So you're saying he should had been more effective in killing the seagull in front of the kids

if it had zero consequences

And yet, here there were consequences.

It's just a specific breeding programme and he was culling the failures. #evolution \s

I don't see where it says he abused the bird before killing it.

Pretty sure it dying instantly in a quick whack is the opposite of being abused

Like no he shouldn't have done that but you're going a little overboard
