that's kind of what I thought; the holier than thous insisted that food stores not sell wine, beer, or liquor so dad would buy food and not be tempted to blow his paycheck on the demon rum.

Did you know that rabbits are among the few animals where males fight to the death? S'truth. Most (not all) species are encoded so that when one male gives up the other one can't kill him. Male rabbits (wild rabbits) will tear each other's chests open with their hind feet.

Have you never seen or read Watership Down?

Gahhh! I got though 20 pages 40 + years ago and that was too much.

He reminds me of a quote by Flannery O'Conner. " Everywhere I go, I'm asked if the universities stifle writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them."

The animated movie is quite decent. Anyway lots of rabbit fights to the death therein . . .
