Are The Three Little Pigs Innocent?

Today we are going to talk about an interesting topic that was brought up in my school. Recently, we have been talking about the Three Little Pigs story. We started by reading the original story where the wolf eats the pigs and the 3rd pig tricks him with the turnips, apples, and the fair. I am pretty sure you Equatos know about that (BTW, Equatos won 3 to 1 (studiers).) But today, we are going to talk about two other things that we looked at. One thing we looked at is something that I am sure you have read before, it is the wolf's perspective. If you haven't, you can read it with only the text here. The other thing we looked at was actually an ad that TED thought was so, they posted it. You can watch it here. The rest of this blog will only make sense if you watch/read those, so do that now. Okay, let's start. The Wolf's perspective one is a little to out of the ordinary to make sense. There is no way that the wolf would be like: OH! Look, there is a dead pig there, might as well eat it even though I just ate one a couple minutes ago; it just wouldn't happen. Also, seriously? The press didn't like the sneeze and sugar story so they jazzed it up and put you in jail...really? So for me, that is out of the picture. Now the one that TED showed I thought could actually happen if A-Animals could do this and B- if this would actually happen. If you didn't understand the video one, basically the Three Little Pigs wanted an excuse to pay their mortgage, so they made up that whole story. Also, it said that the wolf had asthma. You wouldn't blame someone if they had asthma, would you? Anyway, I think if this actually happened then the one that TED had would be real, otherwise, this blog wouldn't exist. I will put a poll on my blog asking which one you think is real.
