Are we going to ban cement, bird ownership, or both now?

Lets not be too quick to judge this poor woman....

She didn’t intentionally do this, no doubt she was very upset and not thinking clearly nor did she anticipate the dangers. Otherwise, in a crisis maybe she is very good in acting rationally and even helping others.
I sure have done some really stupid things when I was uspet..ha.

she has her bird, she will be ok and that is good.

Oh crap, this will now require the liberals to introduce legislation mandating 15’ tall, impervious fences to protect people from their ignorance. Of course, if it would impede the movement of illegals, we will just have to live without it.

She’s lucky. She coulda been eaten by a giant ant.

Per standard of suing gun store owners, look for the woman to sue the pet store she bought the bird from.

I have a problem with people using the word “cement” when they mean “concrete”; they are not interchangeable, yet people write and say it all the time.…To clarify, cement is the powder used to make concrete. The hardened surfaces on which we walk and drive are concrete, not cement. It’s really no big deal, just something that leaps out at me when I read it or hear it.

She must have been trying to do something similar when Lloyd ran off the jetway to catch his bird after it taxied away in “Dumb and Dumber.”
