"It started here with the press making fun of it, the police didn't do anything about it, and now it's grown into this, so when is it going to stop, and who's going to do something about it?" Hillman said Thursday.

Hummmm

sick

Isn’t that AnimalCruelty ?

It was cowboy hats first.

......someone alert the ASPCA!!!!

Call PETA!

Animal cruelty.

Animal/livestock abuse! Did they consent to this?

These people are sick.

Really? Animal cruelty? I have seen people’s pets dressed up in outfits worse. I think it’s funny. I think people who think it’s abuse just looks for anything to bird poop on Trump.

🤨

What the f is wrong with those people?

What a poorly designed signal equating pigons to Trump supporter s (really was this the intended massage?). Also a disgusting cruelty to animals (now this massage sits all too well with the lack of decency and disregard for others some of the promoters seem to enjoy too much).

The same morons complaining, are the same ones that hit them with their cars, shoo them at any given chance, support pigeon birth control, put up spikes on their awnings, use fake owls, use pesticides, etc. Yeah, S.U. This was funny. Of course, Trump had nothing to do with this.

Isn’t this ILLEGAL? It should be 🤨

And Trump doesn’t want Americans to see this idiot

Animal abuse.

Horrible to GLUE hats on pigeons. Trumpets have no respect for life.

Pigs

Cruel.

What in the actual fuck

How apropos!! With pigeons being at the very bottom of the totem pole in the bird world. Similar to how Reality TV Celebrities and Instagram Celebrities are the lowest forms of 'celebrity'. LookAtAllTheirLoveForRussia CommunismOverDemocraticSocialism WhoKnew

DAMN SHAME.

Further demonstrating those who wear MAGA hats have tiny bird brains. Sad. MAGAflyingRATS

boycottmsnbc

This is sick

Sounds like the ASPCA needs to chime in on that one. VOTE BLUE and SAVE AMERICA!

Animal cruelty, PETA, Humane Society, Animal Rights! do something please!

Same on them. There's a federal law u can't abuse animals, this is abuse. Shame on them.

Trump stalks the democrats debate everywhere the Dems go Trump follows. Just like the awkward moment Trump followed Hillary on stage at a debate.

Animal cruelty?

Where's the ASPCA?

Dear Lord please tell me this isn't true. That's taking MAGAts to a whole new level. Lol

Glued to their heads? Damn.

Sent the people who glued those hat 🎩 on pigeons need to be in jail p

That’s cruel.

Pretty symbolic of Trump Trolls. They swarm and leave their poop anywhere.

Cruel bastards!

That’s just cruel. 😞

GOP IS BONKERS. VoteBlueNoMatterWho

Who fucking does this to animals?!?!?! this is bullshit!

Just another example of how sick Trumpers are

Haha hilarious! And to all the “aNiMaL aBuSe” folks... HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAJAH🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Animal abuse is right on brand for the magats.

These Trump cult followers are S.I.C.K. This is animal cruelty and they should be punished.🤬

Disgraceful.. that’s animal abuse.. they should be arrested..

OMG!

Add this to the list of things this country let’s them get away with!!

Cruelty to animals....typical of those kind of slum trump people.

How disgusting

Where are the animal rights groups protesting this gross abuse of these pigeons? 'Glued to their heads' damn the world is full of savages.

Pigeons-apart of this evil INVISIBLE TECHNOLOGY that to dangerous for any authority to have rights too. Their is no where to run: Because it is military police in its self-to try to fool the people in using illegal High Tech against the consistution for bring in militarypolicein

Glued WTF

Horrifying, yet another new low.

That’s really sad. Why are people so nuts?!

Plain stupid!!

How disgusting. That is so cruel.

Mental illness is a serious issue in America

Let's start abusing animals now to bump up the trump base!! I think we should glue that hat on the 'king's' comb over so when he tries to take it off it pulls his UGLY FAKE hair off that huge bald spot on his head😄👍👍

Is this from the Onion? It’s not!!! This is completely insane!!!

Where is PETA when they are really needed! vs harassing celebrities.

