well hold on, a Canada goose can get up to 14 lb easily, the brown pelican tops out at 6.9 lb, and doesn't have a cobra neck so your only options aren't attack the head & neck or do nothing.
like if there's a group of kids around, I'd rather they go home with a story about how I got beaten up by a goose then the trauma of the memory of a pudgy middle-aged man smashing a goose's head in front of them. I remember when I was like five and Animal Control had to come to my school and shoot a raccoon because they thought it had rabies, I got pretty emotional about that. heck, here I am talking about it more than 30 years later.
plus if anybody records it, no matter how much anybody acknowledges they don't want to be bitten by a goose, I'm still going to be branded a heartless goose killer and probably doxxed. there's a lot at play here
oh look, Johnny No-Posts has an opinion on somebody's question in the No Stupid Questions community. I don't go to the Pinochet fan groups and tell you that you can't make helicopter memes, learn some basic internet etiquette.
and who the hell am I supposed to trust about Catholic rules if not a freaking archbishop?
In the US, the USCCB (that is, the bishop's conference for the United States) has ruled that Catholics should abstain from meat every Friday outside of Lent but may substitute that for some other suitable form of penance. What that penance is isn't exactly delineated. here's an archdiocese saying the same thing . I'm not catholic, so if you want to argue what Catholics are and are not allowed to do, please take it up with the archbishops and archdiocese.
capybara get eaten in the wild all the time. average lifespan of a wild one is 4 years, and the primary cause of death is predation. they can live 10 years in captivity
their main form of defense is reproducing about as quickly as rabbits. they are sometimes competition for grazing land, but South Americans usually farm them if they're a pest, rather than exterminating them, as they are very good meat animals. the Catholic Church classifies them as fish, so the more Catholic of community is, the more of them they're eating (Catholics aren't allowed to eat meat on friday, and somebody along the way decided fish weren't meat. it wasn't unusual to write the Vatican with a description vague enough to get something declared a fish; both the capybara and beaver were classified as fish because the people submitting the request just emphasized the amount of their lives they spend in the water), and there's a medicinal grease produced from their skin that they use like petroleum jelly.
did you know that one of the reasons their bones are hollow is because they assist the lungs with intaking oxygen to provide all the oxygen needed for flight? it's not just weight saving
every single time they talk about anti-genocide protesters, at the moment, they're calling all of us "pro Palestinian". just like how the Nazis called anybody who defended non-Aryans "jew lovers", the same reason that slavers called abolitionists "n*gger lovers". as if the only reason you could possibly feel empathy for that particular group of people is because.... well I'm not sure exactly what they're implying.
we are not "pro palestinian". if the Palestinians were committing a similar genocide against Jewish folk, we would be just as upset in the other direction.
I was talking about what they're calling me, dipshit. and if you're not an anti-genocide protester, then thanks for waving your red flag this early in the conversation
