Associated Press – 6:26 PM EDT, September 23, 2007:
A man was in custody Sunday after police said he ripped the head off a tame duck that lived in a hotel lobby’s ornamental pond.
Scott D. Clark, a guest at the Embassy Suites Hotel in St. Paul, cornered the duck early Saturday morning, grabbed the bird and ripped its head from its body while a hotel security guard and others watched, police said.
Clark then turned to onlookers and said: “I‘m hungry. I’m gonna eat it,” St. Paul police Sgt. John Wuorinen said.
“He was allegedly drunk,” Wuorinen said.
Well… as long as he eats it…
(good freaking grief)
Simple punishment, make him eat it, guts, feathers, and all.
I have heard of the munchies but jeez!!
Anyone who would rip the head off of a live duck, drunk or not, is not a very stable person. This is the same type of asshole who kicks the dog and beats his wife and kids. Lets hope they put the hammer down on this shithead and he at least spends some time in jail.
Duck!
When’s the last time you were in a clean Embassy Suites?
Yum…. duck with the plum sauce…. still, a bit short-sited, before dispatching a duck its better not to feed them for twelve hours so you don’t poo from the intestines when you dress it, and if you really want to proper duck flavour it doesn’t hurt to hang them somewhere cool for ten days first (before dressing and before plucking, although it does make plucking more difficult…..)
If that was me I’d have kept the duck in my hotel suite, giving him plenty off access to water, then dispatched him using the old stick the head under the broom stick technique…. the only hard part after that would be to find the cold storage to hang the duck for ten days…. still, maybe the parking lot would do….
He should start with the brain. I think the duck’s was bigger than his own by a fair margin. Perhaps it would help. (Damn homo sapiens ruin everything. The duck was, for all intents and purposes, a pet!! And people wonder why I’m a misanthrope …)
Headline… “Man arrested for making the world safe from tame ducks!”
SN, that almost sounds like a setup, just begging for me to say, “What we really need is someone to keep the world safe from LAME ducks.”
I didn’t want to, but I can’t pass up a line like that.
While I don’t condone what this drunk did it is obvious no one here grew up on a farm. Ringing chickens and ducks necks for a Sunday dinner is common as is putting a rake handle across the neck and then stepping on the rake handle to hold it down and then giving a big tug on the chickens feet. I believe it to be much more humane than what happens in a Tyson plant.
He just quacked up!
Someone send him to Washington….
Cripes, now the secret service will pay a visit…..
I wouldn’t mind if that guy got tasered 5 times.
And Ozzy Osbourne, was nowhere to be found for comment.
SHARON!!!
I really hopes he gets nailed. Imagine the type of person he is to even think about that and actually do it.
In general, people’s belief systems don’t radically change no matter what they are doing and it looks like this scumbag would do it even if he wasn’t drunk. I suggest taking off one leg or hand.

And you should know… You meet clients there all the time…

I’m grateful that I didn’t… Growing up in the sticks was bad enough without having to be on a farm to boot…
But this isn’t about us being upset that a duck was killed for food, as happened on the farm… This is about some slack-jawed drunk killing a tame duck for giggles at a hotel.
People wonder why I hate drinking… One word… Drunks…
He was “allegedly” drunk?
