Just another reason why you don't mess with Carrie Underwood!!!

A couple of weeks ago we reported how Carrie was pissed about an ag gag bill getting passed by Tennessee lawmakers.

The ag gag bill would've made it basically impossible for animals rights activists to secretly document abuse.

Carrie was so mad back then she said she would show up at Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam's house if it was passed!

Well, Bill made sure that didn't happen.

His office has released this statement:

A man from Western Pennsylvania is in legal trouble for shooting a buck from a busy Walmart parking lot.

That sounds super dangerous!

Arcangelo "Angelo" Bianco Jr., 40, is going to trial for reckless endangerment and state game charges.

Wildlife conservation officers said that last November, Bianco shot several rounds at a buck in a Walmart parking lot so close to employees that deer blood was splattered on trailers that were being unloaded!!

That's insane! Why was he shooting so near people?? Did he have something personal against the deer?

He continued shooting at the fleeing deer until it died and he later retrieved it from the side of a road nearby.

Pretty sure this guy is gonna lose his gun license and have to pay some serious fines at a minimum!

Check out the video (above) to learn a little more about this crazy hunter guy!

Carrie Underwood is a champion for those who cannot fight for themselves: the animals!

We previously mentioned that a bill had been passed by the Tennessee legislature that would force whistleblowers to release undercover video of animal abuse to the police within 48 hours of capturing it.

The problem is that animal rights activists say that 48 hours isn't enough time to show an ongoing pattern of abuse.

Because the bill was passed, it's now up to Governor Bill Haslam to sign it into law or veto it.

Apparently, Lauryn Hill and taxes do not mix. But unfortunately for her, that’s not really an option.

The former Fugees singer, who has been looking at three years in prison due to tax evasion, could in fact avoid her time inside thanks to a $1 million Sony record deal.

Lauryn owes close to $504,000 in federal taxes on her $1.8 million income earned between 2005 and 2007. But things were looking up at her Monday proceeding in Newark, New Jersey.

Assistant US Attorney Sandra Moser said that Lauryn’s five song Sony deal could be the solution. Judge Madeline Cox decided to postpone the singer’s sentencing until May 6th, giving her the added time to pay off her taxes. The Judge said:

Oh no… we hope this doesn't jeopardize the case against him!

Suspected co-conspirator of the Boston attacks Dzhokhar Tsarnaev recently CONFESSED to his and his brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev's role in the terror plot and detailed the driving forces behind the horrific incident…

But he did so BEFORE being read his Miranda rights AKA before he was advised by the law of his constitutional right to remain quiet until a lawyer is appointed on his behalf!

After about 16 hours of questioning, a magistrate judge and a representative from the U.S. Attorney's office reportedly arrived to Tsarnaev's hospital room and read him his rights, at which time he STOPPED talking to officials.

The question that now remains is IF any of what Dzhokhar Tsarnaev said prior

If you wanna smoke pot, then smoke pot!

At least, that's what Susan Sarandon thinks should be the case in world! She's always been pro-weed and she always answers ANY question you throw at her! Basically, she says this:

"I would like to see everybody be able to smoke pot."

Of course, she add much more to it in the interview (above)! This isn't surprising because voiced robocalls in Denver for Amendment 64, the Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol Act of 2012!

Still, it's nice to hear someone talk a little bit about pot with poise and clarity — instead of through a haze of smoke and a fist of Cheetos!

LOLz! Get it, Susan!

We previously mentioned that there has been a lot going on in the world of politics regarding ag gag bills.

These are laws that would make it illegal to undercover document animal abuse and not turn it over to police within 48 hours.

The problem with the law is that 48 hours doesn't give an undercover whistleblower enough time to gather sufficient evidence to show a pattern of constant abuse.

Well Tennessee lawmakers have recently passed a similar bill and Carrie Underwood is very disappointed!
