    Your first sentence makes no sense to me. I agree with the rest of it.

    I don't think this type of vandalism is anything but mindless. One has to think of the story of "A Kestral for a Knave" to say that this is a story of love for another creature in depressing conditions & how non animal lovers, i.e. Casper's brother kills the bird, due to him not being able to escape his meaningless existence & can't see the vision of his also hapless younger sibling. For me dogs are my thing, but I love the joy that birds, cats & all other living creatures bring to me. If you really think it is animal rights activists, then OK.

    At least it's not Paramore. Although I do quite like one of their tracks as a guilty pleasure.

    The first sentence if you dont the story of Kes it was about a young lad keeping and trying to train a kestrel which is a wild animal/bird which the lefties soon get their teeth into

    So you’re saying animal rights/ animal lovers etc are all ‘ lefties’. Straight out of the Boris Johnson/ Tory book of *****
