New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie showed a classroom of children today just who’s in charge in the Garden State. It’s not quite helping a cat down from the roof, but Newark Mayor Cory Booker can’t be everywhere. Besides, Booker probably would have captured the spider alive and found it a new home.

@GovChristie Gov. you should have made sure that the spider wasn't on some endangered list.

We don’t imagine Christie spends a lot of time worrying about what PETA thinks of him.

@GovChristie I hope PETA doesn't see this video!

Update via Jeryl Bier:
Christie may not care what PETA thinks, but that doesn’t mean the group won’t go ahead and weigh in on his “thoughtless act.”
PETA: Shame on Christie for killing that spider http://t.co/OE6adOEKCi
