So, At no time are ground squirrels considered pets. They are nothing but vermin. My neighbor has them in his back yard and he calls them his pets. Them nasty little vermin dont like the food in there yard so they have decided to eat through our rock wall and live off of my wifes tomato plants and other great eats in her garden. Today I took matters into my own hands, Layed out peanut butter, and other great eats to attract the vermin than opened fire like the killing fields. BAM, (vermin dead)  BOOM, (vermin dead) RAT-A-TAT-TAT (3 vermin dead). I am feeling like I was in the Army all over again until I heard those words, "Police Officer, drop your weapon" Who the hell knew you couldn't discharge weapons at vermin in the city limits? Is that posted somewhere?  Well,thats where this story ends except there are still vermin in the neighbors yard sneakin into mine.