Magets are sickening

Libtardation at its best. Viva la lefty madness. Viva la butthurt, la buttbleeding. Viva la stupidity. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Perfectly on brand for gop. Cruel and stupid.

Smartest thing I've seen wearing a MAGA hat.

This can’t be, this is not true. Tell me this did not really happen! Make it all go away, please God!!!!!!

I hope they shit all over the Trump hotel sign.

Where’s PETA?

Expanding his base...

Perfect. Pigeons crap all over the place just like the GOP. Well chosen mascot.

The insanity is contagious

So awesome. The haters will be out in full body armour. TrumpLandslide2020

Animal cruelty

Coincidentally, Republican voters have brains the size of pigeons'

So crewel

Whhhaaattt?

Cruelty

It’s a coincidence the acronym spells Putin, huh?

Isn't this animal cruelty?!

DISGUSTING.

When the PETA group comes for the MAGA group its gonna be something.

It makes sense. Republicans shi* everywhere and never listen to the voice of reason.

Everything they do feels a little grimy.

They should have to get sombreros glued to their heads that say 'I am a hater' and be forced to wear t-shirts that say 'I am cruel to animals.' for 24 hours while the stand downtown by a basket of rotten eggs.

Animal cruelty..Have they no ethical bounds?

Forget peta, this is felony animal cruelty and the state of Nevada needs to press charges against those responsible.NvDOW

I feel soryfor those birds.

Lmao. You lefty goobers. You do realize it was leftist that did this, right? Please do continue, Im enjoying these comments.

Animal abuse - those responsible should be arrested. Morons!

Unbelievable!

Now we have finally found the stable geniuses in the MAGA crowd!

Whatever MAGA group did that to those pigeons needs to be charged with animal cruelty.

There is no bottom for sociopaths.

Animal cruelty! What did the pigeons do to these people? Glueing hats and all? Cruel ! Plan cruel

WTF Have you no respect for nature

Animal rights please.

🤮🤮🤮

My daughter and I laughed so hard 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Are you F’^€ing kidding me?

Isn't that animal abuse?!

Disgraceful!

Flying rats sounds right.

why harm this bird's like this same right to enjoy the planet as everyone else.

Con men refer to their victims as 'marks,' or 'pigeons.' Perfect mascot for Trump supporters.

That’s a federal crime

WTF is wrong with People! I have just about lost faith in humanity! Trump has brought out the most hateful people in America! This is not who we are. It just makes me sick!

Fkg idiot MAGATS. VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare

That is animal cruelty! How would those idiots like to have dildos glued to their damn foreheads?

One flew over the coocoo's nest (WH)...

Trump's base. Pigeons!

Not only Dictator followers now Animals have to suffer for your cult aswell. Like my ancestors right?... Hail the Fuehrer.

Have they no morals? No respect for our animal friends.

ElkeBabiuk This makes me feel sad. Those poor birds. Maybe trump really does represent America.

Republicans would hand the USA to Putin in a platter if he had a plan to keep America white and the rich in Washington.

...but enough about his supporters...

1. Find the fool(s) responsible for this cruel act. 2. Shave their heads. 3. Glue DNC baseball caps to thejr heads. SufferTheFools

DonVonCrump1

Seriously.

Where in the heck is PETA? Isn't there some animal abuse going on?

That’ll do it

Enuf said...

Cue up the Impeachment over the pigeon hats. I’m guessing Russia Russia Russia part 2 is ready to be cued up after the Red Wedding last night

Poor birds

F**ked up ...

Better than abortions I suppose

Nazi pigeons

Pigeons already have a bad rep. GOP had to do this to them?

Where’s my cats when I need them.

That’s cruelty to animals !!!

This show GOP ignorance & lack of care for any life form. If you're a GOP and support this kind of hate & abuse shame on you. If your a GOP and you disapprove of this you need to speak up to your party and condemn them for this. For the love of humanity and God grow the hell up!!

Somebody glue one on his head & lets see

Please please let this nightmare end!!!

asteroid. now.

Pigeons are rats with wings. What exactly is their point

That cruel

Ain’t this a felony? All I’m sayin 🤷🏼‍♂️

Next will be Human beings after the 2020 elections.

