Akin to the DSMFers that rob some place or deal drugs or similar, and post photos and claims on FaceBook and Twitter.

If a protected -not protected or even an extinct critter starts tearing my house up it's getting shot.

Lots of destructive, overpopulated winged pests protected by the migratory bird treaty that shoudn't be. Fugg the stupid azzholes that protect these varmints. If the last living critter of it's kind starts destroying my property it's going to be extinct pronto.

What caliber and distance to target did you use? Is your rifle scoped or open sights? I prefer open sites myself because of the barrel droop effect. Scopes are nice for low light though.
We have a terrible problem with hoards of long tailed grackles here in Central Texas, they are a pest and not originally from here. But because they are Federally protected we cannot admit to shooting them, poison, etc. I bet people do it though.

Cost over $3000.00 to replace woodpecker damaged rough cedar siding on my home this past spring. Pest control services won't touch them and depredation permits in my state take months to get if you're lucky. Tried sparkle tape and that worked for a while but the they came back then miraculously they went away 😇. Regulations have overwhelmed common sense

Your first thought should have been that the bird was telling you about the food living in that siding. Geez... Uh, yeah, you should have thanked that bird rather than shoot it. I had a woodpecker bang away on the fascia board on my roof line and that just told me that I had a bug problem. The board looked like swiss cheese from damage from Carpenter Bee larvae. You should have thanked that woodpecker and called an exterminator.

Clearly you have no problems stealing if you don't think you'll get caught. Poaching, too, in all likelihood. Great set of morals and ethics you have on display. No doubt you'd get along fine with Hitlery and all manner of other criminal elements you'd be likely to find in Philly and Pittsburgh who believe they can do whatever they want (rape, steal, murder, deal drugs, molest kids, etc.), because it's only illegal if they get caught. You've clearly got much in common with them; please, do continue expounding upon your morality and ethical code.

If a woodpecker was pecking on my house his pecked wouldn't be working no more that I tell you for a fact I've no doubt you'd break the law, any law at all if you thought you wouldn't get caught (by your own admissions). Would you also compound your unlawful, unethical behavior with utter stupidity by bragging about it on an open forum on the Internet? There are two hints there, going all the way back to the OP.

You're obviously too congenitally stupid to understand the two hints. No surprise there, as you're in PA and such things are simply a given in that location.

Only thing I agree with you on is, is stating it on open forum but he did what he had to do There are so many laws on the books that it is practically impossible to not break one or two almost daily. There's a huge difference between breaking one unintentionally, or doing as you have said you would/have done and the OP did and breaking one intentionally. The compounded idiocy of then bragging about it on an open forum on the Internet seems to be the one hint you actually caught. Congratulations...

Here I was beginning to think you were a modern day Jesus Not even close. Never claimed to be. Though, it's pretty obvious that you're a modern day Democrat. "Mrs. Clinton, did you know it was illegal to send classified and top secret documents over an unsecure e-mail and server? Gemby58 says it's only illegal if I get caught." God help you try to instill any ethics or moral discipline in any children you might have; the "it's only against the rules/illegal if you get caught" motto is a great one...

If she didn't we wouldn't be talking about it today So, because someone or something else breaks laws that makes it okay for you to break any law you feel like breaking, so long as you don't get caught? I go right back to that bit about how interesting such a moral and ethical compass would make raising kids...

Pose your motto ("It's only illegal if I get caught") to them and get their take on it. Betcha I know the answer...

I would say it's only against the law if you get caught You'd be wrong. Unless, of course, rape or murder or theft is only against the law if you get caught as well. "gemby" pretty much tells me everything I want/need to know and yes the level of idiocy on this thread is mindboggling and of course also explains the mess we find ourselves in...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

What caliber and distance to target did you use? Is your rifle scoped or open sights? I prefer open sites myself because of the barrel droop effect. Scopes are nice for low light though.
We have a terrible problem with hoards of long tailed grackles here in Central Texas, they are a pest and not originally from here. But because they are Federally protected we cannot admit to shooting them, poison, etc. I bet people do it though. Grackles aren't protected.

Conrad, I believe grackles are protected under the same stupid treaty that protects crows and magpies.. I could be wrong... I have also heard from a fairly reliable source that these birds can be killed when doing damage or about to do damage... They are ALWAYS ABOUT TO DO DAMAGE... Again I did not read this, but I know several state game laws state crows may be taken when they are doing damage..

Starlings and English or House sparrows, and domestic pigeons are generally unprotected most places. Grackles used to be unprotected in PA, but I don't know about now. Bluejays were unprotected in PA as well at one time, but fall under the crow treaty now, as well as probably the general ban on killing songbirds.
At the time I got my first couple of non-res PA licenses, there was actually a bounty on Great Horned owls. Not so much nowadays!
