Hey, as long as we are talking hypotheticals....

What if my magic unicorn, Carl, accidentally speared my next door neighbor and "Leprauchan of the Year" Sean in the chest during yet another rambunctious fight over the remote control for Sean's new big screen?

Carl is an animal, granted, but he can talk (especially trash in his native Slovinian), so would that make him a person to be tried or an animal to be ASPCA'ed?

Sean is better, by the way. The wee people heal remarkably quickly...
