I am a pigeon. As a member of this otherized and belittled minority community, I have watched with particular concern while the current racial discord and societal conflict consumes us. It is making us disagreeable and turning neighbors against each other. It is causing dispute and friction in otherwise harmonious relationships.

And worst of all, it has led to numerous statues of Confederate generals and war veterans being torn down.

This must stop immediately. Statues are an incredibly vital part of the pigeon community. Tearing them down is hateful and wrong, and anyone who advocates them is either ignorant or purposely trying to conduct a bigoted, hurtful campaign against me and the larger pigeon community.

If you are one of these ignorant people, or have stood idly by out of ignorance, or even if you think it’s not a big deal, let me educate you.
