Weird story about a guy shooting pigeons with an air rifle in downtown Pittsburgh that caused a panic. A SWAT team was called out, the downtown was closed down for hours and the Mayor donned a bullet-proof vest.
All over a guy with an air rifle.

For every pigeon you kill, ten more will rise up to take its place.

brought the weapon to work to chase pigeons away from broken windows on the building's roofWouldn't they be better off by fixing the broken windows?

"...he's up on the roof with his boids. He keeps boids. Dirty... disgusting... filthy... lice-ridden boids. You used to be able to sit out on the stoop like a person. Not anymore! No, sir! Boids!... You get my drift?"

Hey, I saw that line in a movie. "The Producers", I think.

Hmmmm. There could be a " consulting " gig opening in Pittsburgh. I'll let 'em off cheaply, say $150,000 ?

Hi All-
One wonders if the police officer who told the bar manager about a "guy with a rifle" would have been better off saying there were "conflicting requests for assistance" or something like that. The first explanation, while somewhat truthful, has the potential to really spook the hoplophobic horses...and the officer should know that.

Too cheap. The liberal government of Pittsburgh would pay much more than that for consulting work on pigeons, especially if they get a big kick-back for themselves.

Well, isn't it obvious that we now need to ban assault air rifles?
Poor pigeons. Poor endangered pigeons...
