I'm so disgusted right now

[Melo]

So I find out today, that the lady in charge of the on-campus apartments pointed out to her CA's (Community assistants) that there were large birds nests all over the apartment complex, and to take care of them.

These nests, were indeed, all over the place, but the birds, I think they were some kind of martins, sing so pretty, and all the nests had about 6-8 babies in them. Well, a couple of the CA's got out golf clubs, walked around, and knocked all the nests down, and the played 'golf' with the babies. Now all the mommy and daddy birds are going crazy and flying around.

I am absolutley apalled. They played golf with baby birds. They kept count. They killed 71 baby birds. Then found a falcon... with a broken wing. So they killed it. It's so sad.

Luckily the nest outside of my apartment was too high for them to get to, so the birds and babies are ok. Theyre out there singing right now.

The lad yin charge wanted me to work for her next semester. I was thinking, I can pick my own hours, and not have to waste money on gas to do this job, but after her ordering her CA's to kill baby birds. I cant do it. It's sick.

[LoyalFan]

Melo,

I agree that what they did was atrocious. It was ALSO illegal! Report the offenders, including the official that let it happen, to the local law enforcement, humane society, and yes, (GAG!) even PETA.
If you're as outraged as you seem, rightly, to be, GET INVOLVED!
Try to tape the jerks admitting or bragging about it.

Let us know what happens. Awaiting positive report.

Were they black? If so, they were starlings. Starling (like pigeons) = flying poop machine.

Look on the bright side, when the bird flu hits and people are keeling over right and left drowning in their own phlegm, your dorm will be safer.;)

[jacru]

The significant thing is not the loss of birds but the presence of warped, sick, sadistic individuals. Animal cruelty laws are in place more for a society's protection than an animal's. Those who would harm helpless animals would also harm helpless people.

Good point Jacru. Most serial sadistic murderers start out by torturing animals.

they really killed a falcon?

71?

That's gotta be close to par.

Exactly what I was thinking. Report them...Getting rid of the nests is one thing, but taking golf clubs to the baby birds is a little much, and a little disturbing.

I would think 71 birdies would have to be some kind of record.

How someone that describes himself as a hunter and fisherman can, with a good conscience, tell someone to call PETA is beyond me. I agree, these kids got out of hand, but call the cops, not PETA. PETA is the wrong answer.

[Taxman71]

I understand taking out starlings with the RedRyder bb gun, but a golf club? I smell another Jeffery Dahmer in the making.

[TUSooner]

That is truly disgusting, as are the guys who did it.
But not PETA, no, not PETA.

[Hamhock]

It's an outrage!!!

Taking the lives of innocent baby birds!?!? Just because they can't survive outside their nest doesn't mean that anyone who doesn't want them should be able to rip them from their nests and mutilate them.

Oh, wait...

[SoonerInKCMO]

Ignore the anti-PETA naysayers. Am I a PETA member? No. Have I ever given them donations? No. Do I even agree with most of their stances? No. But, if you want someone to really put the hammer down on these sadistic ****s with a white hot righteous fury, PETA will fit the bill. They'll be on the bird killers like white. on. rice.

do you have specific proof that she told them to kill the birds, or that she asked them to get rid of the nests?

Getting rid of nests with baby birds will result in their death anyway,

The only thing about PETA is they're not going to go after the people that did it (and the person that asked them too), they'll try and bring down the entire university for something a select few did.

see if you can figure out where they disposed of the dead birds and try to isolate them before the trash men pick it up.

What hamhock said. If people got as disgusted over killing babies as they do over killing little birdies...

But, in any case, I agree that it is absolutely an ugly, white-trash-y, low-forehead thing to do. Your CAs must be some very disturbed people. I'd consider moving out of that apartment complex, if I were you. No telling what they'd do if they had to fix your bathtub.

Bottom line is that you are supporting an organization that wishes to elevate animal rights to the level of human rights. (Actually, higher, PETA doesn't roll out when dead babies end up in a dumpster behind a clinic). If PETA had their way, all hunting, fishing, commercial farming would be abolished. These people are class A kooks.

