The turtle must have been bogarting that reefer too much so the dude hammered him for it

I’ve been to Austin, I know what goes on there.

Clear case of cold blooded murder

Well, looks like the dude will need to “shell” out for a big fine.

What kind of fishing requires a hammer? Sounds like he carried it with him for a purpose. I wonder how many times this happened before but with no witnesses.

I see someone else has got into the spirit of this stupidity. Thanks for bringing up the legalities so we can clarify if it s hit, uh, hate crime.

We have to be careful about these things. If the turtles decide to march to the capital, it’ll close traffic for months.
