Cockadoodledoo, Toodle-oo
There are two great things in the Daily News' story today about the arrest yesterday of an alleged cockfighting organizer in Chatsworth. First, it says that "cockfighting paraphernalia" was found at the residence by investigators with the Los Angeles Animal Cruelty Task Force. I have to wonder, what is cockfighting paraphernelia? Little padded gloves and gawdy gold championship belts?
Second, the last quote of the story from the neighbor who was just thankful to finally get a good night's rest. Did the resident not think that crowing roosters were a bit out of the ordinary in the city? Maybe that's the person who will collect big for tipping the authorities.
