  City folks think the whole world is a petting zoo. I’ve seen a grown man, built like a bouncer, running in panic trying to escape a tiny banty rooster. This particular rooster was known to have killed two snakes and a hawk and nothing on that farm fucked with this little two pound sack of feathers more than once.

    I think the main issue in that circumstance is you don’t have a lot of options as a human, at least not without tools. You’d have absolutely no trouble just killing the chicken, but there isn’t much option for a middle ground where both sides leave unscathed.

    lol “city folks” isn’t a thing anymore dude, everyone is city folks nowadays. Living in the suburbs doesn’t make you a worldly farmer.

      City folks are definitely a thing, and suburban folks ain’t much different. The US is big and has a lot of rural communities. Even the most populated states (California, Texas, New York) all have large areas of agriculture or otherwise sparse population
