Texas Hunting Statutes
In light of the recent unfortunate events concerning the Vice President, a new bill has been introduced in the Texas legislature as follows:
Bill to Regulate the Hunting and Harvesting of Attorneys.
370.01 Any person with a valid in-state rodent or snake hunting license may also hunt and harvest attorneys for recreational and sport (non-commercial) purposes.

370.03 Stuffed or mounted attorneys must have a state health department inspection for rabies, and vermin.
370.04 The willful killing of attorneys with a motor vehicle is prohibited, unless such vehicle is an ambulance being driven in reverse.