I would think 71 birdies would have to be some kind of record.Actually, in 98 we had a huge windstorm. It wasn't a tornado, but close. My parents had a huge tree in their yard. The wind shook the tree so hard that they awoke the next morning to about 200 dead and dying birds in the yard.

No, those were not what these people killed.

I really think they were some kind of Martin. Purple-ish bue, with maybe some green. They had light colored bellys, and a swooped tail. Theyre pretty tiny. I'm still trying to figure it out. I just woke up, but when I get dressed and go out, I'll get some pictures of them, their nests and some dead babies. :(

[Penguin]

I just hope that this turns into a "liberals want to kill all of your babies" thread.

So uh...did you know that all liberals want to kill poor babies? ;)

[SicEmBaylor]

Well, on the one hand I detest birds and the nasty creatures should be wiped from the Earth (see my bird jihad post in melo's thread where she feeds these birds).

However, there is a tasteful way to get rid of birds (the way I did with a pellet gun, beer, and a cat to carry them away) and a distasteful way of doing it with golf clubs.

This does seem in somewhat bad taste.

[Melo]

But these are pretty, and cute, and not as nasty as some other nasty birds. How could you kill them?

Your description more represents common swallows. If their nests were made of mud, that clinches it.

And I haven't read the whole thread, but I did see enough "outrage" to make me wanna puke.

Here's the deal. I've had to destroy many, many nests in my time. Sometimes there's eggs in them, sometimes babies, sometimes empty. If there's babies or eggs, they must be euthanized. While I don't recommend death by 7-iron, it's much less cruel than letting the babies slowly die, or get tortured to death by the local cat/s. Now if the people out doing the hacking are laughing about it, I'd probably take my own 1-iron upside their head.

I have swallows who continuously nest under the gooseneck of my stock trailers. Every time I haul cattle, I have to rip the nest off, and fastball the little birdies up against the barn wall. It's quick and humane, and better than having the little birdies fall out of the nest to slowly die of heat or dehydration.

I love watching the birds work, but they are a major nuisance. In this case, the property owner should have had the nests destroyed BEFORE the eggs had hatched. Either way though, there's a lot worse crap going on in the hood than bludgeoning baby birds to death.

I agree with you, Dean. If its a problem, deal with it, but do it properly. Don't let a couple college boys go out and make a game out of it. The fact that they counted how many they killed, then went around bragging about it... That's what gets me. And they killed a falcon. Just because it had a broken wing. I know thats against the law.

Oh, I have no doubt these little pricks enjoyed themselves immensely - which karma will take care of down the road.

And a bird with a broken wing should be euthanized. That falcon would never have been able to live naturally, and keeping a captive falcon is much crueler than offing it. I'm not agreeing with the punkass attitude of the nimrods doing the deed, I'm just agreeing that the deed needed to be done.

Elementary, my Dear Watson...

You see, the objective, as it were, is to cause the maximum discomfort and, yes, even consternation, to befall the miscreants. By involving each and every agency that might expose the rapscallions to the cold and unforgiving light of investigation and, dare we hope, righteous retribution, we better our chances of seeing them swing from the gibbet after the next assizes.

An added fillip (the hard sauce on the plum pudding, one might say,) is the wicked little frisson, almost orgasmic in nature, one feels when he has successfully pitted one enemy against another; like using one thug as the very cudgel with which to severely maul another of his ilk.

Thus, by setting all extant "dogs" on these malodorous malefactors, we quite tidily scotch two snakes in one blow.

I didn't understand 3/4 of this crap. I do understand that you advocate involving an organization that seeks to abolish all hunting and fishing. They even wish to prevent blind people from using seeing-eye dogs. They are a domestic terrorist organization.

Sorry. I was bored and reading through some of the old threads. I am a CA (well was...I quit yesterday). I was not there when the guys were killing the baby birds, but I pretty much know what happened. I know they were "playing golf" with them, but it was not really golf, it was that they did not want to touch the birds. I still think it is wrong that they did this.

About the falcon. I am pretty sure I know who Melo got her information from, and all the guy CAs hate this person. So I have a feeling they just told him that to make him angry, which they do pretty much every day.

OK, Mr.Hock, I'll put it in language that allows you at least a fighting chance at comprehension (that means "Ohhhhhh, now I get it"...as you slap your forehead.).
