YES Colin, (“Scum should have been thrown in the lake”, May 23). We are livid too.
Selfish people afraid to complain, take photos or ring the police. How anyone could watch such cruelty (the destruction of a swan’s nest at Moses Gate) and do nothing is appalling.
We see it so often. “Don’t tell me or show me this horror — it’s distressing ‘cos I’m an animal lover.”
I’m sick of hearing it. We caught fishermen throwing bricks at a heron and the swans last year. I asked for help from a couple passing by but they lowered their head and walked by.
Caring for animals is done by small committed groups whilst the population watches X Factor.
Ruffle some more feathers, Colin.
