I remember my friend’s stepdad would do the same thing, ex army guy, he’d pump it 4 times because (as he put it) it knocks the air out of the bird and it would fall to the ground. Then we would watch as the neighborhood cats came to kill the disabled birds.

Good try, but not even close

[@gch1765]

he attracts the birds with his bird feed. these birds are wild. they come to where there is safety and food. she wasn't trying to hit a bird. she was intentionally missing them. her target was to scare them away so that the birds do not feel safe and will not return. she was deciding in the kitchen all morning to figure out how she should handle it. she didn't go "talk to him" she handled it.

This is a satire right? The bird loving neighbor gets a bird murdering one. So if I were the bird loving neighbor I'd be justified in shooting the golden retriever? This is why neighbors become enemies, and why every house relocation has been caused by idiot neighbors, who start something, then expect you to yield their abuse; usually because you moved in after they did.

[@Jjb-gk4ce]

kenp3L has it occurred to you that she wasn't aiming? Since the number of people who can actually hit a flying pigeon with a bb gun is equivalent to the number of people in America with Ebola, it would be ridiculous to assume she was actually trying to aim at one, let alone hit one. She was making a point, and scaring the pigeons away, like zookeepers do.

[@Girlygirlemc]

I never got this scene... is that supposed to be a cap gun and she's just pretending to shoot them in order to piss off the neighbor, or is it supposed to be a real gun that the props dept seriously screwed up because there's no recoil or sound?

BB gun- it's very hard to hit flying birds with a BB gun. They are neither particularly fast nor possessing of stopping power. That said, it may simply be implied that she's hitting them with the gun. There are various reasons why it would be dictatorially bad for them to actually show her downing birds. You don't, for instance, want the audience to connect with a visibly wounded bird.

[@drippinwet774]

on the contrary, this applies to Action-Response Definition principles. disregarding a hit/miss; she did not resort to verbal dispute. verbal disputes only resolve as much as both parties are arguing on unbiased, rationale ground. equal more or less values. but they are far from equal. instead, action is the best approach. this neighbor used appeal to verbal threat; he disregarded the mental prowess and lack of moral sense animals have. clearly, he is foolishly offending consciously where her party is in accident, justification of crime (threatning) does not eliminate the crime taking place/no excuse. she had every right to argue through action which is the only realistic approach structure when dealing with irrational people.
