worst than rats. they get in your house chew on the wires burn the house down. they sleep under the hood of your car at night put nuts and acorns in your air cleaner your throtle is stuck open your going for a fast ride. or perhaps they chew on you gas line or wires. but they have cute bushy tails. so no one cares. if you saw rats walking down the street everyone would go crazy

If you're going to hunt squirrels, that's fine by me. Just use the right tool. A BB gun is not it. Its underpowered and cruel.

Freaking squirrel racists. When a person has a "thing" against any wildlife species, it's never about those animals -- it's always about that person needing to hate.

try being up in newhampshire in a rural area and its 20 degrees below zero and one of thoes suckers chews on the power lines and your without heat and your pipes freeze and if your old have an oxegen pump and cant afford a generator and it takes 2 days to get the power back. so you freeze and die. or your house burns down because you knocked over a candle. or you have no water because you have a well with an electrc pump. it happens every winter. stick to hugging trees idiot. or watching disney cartoons.

bernie madoff = cute squirrel type with bushy tail able to wreak havoc and survie under everyones nose for years. common thief = rat rodent with no cute bushy tail. usually caught right away and destroyed or put in cages. m.o. usually sneaks around at night in the shadows. squirrel m.o. operates in broad day lite under everyones noses but ohh so charming.
