Ending the Age of Squirrel Racism

Have you ever wondered why squirrels get such a bad rap? I have, and I find it most tragic. These poor creatures are trying to survive just like those sweet little birds in your backyard. Yet, we hinder there rights at every corner. Let me show you.


Bird feeders. Whoever invented these marvelous contraptions surely did not mean for them to become a hindrance to the squirrel race. But now we have come up with all the contraptions to discourage the poor creatures. Squirrels need to eat, and now they're mad for food, destroying your feeder for a bite to eat. We have lowered their self esteem and turned them into some rodent or something! Okay maybe they are a rodent, but they are a favored place in our society (just not in our backyards).


Scrat, the lovable saber toothed squirrel from the Ice Age movies. He holds a dear place in all of our hearts. We root for him in theater, but what if he were to show up in your backyard? Would you shoo him away empty stomached? NO! What if Rocky the Flying Squirrel came? Would you then? Heavens no! Discrimination is in your hearts, and needs to be taken out!

After that you must think I'm obsessed with squirrels, and I'm not. I'm am however, obsessed with injustices. Don't turn away these creatures because of their looks, they want to be as civilized as you are.  But years and centuries of being treated like scum they have turned and became scum. There is hope. If the next generation of humans change there ways, perhaps these little guys will change theirs.
