Seen wonderful karma at work today

[Redgreenfroggy]

In London at the moment. Went to the Tower of London today, sat outside and as usual loads of pigeons.

2 lots of parents sat there laughing and filming their little darlings chase and kick out at the pigeons. One of the boys made contact with one. Just as I was about to open my month to have a go at the parents another pigeon flew over the dad’s head and did the most perfectly aimed shit that landed right on his bald head.

dad then stands up shouting dirty bastards and then realised quite a few people were laughing including myself and my lot. I was creased up. He and his family very quickly leave. The most funny thing was it was down to his own that the pigeons were flying all over in panic

Beautful Karma. Can anyone beat this with their own experience of Karma at work

I've got a friend who feeds pigeons. I'm sending her this, thanks for sharing

I hate people who let their kids torment pigeons. May they all get soundly shat on! 🤣

I am in London today and have seen this so many times

Why do people let their kids do this?

Brilliant. Pigeons are much maligned imho. Their role aa carrier pigeons in the war saved many lives. When I feed the waterfowl at the local park I always make sure the pigeons get a share 😄

No idea why some parent let their kids do that. Some people just think animals are there for their entertainment. Saw a women try to pet the pelicans in st James park (she very soon had second thought)

also seen a lot of people in the Lake District try to chase ducks, pick up cygnets (also regretted this very quickly). Saw a group feeding horses with apples and mints, right next to them was a sign on a fence saying please don’t feed these horses, they are on a special diet. I did intervene, and after being told to fuck off I told them if they did not stop i would take a picture of them and send it to the owner so he could sue them when his/her horses died of colic.

Also loads of dogs off leads around livestock despite signs saying keep dogs on leads. Not to mention the time my husband saw a farmer going ballistic at some parents for letting their kids chase sheep in a field.

There was also a curlew nest in a friend next to the caravan park we were staying and the owner had cameras put up and warning signs about anyone trying to steal the curlew eggs would be prosecuted. The year before they were taken

Also the osprey nest on ethswaite water having to be monitored 24/7 due to people trying to steal the eggs.

You’ll get loads of people posting that letting children chase pigeons is harmless fun but I agree with you op.

People just think animals are toys. I lost my absolute shit on a couple last summer because I caught them in our (double fenced and heavily signposted) field trying to put their toddler up on my horse to take a photo. You couldn't make it up. Just lucky they chose the quiet one, not the nervous, kicky one that all the fecking sign posts are about.

And they would all be wrong.
Its absolutely awful and I hate seeing it.
People bleat "oh they don't hurt them" but its frightening for the birds anyway.
My DC knew never to do it

I don't get it either.

It's cruel, so stressful for the animals.

I don’t much like the noisy awkward flappy bastards but I would never allow my children to chase them.

Wait ... there are pelicans in St James's Park?? Well, I'm going to have to go and visit them now, I love this!

Yes they are beautiful.

I used to get off a stop earlier to walk through the park on my way to work.

My cousin left his lovely wife and 2 kids when he progressed up the ladder in his job and took up with someone at the same level in the company. This cousin had had to study for quite a while to get his degree/post graduate qualifications and was supported by said wife who worked as a cleaner while he was studying. He moved to another part of the country and barely saw his children or supported them. Him and second wife founded an IT company and were very well off (big house/fancy cars and so on). However,in order to pay less maintenance,he was shown to just be employed by the company and paid far less than he was actually getting. Forward a few more years and the second wife divorced him and took everything as everything was under her name!

Karma. Nobody in my family felt remotely sorry for him,not even his mother.

I was once in a hot tub with a bunch of people including the most insufferable obnoxious yank. We weren't supposed to have glass near the pool for obvious reasons but he had one and after wittering absolute gobshitery including his stupid opinion on women he got out knocked his glass over and promptly fell onto the shards. Never seen karma across so quickly or so satisfyingly.

Bloody hell that terrible. Can’t believe some people!

I saw a foreign tourist pick up & cuddle a cygnet, while her DP took a pic.
Mum swan then attacked her. DP then tried to attack Mum.
Bystanders were yelling "put it down", a couple of young lads pulled DP away & he slipped and fell on a pile of shit. It's amazing how a small pile swan shit can spread.
Oh, how we laughed.

🤣

Poor cygnets and swans

I've got a couple actually. About 20 years ago, I was walking down the road from my house to the bus stop about 10 minutes walk away. It was frosty with icy roads. A bunch of blokes in a car came whizzing past, and one shouted 'hello you fat cunt why don't you DIE!' out of the window at me.

10 seconds later the car swivelled round on an ice patch - so it's facing back up the hill, and then went rolling backwards down the hill to the traffic island and smashed straight into a tractor. Nobody was hurt, but the car was wrecked. I carried on walking to the bus stop, just staring at them and smiling. 😃

Another one was a couple of weeks ago. We went to the beach and there was two little boys about 8 and 10 years old - so old enough to know better - throwing rocks at the seagulls.

I actually had to move away because I was so pissed off by it. I told them to stop, but they wouldn't. About half an hour later they were pissing around on a disused jetty, and a bunch of seagulls swooped down on them both (must have been about 10 of them,) and knocked them both into the water. Funniest thing I've ever seen. It was only about three foot deep, so they didn't drown. They just scuttled to the rocks, crying. LMFAO. 😆

Brilliant 😂 I still don’t understand why people let their kids run at pigeons, poor things must be frightened to death

Years ago I worked with someone who had a hobby that was something to do with releasing grouse (maybe?) for the shoot in Northumberland where I worked. I'm vegetarian, which said person thought was "stupid" and I'm not a fan of anyone who enjoys shooting animals for fun. One weekend he was on the shoot, another shooter shot a pheasant and it fell out of the sky smack bang into colleagues face and broke his nose. Even he could see the irony and told me as he "thought I'd enjoy the story" - I did enjoy it very much, karma!

I have always been kind to pigeons but got shat on anyway.

Because people.

People think they are entitled to do exactly what they like these days when they like. It's quite often shown on here.

No respect for each other anymore.

I let rip at a child and parent the other day for this. Cruel cunts.

My friend is a warden at a local nature reserve and is on the verge of leaving due to the behaviour of the public. Bringing dogs on site and letting them run amok in areas with ground nesting birds, kids terrorising the wildlife and just general entitled and abusive twattery. I gave a bollocking to some kid at a national trust place the other day who was relentlessly chasing an absolutely terrified goose. Mum wasn't happy but tough shit!
