State police are investigating a threat, in the form of a dead goat with a note, aimed at State Assemblyman Gregory Ball (R-Patterson). The black and white goat with horns was found Thursday night on the street outside Balls home with an abusive message tied around its neck.
In broken Spanish, scrawled on a scrap of cardboard, the note called Ball an (expletive) American and was signed MS-13, the name of a notorious Central American gang.
While the two-term assemblyman has supported legislation aimed at deporting violent illegal immigrants, he said he thinks the gang threat is phony because some of the notes Spanish was misspelled.
Ball suspects the message could signal retaliation from some disenfranchised constituents. When he won his seat, in 2006, he knocked out a family line that had been in power in Putnam County for more than 70 years. Ball also said he took on organized crime in Danbury. Perhaps the culprits knew the assemblyman was a long-time 4-H member who used to raise goats like the one dumped by his house.

This is a prank or a hoax.
I don’t know about a goat scrotum ping list, but my husband, who is a home brewer, has a recipe for Goat Scrotum Ale.
A dead goat with a note, better than a fox in a box, or a mouse in your house?
Or a tick on his.....
That’s definitely going on my preferred beverage list.
Do you know how hard it is to find a lap dancer in Africa that can help get that picture out of my mind, and the amount of money it would cost?
remind me to NEVER party with you or your husband!
Goat Scrotum Ale! omg!
you have no idea how many goats are around my camp, now every time I go out into town, ahhhhhhhhhhh!
That would have been a much better sequence of events and title. In that instance, I would immediately suspect Dr. Seuss.
Dead goat ping.
Weren’t me . . . whenever I kill that *bleeping* goat, he will become alligator food.
And this one was a black and white goat...I beleive your favorite goat is brown and white. ;-)

Perhaps better than a horse head in your bed...
Too true, I am trying to find a Spanish (Latin Am) version of Roseatta Stone on Craiglist.
Mucho gusto too soon, eh?
Gotta see it to believe it Ping!
This is probably from an overflow nutball from Ithica.
College kids prepping for Spring Break is what came to mind....
Our politicians won't do anything about this scourge until it personally affects them. It looks like it is starting to.
Unfortunately, this is one of the good guys. But then, that is whom they usually intimidate.
He would be wise to quickly get a pistol permit - both he and his wife - and carry 24/7. He also needs to keep a shotgun close at hand in the house.
Nice, huh? Welcome to the Turd World...
Gee, I wonder why he supports this legislation? Um, just a guess here, but could it be because of their violent actions................you know, like this? LOL!
