SALMON, Idaho (Reuters) - Police in Idaho Falls said on Tuesday they have told a 34-year-old man to stop wearing a bunny suit in public after residents complained that he has been frightening children.

Police warned Idaho Falls resident William Falkingham after a woman said she saw him dressed in the costume, peeking at her young son from behind a tree and pointing his finger like a gun, according to a police report.

An investigation of the sighting led officers to question other neighbors, "who expressed that they were greatly disturbed by Falkingham and his bunny suit," the report said.

Neighbors also reported that Falkingham occasionally wears a tutu with the bunny suit, police said in a statement.

Ordinarily I wouldn’t support government control of what people wear, however ridiculous, but here we have a rabbit Falkingham in the bushes.

There is an organization out there called the Furries, made up of people who get their jollies by dressing up as animals.
They hold an annual convention here in Pittsburgh, during which a walk downtown can be quite....umm....interesting.

I am sure the Furries have a Civil Rights Division with lots of Lawyahs who will shortly be coming to his defense.

Agreed, Pedophile written all over his actions. What a creep. Police should be doing a background check on this nutcase.

I just hope it wasn’t a Playboy Bunny suit.

Here in the neighboring state of Washington, they empty onto the streets from the mental hospitals these sorts of public nuisances all the time.

One more thing for which to thank Democrats. They think it's just too, too cruel to confine people who are clearly unable to function in society and who might actually be dangerous.

When I lived in Idaho Falls, we had a guy that dressed in a Hollywood cowboy outfit, with lots of silver and turqoise and two big six-shooters in low-hanging holsters. He walked around and nobody ever said a thing to him because that’s the way they rolled in IF back then.

My sister-in-law lives there now and says that the town is full of McMansions, SUVs, and people that are always in each others’ business. She hates it. Her husband was stationed there in the Navy too and he says its nothing like it used to be.

I’m going to assume that bunny suit guy is a little eccentric and the mom is just a busybody who added the “he threatened my kid with his finger gun” line to add some importance to her complaint.
