  • That rooster did his duty and deserves the poultry medal of honour.

    I’ve read through the other comments here. Free roaming pitbulls are to my mind unacceptable. As others have already said, shooting them wouldn’t be unreasonable, but you have a dilemma with that, which is understandable even if I’m not sure I agree.

    I’m unclear on the exact timelines of all these things happening, but if they were looking for food wouldn’t they have eaten the Rooster? Possibly you interrupted them, or they were just dealing with the rooster aggression? It’s hard to understand how the hens were not victims after the rooster was killed, so I’m wondering how and why.

    If you believe they are looking for food, would you consider leaving an easier meal for them until a time that you feel like you have adequately reinforced the enclosure? That might attract other unwanted guests though depending where you are.

    You could also possibly trap them (in a pen for example) and call the authorities to correctly deal with it if you can’t find an owner for them.

    An electric fence is probably the only thing short of actually harming them that is going to keep them away.

    Hopefully they don’t come across small children before some action is taken.















  • Do you believe that age verification online is to protect children? Likewise for mandatory backdoors to secured data and encryption bans?

    Digital id can be abused and controlled in ways a physical id cannot. There are some similarities to the idea of having a ‘cashless society’ but it also has unique problems.

    Because a digital id is likely to become much more convenient, it’s not a stretch that it becomes mandatory to verify for services that previously had no need to. You have another reply talking about museums and buses, which you think is ridiculous, but when it becomes so simple to do these things can creep in.

    We don’t know the implementation being planned, so it is hard to say for sure - but I don’t want it and believe it should be resisted as strongly as possible.
