England Fights the Good Fight in the Squirrel War

Adorable but wimpy posh squirrels vs. their rowdy tough-as-nails hillbilly cousins:
WHO WILL BE THE VICTOR?

Loyal British citizens are being encourage to catch and eat American invader macho gray squirrels because they are decimating the population of cute but decidedly wimpy English red ones.

There are two camps on the tastiness of the yank rodents. Some report "Their lovely flavor tasted of the nuts they nibbled" while others find they have "a greasy texture and unpleasant taste".

Circus Circus, JJ80, doggett, and other English members of this board are encouraged to immediately hunt down a few gray squirrels and eat 'em up - for Queen and Country.

Note: Squirrel-flavored crisps don't count.

EDIT: My God, those English quirrels are adorable!

I'll save the country *Cpt. Britain theme music...if it had any*

I'm too fond of Doctor Who, Ashes to Ashes and 2000AD to let it fall in to the hands of yank squirrels!!!!

It's okay, I know you're scared. We're all scared...

But if we stick together we can over come any obstacle...
