The chicken could have easily been a pedestrian, good on the lady for stopping and I totally understand her frustrations.
Wish the other driver get her license suspended for reckless endangerment or something along those lines.
Also, why did the Chicken cross the road?
To highlight the carbrained idiot.
I once saw a pickup truck drive into the shoulder of a road to intentionally murder a mother duck and her babies that were just standing there.
I'm not questioning if what she did was right or wrong but I get it. I fucking get why she did what she did.
Oh I think it's right to stand up for those who can't (within reason, and invitation). However in this case, I'd 100% beat that ass or swallow my own teeth in trying, just to avenge nature trying to live along with the rest of us.
And a MOTHER too, with her chicks???? Ooo my godd.
That could have easily been a child in the road, idiot driver deserves to be maced, tarred and feathered
I mean i have chickens as pets and i like them very much. I treat them like other people treat their dogs or cats that they love. I would definitely be absolutely furious if someone drives over one. No real reason to what if the situation. Just because other people see them as a worthles food source doesn't mean that goes for everyone
A woman who stopped at an intersection to allow a chicken to cross the road allegedly attacked another driver with bear mace for killing the bird.

That's one hell of a URL.
That's a second degree SEO leak.
Not all heroes wear capes
This time the chicken got to the other "other side"
