Have other ABers heard of this?

I thought I knew pretty much everything about cruelty to animals, but this is a new one on me ....

Apparently it has been going on for years. Has anyone else heard of it?

[New2Quizzes]

It's appalling, of course ... but, for the record, turkeys can fly.

[mrs.chappie]

Not very far though, New2Quizzes. And according to that report, the few that survive are trampled to death. Like you say, it's appalling.

Apart from the cruelty to animals, they're teaching their children a bad lesson. If you're cruel to animals why not be cruel to people too?

I'm just surprised they aren't taking pot-shots at them as they fall......

[mccfluff]

i'm not looking i'll probably only end up crying!

[craft1948]

Well at least there hasn't been a 'gobbling' joke.....yet.

There are credible reports that the CIA have dropped live people from helicopters. This was said to discourage drug cartels in South America.

I've got a weird sense of humour, but animal cruelty is one of the few things that I struggle to find humour in ... but you're right, craft, I expect there are folk that do.

OMG-that's sick. Figures it would be in one of the 'red-neck' states.
