I DON’T think Clr Colin Stout is right to kill pigeons (Examiner April 12). I don’t think it’s right because it’s cruel to animals. Dogs mess in parks, would he gas them?

It’s people who are to blame – if they didn’t feed them they wouldn’t hang around.

Do you know you would kill the babies too because they would have no food or water to support them.
