What he did was wrong, a bit because of the animal and a lot because of the spectators. It did not suffer, it was quick. It does however feel a bit like cognitive dissonance to strongly disapprove of his actions, while we systematically without any good reason eat animals and have them in small confined areas for optimal meat production per sqm. Vegans and vegetarians however, they can judge him all they want ๐ I am not one of them
Let's think about it cold. Kill seagull -> no witnesses, and the next seagull might do the same. I mean, let's get on his level of apeshit crazy, and let's assume seagulls actually understand stuff like humans, morals, and above all, human morals, and on top of that, they even care about those and want to comply. You didn't give it a lesson, because it died before it could learn from it, or before it could let the other seagulls know it's not cool to steal chips.
Hell, even when I'm trying to get on his level, it's still primitively dumb.
It's not about morals that the seagulls can understand. It is not about teaching something. He acted like a moron and completely disproportionately. However it's not that much unethical than killing for meat, when we don't need to eat meat.
Yeah, the guy should have eaten the seagull, not just killed it.
