We used to vacation in Hilton Head, South Carolina. And, I was the youngest of 7 kids, so I knew all the big-kid words at a very young age. Well, you can understand my dismay and confusion when I used to see signs down in South Carolina that read: "S.C. Law: Please do not feed or molest the alligators" I could understand telling people not to feed the alligators, but I never imagined that people in South Carolina would MOLEST a poor alligator!
