70-year-old Oregon farmer eaten by his hogs
On Wednesday morning, Terry V. Garner, a 70-year-old Oregon farmer, went to feed his animals. Several hours later, when he hadn’t returned, a family member went to look for him and found, on the ground of the hog enclosure, his dentures.
Further investigation of the enclosure revealed that the hogs, which each weighed about 700 pounds, had eaten the farmer, leaving behind few uneaten body parts. Now the Coos County Sheriff’s Office is investigating how Garner “ended up in a position where the hogs were able to consume him.†According to the Sheriff's statement:
There are several scenarios being investigated, including that Mr. Garner had a health event, such as a heart attack, which then put him in a position where the hogs could consume him. Another scenario being investigated is that given the age and health of Mr. Garner, that one or more of the hogs knocked Mr. Garner to the ground, whereupon that hogs killed and consumed him.
--snip--
This isn’t the first time hogs have eaten their farmers.
Really, really, really terrible way to die. That carnivore thing cuts both ways, though. I sincerely hope he had a massive stroke/heart/aneurism or something that killed him before his knees started to buckle.

6. My grandfather had an expression when you asked where somebody was
"He went to take a shit and the hogs ate him"
As kids we always thought it was hilarious.
Doesn't sound quite as funny now.

7. We do we eat animals? Because they would eat us if they could.

11. wow...this just, weird.
I'm not sure even a "B" director in Hollywood, could come up with a horror plot like this.

12. My late mother grew up on a farm in Clinton county, Iowa and she mentioned a few times about a neighbor of theirs who went out one morning to feed the hogs, had a stroke or heart attack in the pig pen and ended up literally feed for the hogs. Domestic pigs can be very scary animals. Don't believe me? Get between a sow and her piglets and see if you survive five seconds.
My condolences of course, but I hope the old guy was a (D) voter.

Actually, it's been the plot of a couple of TV shows already, including Chris Carter's Millennium.
And remember the Wizard of Oz when Dorothy falls into the pig corral and had to be rescued by Burt Lahr? There was a reason his character was so scared.

I remember that Dorothy scene. My Grannie insisted it was no laughing manner, the scene really horrified her. She grew up on an old family farm.

Yeah, it's funny how when the primitives come into contact with an aspect of reality they refuse to recognize it.

In the novel "Hannibal", and the movie based on it, one of the main characters gets eaten alive by hogs.

Would you eat a pig that ate a people? How do you know you haven't already.
Points to ponder.

Eventually, if not sooner, we all become food for something.

Try a wild bore. Yet you libs shit your pants and clutch your pearls when hunters shoot them because their populations are out of control.

Important safety tip for small children and idiot, urban-dwelling liberals who, lack the sense to keep away from an animal and it's litter.

Not true, Idiot. Get out of your 2 sq. mi. urban shithole bubbleland and you'd be amazed at what happens. Heh,....H/T to BEG: You can almost hear the clutching of pearls with this one.
