Alabama rednecks kill 15-foot, 1,000-pound gator, give all the glory to God.

CAMDEN, Alabama – Mandy Stokes and husband John Stokes, brother-in-law Kevin Jenkins and his children Savannah, 16, and Parker, 14, brought a monster alligator to the check-in station at Roland Cooper State Park near Camden in Wilcox County. Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Biologists had no trouble measuring the beast at 15 feet even, but they had to call for some relief when trying to weigh it. “We give all the glory to God. Ten men couldn’t have done what we did,” he said. Mandy Stokes added, “If it wasn’t for the grace of God, we never could have done it. At one time during this whole thing, I honestly thought, you know what; we didn’t sign up for that.”

What the hell? People in Alabama take their entire family alligator hunting? And they think God helped them kill this thing? God’s probably up there thinking this:

“Wow. I give the world this majestic beast, he lives on earth peacefully in the swamps for 50-years, and then you hayseeds come along and put a bullet in his brain. Thanks Stokes family!”   

And hey, Mandy, I have news for ya. The gator didn’t sign up for this either.

Anyway, here’s a lovely slideshow of the monster gator, which I find sort of sad. Such a beautiful creature, now probably turned into Gator Kabob by the Stokes Clan of Camden, Alabama.
