Default Pigs eat day-old baby

http://www.news24.com/News24/Africa/...116166,00.html


A resident said she heard the wailing of a baby early on Sunday, but by the time she got to the isolated spot, she found two pigs eating the child.
"I ran back, raised an alarm, but by the time other residents got to the spot, the baby was almost totally finished by the pigs as we found only one arm left," the woman added.

"It is possible that the mother is a prostitute who could not afford the upkeep of a baby and engage in prostitution at the same time," policeman James Iginla said.

"Go back and raise the alarm"?

How 'bout "Boot the pig in the face."

Is this story true? I wonder because there are a lot of related pig stories on that page, it's like the sequel to Snatch

That's the reason there are thread titles...this one was pretty much bang on the money...don't like the sound of the title, don't read the associated story.

It's this kind of thing that appears to be making headlines lately.

Unfortunate but true.

Point taken.

Not trying to be the moral majority or anything but man that story turned my gut. I saw the title and read it anyways so if you guys want to go down that road in the future you can be sure I won't be along.
