Endtimes?????

Just kidding. These are not as unusual as you'd think. Do some research. These things happen from time to time. Just so happens they're happening now.

They say the birds experienced some blunt force trauma. Couldn't that be explained by them hitting the ground from a thousand feet up?:tongueout

They were going after Dutch's T52s and he wouldn't stand for it any more.

I was just reading about another bunch of birds falling out of the sky in California recently. It seems that these things are fairly common, although reporting of the events has gone up considerably this year. Hmmmmm.....

Maybe they are more common than we think, BUT

We could just be being conditioned to believe that this is normal. Sure, out of no where 5000 black birds fall from the sky. I call BS

IU understand a year long drought is going to cause a lot of wildlife to die, but not all at once, in little localized areas like this.

IU'm just saying i don't believe most of what the media feeds us.

The fish could easily be disease since it was a single species in an isolated area. The birds in Sweden were explained as birds eating the salt on the road and getting run over. I guess the birds in Arkansas could have been roosting and spooked by fireworks and tried flying in the dark. They could have froze or run into things. Of course, it's just speculation.

They happen...sometimes they happen more frequently. Does that mean there's some weird significance to that?? Depends on what filter you're looking through I guess. Personally I don't think there's anything weird or spooky about it. The world will end when it does and if that's tomorrow, or 2012, or 5 million years down the road it's not like I'm going to be able to do anything about it. I know when I was a kid there was a large fish kill at a local lake. No one got bent out of shape about it. They finally found that due to the large number of Canadian geese wintering at the lake, the nitrogen levels spiked (from the goose poo) and killed the fish. Damn Canadians :grinFU:.
