    I assumed the dude grabbed it as it was flying out with the chip and just slammed it quickly without much thought. He might have a horrible day/week, just wanted to have some chippies and this happened. Meh. 🤷

        What about a person who works in a meat processing plant? Killing hundreds of chickens a day. Are they a psychopath?

          What about them?

          Killing hundreds of chickens a day.

          Yes, for food.

          Are they a psychopath?

          Why would they be a psychopath?

            Sorry, I think I got my wires crossed between your post and someone else’s. You were not claiming the person killing the seagull was a psychopath.

              I called him a psycho, yes. He did kill for revenge, not for food. And in front of children.

              I don’t have any issues with killing for food and I love a good steak.Killing as pests eradication is also OK before you ask. This was neither though.

                  I am not ok with either. I wouldn’t kill either.

                  Pest control works differently. You are trying to kill as many individuals in a very short time span to cripple the population growth. Even if seagulls were classed as pest, killing one has nothing to do with pest control.

                    Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you were ok with killing anything, bad wording on my part.

                    When is killing a pest consider pest control and when is it not pest control?

        Why can’t you just say, “I want this innocent man jailed because I want his life to be hell”. It’s easy buddy

        Bro, it’s not the same and you know it. Equating people and animals only means you have less empathy for people.

          I am not equating anything to anything. Smashing skulls because you have a “bad day” is objectively wrong.
