Today in News from the Isle of Man:

Someone is going around the Isle of Man shooting wild goats.

Some other people are annoyed that a man is going around the Isle of Man shooting wild goats. This issue was raised in Parliament this week, because apparently we have nothing better to discuss.

http://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/no-laws-surrounding-feral-goat-shooting/

Parliament's conclusion? There are no laws about shooting goats. Go ahead, shoot all the goats you want.

P.S. I find this hilarious, but the "lack of news" is a real problem on the island. Why? Because there is actual news! We are trying to get laws put in line with the rest of the UK to legalize abortion, Brexit is (maybe?) happening, our tax system is a house of cards, one company has a monopoly on ferry service to and from the island...but the local news prefers the goat story!

I thought this was only the case in the US but apparently it's just a human thing ;-)
