Chickens are animals... tasty animals...

Way to go Mr. Dutton! Good stuff!!

Only in Lawrence County. Thank you LawCo for making us look good over here in Morgan County.

This one ought to make the AP wire and be carried widely.

LawCo has created a new classification for living, breathing beings other than Animal. WOW, who are the dumb twits on that jury? They'll all be cockfighting tonight on the square!

When the birds all go to Molting they have a chicken and egg festival.

Only 2-3 people out of the original 16-17 arrested actually live in Lawrence County...Looks to me like it shed some light on how many chicken fight fans there are in the countys SURROUNDING Lawrence County.....How many came from Morgan County MR. William...and Ms. Gail.....how many were from YOUR county...lol

I mean seriously....Why do you want to stand on the other side of a county line and for some idiotic reason think you and yours are any different, much less better, because you live on one side or the other, and then further PROVE it with your keyboard by unknowingly sticking your foot in your mouths..?l

I guess chickens are plants, or some awfully large bacteria. LOL
