.

Thank you, Liberals, animal rights whackos, and environmental NGOs - you are busily creating more anti-American feelings every day.

This must have been what inspired the Iowa Supreme court. They eliminated all references to "human" in their rewrite of the text of the law that displeased them.

It will be most interesting to see what other downward trends toward the deconstruction of civilization will pop up in Iowa over the next few years.

I expect a full laugh riot as that clown show continues to depilitate itself.
