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

        What about a person who works in a meat processing plant?

        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.
