    Labour’s weak attitude to immigration is to blame here just letting these thieves just fly into the country!

    Why is everyone jumping to the psychopath narrative? Is there background on this guy? Why bring up crying children? This feels like a Phy Op to me and some people replying in this post are glowing a bit…

    Edit: Finally after everyone spent all day being mad at me for asking for information, one of you got me some. Thanks alekwithak!

      Because killing animals, especially over petty shit, and especially especially in front of others while disregarding their reactions is literally psychopath shit. Your insistence that this is some kind of ‘Phy Op’ just makes you look like one, too. Edit: and to call people out for ‘glowing’ is not helping your case, either.

      This would only be true, if that piece of shit had stolen the seagull it’s chip or if the seagulls had smashed more than two million people to death.

    as someone who’s had their food stolen by a seagull a few times i once found myself in a fit of petty rage googling “can i kill a seagull” and the answer is no, like legally you cannot, they’re protected birds

        it does not. Seagulls are protected in: UK, Ireland, all of Europe, all of North America, Mexico, Australia, Japan, Russia, and probably more but i can’t be bothered to go past the first few Google searches to find out

            I feel like the default is that you aren’t allowed to kill animals. Not as in most laws outlaw killing any animal, just that there are probably a lot of laws about randomly killing animals that aren’t like tiny bugs and stuff. Like you can’t just kill a deer unless you have a hunting permit. You can’t catch fish without a fishing license. Sure, you’re probably allowed to kill animals on your property that are a nuisance or anywhere in defense, but I wouldn’t just assume I can kill a random animal.

              I think there’s a clear difference between an animal that’s a known nuisance and any other. If a rat and an emu both wander into my yard, the rat’s life is forfeit, but I’m not gonna fuck with the emu for multiple reasons.

    Not only is he cruel, he is actually participating in making more powerful Seagulls, the surviving seagulls will be the ones that can steal chips and survive being thrown at a wall. Beware the terminator seagull soon attacking your chips, the walls will not survive!

    Humans:

    • Takes all the fish for themselves
    • has bussiness dump to birds perfectly edible but to humans not commercially pretty enough fish bits in the trash.
    • builds apartments on the gulls original habitat

    “wHy Do ThESe SEaguLl KeEP STEalinG FrOm Us”

    I also grew up at the coast and yes they are a menace. But as the saying goes fuck around, find out.

    Imagine if we restored and maintained the habitat and did a daily collection of fish waste to dump near that habitat.

    As an aussie who has had many foods taken by birds including a fucking eagle that stole my burger out of my hands, this is some sociopath shit

    That’s crazy behavior honestly. Don’t let that guy have access to kids, they wouldn’t make it long.
