Jennings on NYC ‘Executing’ ‘Peanut the Squirrel’: ‘Absurd Abuse of Gov’t Overreach’

JENNINGS: "Well, I‘m here tonight to speak on behalf of Peanut the squirrel. God rest his tiny soul. Not since the squirrel that was taught to water-ski has the squirrel caught the nation's attention like this. Now, this squirrel was squirrel-napped and murdered by the state of New York. An absurd abuse of government overreach. There are 40 million rats or something in New York and they executed the only one trained to wear a cowboy hat and had an Instagram account. My condolences. To Mark Longo, who cared for Peanut for seven years, and to the cowardly neighbors who filed the complaints about Mr. Longo's animals, which also included Fred the raccoon, I ask, why are you the way that you are? I hope you are happy, you monsters. RIP Peanut."
