…Then We’ll Ban These, Too

Psychos

Fresh on the heels of the outrage above, we have this horror:

A group of yobs allegedly tortured and killed a duck with a catapult in the latest incident in a disturbing spate of attacks.
Concerned locals saw the youngsters – believed to be aged between 11 and 15 — firing off at a duck before kicking it and throwing it against a wall.

With the inevitable response (because Britishland):

Disgusted locals are now calling for a ban on the catapults after a spate of incidents targeting animals across the county.

There’s a better idea — catch the amoral little scrotes and give them a vicious public flogging in the town square (pour encourager les autres, so to speak) — but no doubt some people will have a problem with this solution because Krool & Hartless.

The unfortunate duck was unavailable for comment.

  1. Ban catapults? We beat the Poms to it … yep, they’re a prohibited weapon here in good ole Western Australia.

  2. certain towns around here banned the sale of air rifles. No Red Ryder for you, Sport. well unless you go for a little drive. we used to make sling shots out of tree limbs that came down

    1. Air rifles here are classified as a “firearm”. You need a full-on firearms licence, quoting, need and reason to own, a certified gun safe, plus a clear medical and psych test, before you can even think about using/owning one.

      2. so what do you do for fun where you’re at? do you join the women at the quilting B or sewing circle?

  4. Catapults? There are groups of young teenagers rolling siege engines around with which to torture ducks?

    1. Just a guess, but I’m interpreting that as British for “wrist rocket”, AKA “sling shot”. That is, a Y-shaped stick with rubber bands for launching peas, spitwads, or pebbles. The American love for more power has given us ones with rubber tubes instead of mere rubber bands, strong enough to hunt squirrels, or to teach generally good kids some responsibility – or to expose the young psychopaths. I don’t know if the more powerful of these devices have crossed the Atlantic,

  5. “The unfortunate duck was unavailable for comment.”

    Clearly,

    he ducked the question.
