I'm not a fan of pigeons. But someone going out of their way to do something this sadistic to a living thing is all kinds of serial-killer-predictor type fucked up.

Yeah honestly the kind of person who would do this should be killed. There is nothing good that will come from them continuing to be here with the rest of us.

Did you know they are a type of dove? And they only exist in cities because humans brought them there.

I'd happily beat someone to death over something like this

You wanna see animal abuse?

I'll fucking show you abuse.

Glue them to the wall first

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'd see red if I witnessed something like that.

Do you glue animals to walls?

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.org 2 points 1 hour ago

Only if they are human animals and only if they ask me to UwU

I am, and if them not being vegan is a problem for you then put me in coach.

[–] Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.org -1 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

The point is that being that (rightfully) angry at animal abuse and not being vegan is fucking hypocritical.

I like how right after i called you out on being a hypocrite you use the same word against someone else, you're such a hypocrite. Thanks for the ban though lol. Snowflakes are gonna flake i guess.
