1. These are special Tasers. Laser-guided. To get them in the balls

7. You don't need laser guidance to hit balls that big.

2. Good idea.

I've had it with those pesky squirrels disrupting campus forums!

6. Damn right!

Otherwise, the next thing you know, squirrels will be living in the trees.

8. Most squirrels get all squirrely when a person gets close...

Surely BB guns would be more effective (and ensures the animals get a lifetime dose of copper into their diet)?

Especially red squirrels. Those things were genetically engineered by Satan...

10. Red squirrels are dying out here.

Their habitat is being taken over by grey ones.
