4 pigeons found glued on top of wall; Hong Kong police suspect animal abuse
-
To fasten a ducks i just use the tape; I dunno if it's rated for pigeons though.
I do know how to glue gorillas, if you need advice on that?
How do you apply your gorilla glue?
-
I'd happily beat someone to death over something like this
You wanna see animal abuse?
I'll fucking show you abuse.
Are you vegan?
-
How do you apply your gorilla glue?
Very carefully.
Prep is everything, clean the gorilla thoroughly first - do not skip this step.
Apply a thin layer to both surfaces.
The trickiest part is holding the gorilla still for a full 3 minutes for the initial bond to form.
But once that's done you're golden., it should hold until full strength is achieved after 24 hours (in normal jungle conditions).

It is conceivable that the glue was put there for another purpose, and the pigeons simply landed in it. That’s just not likely in this case
Why would anyone put glue on something and not glue anything on top?
It could also be a trap. Put glue and some food on it and see pigeons get trapped to death. That's how a lot of rat traps work.

So could a gorilla take on 100 men carrying that glue?

I'm not a fan of pigeons. But someone going out of their way to do something this sadistic to a living thing is all kinds of serial-killer-predictor type fucked up.
Yeah honestly the kind of person who would do this should be killed. There is nothing good that will come from them continuing to be here with the rest of us.
-
Are you vegan?
I am, and if them not being vegan is a problem for you then put me in coach.

The point is that being that (rightfully) angry at animal abuse and not being vegan is fucking hypocritical.

Do the men have prep time?

For all we know it was a kid or someone off his meds.

How is gluing an animal to something not animal abuse? That's like suspecting a wall is solid after walking into it.
Its a buddhist thing.
They are prohibited from killing animals, so they just put glue on a piece of tin "If it's your time to go you will go".

Everyone has their limit to the ratio between tolerance and group convenience. Even vegans must also tolerate plant cruelty, for one. It's not an "on-or-off" switch.

There is no plant cruelty, plants aren't sentient and do not feel pain or suffering.

"Do you eat cheese? THEN DON'T FUCKING COMPLAIN WHEN SOMEONE GLUES A PIGEON TO A WALL" is surely the most effective way to convince people while feeling morally superior.

Let's assume plant cruelty is a thing, for the sake of argument. About 50% of cereals produced, and a 3rd of all crop land are used to feed livestock.
Yet livestock account for 17% of the world calories
The best way to reduce "plant harm" is to remove meat consumption. Bonus points for stopping animal cruelty, reducing transport of gigatons of freight, reducing deforestation & even returning land to wilderness

You are projecting your insecurities onto me. I don't feel morally superior, but have a think what saying that does to you. Suddenly there is no reason to think about the stuff discussed here, because if I only say these things to feel morally superior then obviously it can't be true and you don't have to change anything, right? You are short circuting your own critical thinking.

You definitely like telling people how they should feel and what they should discuss, I can give you that.

No its not and I'm tired of trying to explain the concept of moral equivalence to idiots who think that it is.
Its the same difference as would be hunting for food versus hunting for trophy sport. I can be perfectly fine with people hunting a deer in order to make some delicious deer sausage. But be against them hunting that same animal just to cut off its head to show off in their den.
I can be perfectly morally fine with the idea that SOME forms of lower life are acceptable harvests for my own sustenance, but be morally outraged by animals being killed for needless reasons or sadism.
Despite vegans attempts to muddy the issue, context matters.
Its the same reason I would set a trap to kill a mouse that is causing trouble in my house, eating and pooping into my rice bag. But wouldn't go out of my way to plant traps in a place where those same mice aren't bothering me.
Its the same reason I'd kill a moth that is keeping me from sleeping at night, but leave it alone if its harmlessly flying around my garage.
Context matters. So quit your faux-outrage bullshit.

This would be a lot more convincing if humans needed to eat animals, which we don't. If done for pleasure ( taste or aesthetics), it's hypocritical to then condemn other animal abuse/cruelty.
