Scotland declares war on urban seagulls

EDINBURGH (Reuters) - The Scottish government has declared war on increasingly aggressive urban seagulls.The initial battle will be joined in the southwestern town of Dumfries during next spring's breeding season when a special anti-gull "task force" will seek to destroy nests and drive out the birds.
"Seagulls are a menace to Scottish towns and cities," said Environment Minister Michael Russell. "They thrive on litter and their aggressive behaviour towards other birds, pets and even people is increasing."
He said Dumfries had a particular problem with regular reports of gulls "dive-bombing" humans.
Russell said he had even heard of a young paperboy in Dumfries "who has had to abandon his deliveries due to constant attacks from the birds."
Dumfries town councillor Jack Groom said the time for talk was over, adding that it was time for action before a human was seriously hurt by the gulls.

Good luck, but you realize that the minute you bring it under control, seagulls from south of the border will come over and take control!;)

[JALU3]

Maybe a PETA like group will attempt to stand in the way of those attempting to shoot the "rats with wings", and then in the spirit of fellowship declare themselves Seagulls, and say they are no longer human.

We should send Scotland military aid in the form of mass shipments of Alka-seltzer.

When I was stationed in Utah, some of the more sadistic troops used to do this.

I proudly state that I had nothing to do with it. I don't get my jollies with the suffering of innocent animals....but there were many in my military unit that did

Pretty disturbing actually :nope:

Ah so 2/2 wasn't the only unit capable of that.

I wonder what the hell is wrong with some of our guys, the grunts used to do some messed up stuff like that. One time I was taking a couple fire teams northwest of Al Karma where they were going to do a foot patrol, looking for arms caches.

We didn't find anything interesting, but on their way back to the truck they took notice of a fairly skinny-looking cow. It was standing in the mud path they were using to get back to the truck. When I saw them stop, I thought "Oh God what are they going to do to this poor cow:roll: "
Then the automatic riflemen shot it. And not just bang, shot it, either. Ripped it to pieces with about 50 rounds from his SAW.
They thought it was a great laugh, and got pretty pissed at me when I got on their case about it.

I couldn't do much, since they had two Sergeants with them, and I was only a Corporal, but I hit every pothole, bump and blast crater on the way back.


We had guys doing crap like that all the time, shooting dogs (not wild dogs, people's dogs, on their property) flashbanging animals and sometimes people just for the hell of it, breaking people's stuff when we searched their vehicles and homes.
Totally unacceptable and unprofessional, not to mention stupid, since pissing people off just makes them more likely to help or become insurgents.

That is the disturbing part. The laughing. Very disturbing

This is why I completely believe the case where the Marines threw that puppy off the cliff. I know GIs that would do that in a heartbeat and laugh about it.

Very disturbing to have such sadists with weapons. :nope:

[nikimcbee]

Why don't they just go to the UN and get sanctions against the seagulls? That always worked in the past. Send in the smurfs.:rotfl:

[joea]

Just turn them against the "other flying rat."
