This story is obviously based on the one going around about the sausage
factory owner who shot three inspectors and chased down a fourth (but
failed to catch him, hence the news story).  I don't get the point of
the parody, however --- the original was more interesting, in that you
wonder how many inspectors (or other annoyances) have already gone into
the product...
