Latest in a catalogue of royal cruelty


No wonder the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is such a disaster that we have to strongly advise members never to let them get their hands on a pigeon.

"Edward outraged animal rights campaigners in December 2005 when he battered to death an injured pigeon which had been shot during a pheasant shoot at Sandringham."

"It is not the first time the Royal Family has been accused of animal cruelty. Last year Prince Philip was part of a shoot in which a fox was clubbed to death with a flagpole, and Prince Harry was questioned by police over the illegal shooting of two hen harriers, Britain’s rarest birds of prey."

"Eight years ago the Queen was also accused of cruelty after she was photographed wringing the neck of a pheasant at Sandringham."

These quotes from the link you provided make it painfully clear that the royal
family is a Royal Mess

The royal family members have so much...all these poor creatures had was their lives and they had to take that from them and viciously at that.

Rspca


And does the RSPCA sound concerned or determined to act? I think not!

Well, for both the RSPCA and the Royal family, looks like a charade of the
"EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES"......
