Trojan Man

An Oklahoma Senator is aiming to legalize cock fighting. Here's the catch - the roosters would wear boxing gloves. And have little vests with electronic sensors.

"It's like the fencing that you see on the Olympics, you know, where they have little balls on the ends of the swords and the fencers wear vests. That's the same application that would be applied to the roosters."

Yeah, and no one watches fencing in the Olympics.

In 2002, state question 687 addressed this issue, making cockfighting illegal. "Cockfighting [had] been legal in the Sooner State since the 1960s when a judge ruled that fowl were not covered by animal cruelty laws because chickens are not animals."

Chickens aren't animals? Someone failed high school biology.
