A two-panel comic. Panel one: a blonde woman with a clipboard asks a red-haired man, "Sir, would you like to protect large farm animals from abuse." He earnestly replies, "We have to stop them!" Panel two: a folded newspaper with the headline "PROP. 439 PASSES! Only large animals now protected. Bunny torture proclaimed national pastime" — revealing the well-meaning ballot measure had a perverse loophole that legalized cruelty to small animals. Votey: the same smiling woman cheerfully holds up a spiked mace, saying "The system works," implying she now intends to torture small creatures with it.
