My life has significantly improved.
I genuinely mean it when I say my life is better knowing this happened.
You may think the bar is pretty low, but I’m a simple woman, and quite frankly I’m happier for it.
This mysterious group calls themselves P.U.T.I.N. which stands for “Pigeons United To Interfere Now.”
The whole office was laughing after I showed them this video (see below).
This anonymous group’s members are definitely the type of friends I’d want to have in my life.
Fox News reported:
An anonymous group claimed it was behind the release of pigeons over the city of Las Vegas that are wearing MAGA hats and — in at least one case — a wig that resembles President Trump‘s hair.
The group, calling itself Pigeons United To Interfere Now, or P.U.T.I.N., called it an “aerial protest” of Wednesday night’s Democratic debate, local Fox affiliate KVVU reported.
They also released a video of birds wearing the headgear, with a voiceover of dialogue from the Alfred Hitchcock film “The Birds.”
The birds were released late Tuesday night, prior to Trump’s visit to the area.
“The release date was also coordinated to serve as a gesture of support and loyalty to President Trump,” a group member using the name Coo Hand Luke told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Members of the organization said they wish to remain anonymous because they want attention directed toward their actions, not the individuals behind them. When asked by the Review-Journal if it was meant as a prank, they said it was mainly intended as satire.
PETA will be all over this any minute now, I’m sure.
UPDATE:
I FREAKING CALLED IT – IT HASN’T EVEN BEEN 24 HOURS.
Stupid pranks like this one are serious business that can interfere with birds' ability to fly, see, and avoid predators, so it's no surprise that at least one pigeon used in a similar stunt died. Full statement here: https://t.co/gQT10AcZjc
