Let’s say your family is resting on the beach and some a$$hole runs them over with his truck, how would you feel?
Animals and people are not equivalent.
We have dominion over the animals.
It is good and right to protect endangered species. And to prevent animal cruelty. But not to elevate animals to some sort of sacred position, or go ballistic on a man who made a move that seems almost genetically implanted in us; kids run at flocks of birds all the time. We are hunters and etc. If there is a fine, so be it. But the man is not a moral monster.
I simply asked a question in my original post, because ‘allegedly’ was in the title and there were no details in the article, like how many birds were killed. It is not precise. In my belief hierarchy, the media is at the bottom, right there with government. I don’t believe either, hence the question. Given government consistently over steps its power, I think the question was valid. That’s because I think, unlike the people fly off the handle because of their feelings for birds.