Animal cruelty realDonaldTrump and his followers.

Isn’t it animal cruelty? peta rickygervais

Hi cruel to the poor birds😥

Arrest parscale

What the fuck is wrong with trump supporters I have no words to describe how fucked up this is, this right here is why we need to VoteBlueToSaveAmerica if they will abuse helpless animals to 'own libs' there is no bottom to their cruelty

If they’re treated like human Trump supporters, they may suffer abuse by wacko leftists, not the people who put the hats on..

OMG, it’s not animal cruelty you idiots.. 🤣🤣🤣 Those pigeons are just fine. Bet you watch videos of cats and dogs in funny hats and costumes. Yet this is animal abuse? 🤣 You can tell those pigeons are cared for. It doesn’t effect them one bit.

That should be penalized. Animal cruelty...

Find who did it and charge with animal abuse.

Despicable

No need to do that to the poor birds. There are already thousands of pigeons like that at every Trump rally.

Bird abuse. 🤭😭

Animal cruelty. Whomever did that should be jailed.

I hope someone is working on shutting down this organization if they are harming animals.

Yes and they are looking for the idiots to arrest them. LOL

You have to be really fucked up to torture animals to make a political statement

People have been arrested for such acts of animal cruelty. Whoever did this should be also.

This is abuse of pidgeons!

I thought I read an onion article.

and they should be locked up for animal cruelty. really glued hats on the birds

Dirty birds...just like the GOP.

Lol

Pigeons 💩 on everything too. Appropriate they would have DJT hats on.

How cruel yet how typical of Trump people.

What a horror! How sick and demented are the people who carried out this act of gluing Trumper hats on pigeon.

😂What is going on in their puny little heads?😂

Is this an article from the onion that they ran with?

Is this an Onion article? This has to be an Onion article!

This is UNADULTERATED ANIMAL CRUELTY‼️ ASPCA USDA USDA_NRCS Duly CHARGE the Idiot PERPS‼️ HSIGlobal MoveTheWorldUS MoveTheWorld ciwf

wtf?! the onion? what the F ? We are living in a Paddy Chayefsky script!

Sick bastards

No one has explained to non cult voters when was America “Great”. I don’t see it in neither U.S. or World history.

Well. It’s only fitting since pigeons are disease ridden rats with wings.

Cruel

Hey people Stop mentioning PETA, they have a completely different agenda, it’s The SPCA you want involved.

What the actual f*ck? Everything these freaks do runs contrary to everything I am as a good person.

Lol

Glued? Where is PETA? Isn't this animal abuse?

Is it just me, or does that pigeon look embarrassed?

This is genuinely psychotic.

Who would protest a caucus? This is bizarre. I smell the work of Soros to try to taint MAGA.

Wow. A new low.

That is seriously disturbing

This is awful not to mention inhumane. How are all these poor birds suppose to get all the glue off their feathers and not get sick from it ? I hope who ever did this is caught and punished accordingly.

*o*

The small minded lack of compassion of this that sums up many supporters of Trump. Their abuse of simple power over a bird not afraid enough of humans because despite education there remains a spectrum of our species as unimaginative as them.

Wtf

Definition of an idea backfiring

It doesn’t make sense. All it tells me is they are calling trump a pigeon

Looks like a Shriner.

Cruel & stupid. Just like everything else they do.

F***ing unbelievable

This is abusive

Awful!

That's about as bad as Alison Morris's mouth....

Pigeon or Trumper?

WTAF?

This is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen.

Sickening. Can make enough humans wear the hats so now they have to glue them onto birds?

Trump ppl will call u lazy bc u dont spend ur free time gluing shit to pigeons

Then they all died.

Alright, can we just make America intelligent again?

Glued? AYFK?

Let's harm animals to own the libs.

Walking & 💩 all over the chess board & swearing they won! Can't show them away as long as you're feeding them

Pigeons and Trump supporters have a lot in common. Tiny brains and they shit all over the place. (But I actually like pigeons)

Exactly the type of childish, immature bs we expect from Trumpers. MAGA = Revenge of the Nerds.
