Man?

The comments from this lunatic, combined with what he was actually up in court for ... leaves me with only one viable course of action ... a large fine, a good kicking, and deportation!!!

Talk sh1t, get hit!

Quote: A man who claimed he killed a swan because he was hungry on the second day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan has been jailed for two months.

Say what? Has this guy heard of Kentucky Fried Chicken? :D

why do nutters allways think saying ti was for religous beliefs will get em out fo anything?

and why is it the british treat the swan like americans do the bald eagle?, i think i heard from my grandad that its cus "there the queens birds" or some such crap, but i doubt someone could own a species.

[Eyebiter]

What, no pigeons close by?

Here in the US people hunt Tundra Swan, the taste is very similar to goose (fairly sweet but greasy meat). Not too bad if it's oven cooked into a hot dish.

[deadpunk]

do you serve red or white wine with swan? :rockbrow:

[Eyebiter]

White Wine serve chilled.

not sure why but that response and the ape in his sig go together eeirly well:lol:

Mute swans in the UK are considered property of the crown, ever since the inbreds in charge of the country at that time decided it would be nice to deny yet more to the common man. These days i think the scope of ownership is limited to the south of england (this is from memory so i could be wrong).

Whatever, the guy needs punishing, and virtually everything in that article - from the killing of the swan through to the reaction by the authorities - read wrong.

lmao! well if they aint gonna chase down foxhunters anymore they should let this guy go. it was only a swan. fair play to him for taking it down though, those things can break your arm!
i think he must be a bit doolally tbh

Strange. If your hungry go to the store. Seems odd to kill a swan in public. But 2 months seems extreme for just killing a swan for food.

I always wanted to try a swan. Sounds like it tastes simular to duck?

Very gristly and fatty meat I would imagine. Nah, I think I'll stick to spit-roasted Parrot thank you. :D

Go to the store???? Kentucky Fried Chicken????

You guys seem to be forgetting one little detail in those suggestions.

Uh, you need money for that. Look at the guy, he is obviously broke.

I never thought for a second while I was reading it, that man even had the means to go to the store. I took it as that was his only option for eating as he had no money or any other subsitence (sp?).

I may be dead wrong, but that is how I took it.

'I hate the Queen, I hate this country.'"

Go home. No really, don't like it that much? Go home.

I dislike my government, but they don't kill their own citizens as often as some, and they support you as best they can when you're broke. Quite frankly, I love my country and the people in it.

That's before you get onto the unlicensed killing of animals, not using a stun gun and it being a method of sheer cruelty.

The swan was clearly evil and needed to be destroyed...

[radiokill]

the picture didn't show....but that sounds really familiar....what are you referencing???

[Terran]

I wasnt referencing anything....

the image was a picture of a two headed swan... I dont know why it was taken down....hmm....The swan's treachery is deeper than I thought....

"The officers told him the swan was the property of the Queen and he replied, 'I hate the Queen, I hate this country.'"

Send him back where he came from. Point of fact send all the Mexicans who refuse to learn English here back too. Oh yes, and while we're at it, all those Muslim women who want their faces covered on their drivers license photos, send them back too. You're either where you want to be or MOVE.

Can you tell I'm in a bad mood?

That is why i said i thought the punshment was a little excessive. but i would think there would be some sort of soup kitchen to help him and others get something to eat.
