Destroy their nests ha ha

@@harriethare2200 I'll destroy your nest

Best look online m8, I built that one.

*bye If you can't even spell you shouldn't be allowed near traps, you fucking human.

@@tabithathecat Thanks

Misanthropy really is valid....

@@tabithathecat Really....So is my dislike of cats that kill millions of small mammals and song birds every year...

@@korywid9542 So is my repulsion for the most invasive, damaging species on Earth that kill millions of all kinds of animals for no good reason every year....

Thank you.

charlesrs the trigger can be set very light so smaller birds would trigger it.

Rip its head off👍

Indeed

The small bird population is doing fantastic now. Magpies are a pain in the arse. The trap does not hurt the bird so how can that be cruel ? Every part of your comment is utter bullshit. Now, fuck off.

HalfQ Think I'll just quickly respond before I fuck off anywhere... Wow. That's quite an aggressive response. Not keen on people questioning your beliefs or just having a bad day? If we're talking about facts (as in, no bullshit), cruelty doesn't just mean something physical, so it can be, and is cruel. Imagine putting a dog in a space barely big enough for it to stretch out then using that dog to catch other inquisitive dogs that may be responding to some kind of alarm call, then kill those dogs in front of the first bait dog, then repeat. (perhaps you don't follow this exact sequence but many of these traps are used for that purpose) - imagine the fear and torment inflicted on that dog throughout its life in those confines. Magpies are very intelligent creatures, some studies say as intelligent as chimpanzees, but regardless they would experience the same fear and helplessness as a dog, or a pig or a bear or most animals capable of suffering. The other thing "Magpies are a pain in the arse" - is this something you got out of a scientific journal you contribute to with all the information about your 'small bird' population in your back garden? If you replace the word magpies, with humans you'd be onto something truthful. Just do some research if you want to really know about it - the small bird population decrease in the UK is down to farming methods and pesticides. You could of course stay completely ignorant and carry on catching and killing a few random magpies, it might make you feel a bit manly and clever for a few seconds as you murmur "bingo" to yourself with delight but don't kid yourself into thinking you're actually doing anyone a favour. Wonder how long you'll be able to leave this comment up before getting so upset that you delete it!?

Tyler Marks they are perfectly egal within the eyes of the law, so stop spreading bullshit.

Does being legal mean it's morally right? Slavery was legal one time, so was giving gin to babies. Mass surveillance is also legal.

Tyler Marks hahaha compare trapping birds to slavery why dont you.... that seems a totally reasonable analogy. not. . . you realise just by using the internet to talk to me you are destroying (in far more horrific ways) ten of thousands of birds yes? is that morally right? no probably not. Are you still going to use the internet? yes, probably, you will also use your car, you will also use electricity, you will buy your meat and veg from a grocery store, the meat raised in horrific conditions, the veg grown in an area of forest that has been felled and turned into agricultural land, pesticides sprayed ( bees dying by the thousand) herbicides sprayed (natural flora destroyed) pests controlled (rabbits shot, pigeons SHOT, foxes SHOT) all so you can have a fuckin carrot and you dare level the topic of morals.... amatuerish. embrace human nature, you are, after all human.

No, IDIOCY should be banned. But you wouldn't vote for that, as it's against your own interest.

Exactly.
