Angry

pigeons and humans.......


hi
if you got a pigeon eradication agency near you......riot against it
pigeons and humans have co existed with each other for thousands of years
pigeons are an important part of the eco system and cause no harm to humans in any way possible............
i heard about this pest control agency in my neighbourhood which was responsible for poisioning of several feral pigeons in the area.......
some pigeon lovers have started a revolt and are planning to burn that place down........so lets see wat happens.......will be updating on this one......

if at all rioting against them is successful in your town pls support it

Well.........IMO........THAT isn't the answer..........and "rioting" is a pretty strong word..........especially if there's violence involved. That doesn't solve anything........would probably just make things worse.

* I am so sorry to hear this. HOWEVER . . .

** Riots, killings, burning of building, etc., just to make a point??
Those pigeon 'lovers' best think about the consequences of their thoughts before they put them into action.

*** Heaven forbid, that does take place, I don't want to hear about it.
And I certainly wouldn't support it.

Poisoning pigeons is patently illegal. Get some hard evidence and take em to the police. Problem solved.
If not send your pix and other evidence to CNN.

I support petitions, and maybe even those protests and stuff..but rioting sounds a little harsh. Most of that stuff doesn't seem neccesarry
If I were them, I'd much rather have a bunch of pigeon lovers come in and tell me the truth instead of burning the place to the ground.

Maybe you could just hold up little signs saying things like "Stop poisoning the pigeons!" or things like that. I'm sure that would go much smoother, even though I don't think it matters what you do...I think they are pretty stuck to their ways with the poisoning.

Isn't it sad when even the bird of peace can't be left in peace??

So well said Mary

Santhosh,

Isn't there some other means of protest in India that would be effective without resorting to such extreme measures as burning the place down. IMHO - violence breeds violence. I don't expect that the same methods of protest that we use in the US would work in India (maybe they would - but I don't know the culture or laws there)... but please do try to find a non-violent means of protesting and bring some positive attention to these beautiful birds.

India's sort of the 'home' of peaceful resistance, isn't it?

I understand the strong feelings toward those who would exterminate our innocent pidgies - but you should try and keep to the higher ground - makes them look that much worse
