As my wife and I were sitting here in a truck stop in Las Vegas we witnessed one of the most terrible things I have seen in a long time. We were sitting in our vehicle just after eating a small meal when a company vehicle of another truck stop comes in by the fuel island and sees a group of pigeons and aims for them and steps on the gas, not the worst part after the driver stepped on the fuel he laughed and the one bird was killed and another animal was injured its leg was broken. He then came back out about twenty minutes later and floored the fuel again. The parking is not only for parking but is a thoroughfare for the pedestrians. If any persons had been walking in this area the driver would not have been able to stop. These actions by this person are not only cruel but dangerous to the persons who would be or could be walking in this area. This person not only is dangerous and cruel but he has does not posses any common sense. The area also has many drivers walking their dogs to the small bit of area that the parking lot holds for animals to relieve themselves.
The industry of transportation has enough of a bad name, they do not need people outside the system to help their bad name along. I watched a man walk through who drives his own personal camper, looked at the dead bird and shook his head thinking it was a truck driver, I said no it was a young man driving a pick-up truck not a commercial driver.
This attitude is what the youth of today thinks of things, no respect of anything. They want to do what they want, when they want, and not to have anyone say a thing to them. This kind of person is what is wrong with today’s world, not responsible. This is cruel and unusable treatment of an animal and should not be tolerated.
