The neighbors were probably watching the situation...to see which nutcase was actually beating the birds to death.
She is perfectly proud of her actions, so she is either "losing it" mentally; or has retired there from a place where this type of trashy behavior is acceptable.
Judging from the video, I'm going with the latter.
I didn’t watch the video. I have seen enough animal abuse to last me forever....What I don’t understand is why people seem to think it is fine to bat a bird. There are ways to deal with unwanted or bothersome animals/birds. I would be worried to live where birds were being killed by a kook. I would wonder if my kids were safe or if one day I was making too much noise & got the bat next.
