    "Mr. Comer advised that he was responsible for shooting the geese," police said. "Mr. Comer advised that he thought the golf course had a nuisance permit and that he could shoot the geese."

    Canada geese are assholes, but so are golfers. I feel a little bad for this guy who is just trying to do his job and is caught in the middle and ends up fighting geese, and since he's the one doing the actual dirty work, he's the one who gets in trouble. he thought he was covered by a permit they didn't have – wonder where he got that idea?

    it's easy to imagine golfers screaming at him about getting goose shit on their shoes – or being chased by vicious lil honkers big-honk away from a ball that landed too close to a nest, a mental image I find delightful honk – while he just wants to take care of the green and go home, and his boss says to just go kill the geese, it's fine, they do it all the time, the golf course has a nuisance permit that allows them to just murder wildlife willy-nilly when it gets in the way, nbd

    and then JD Vance has to go run his fucking mouth and now suddenly the cops there care what happens to geese
