People Are Upset After Tax-Funded $92,000 Mural For Recycling Shows A Pigeon Fucking A Rabbit While Engaging In Butt Stuff With A Rat
A council’s attempt to spread the anti-litter message by painting a mural has been branded ‘obscene’ after locals claim it shows a picture a pigeon having sex with a rabbit. The tax-payer funded campaign which states ‘keep it clean’ has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, and residents in Staffordshire have said the council should repaint it. The artwork is the centrepiece of a £74,000 Government-funded project aimed at reducing rubbish in deprived areas. Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council paid a local graffiti artist to design a mural at a littering hotspot in the town.
Some locals have even called on the council to have the mural repainted. John Howard, 23, said: ‘I couldn’t believe it when I walked past it. It clearly looks like a pigeon humping a rabbit which is doing something odd to the rat. ‘It’s a pity really because the anti-litter message is sort of lost by the unfortunate and rather obscene positioning of the animals. ‘Makes you wonder what sort of offspring they’d have. Above the images of the animals, are the words: ‘Don’t be mean*Keep it clean!’ in bright pink lettering along with the slogan: ‘Take pride in our town’.
Mother-of-two Carole Webber, 34, said: ‘My husband saw the mural and came back to the house almost in tears of laughter. ‘He couldn’t believe the council paid an artist to basically draw a pigeon, rabbit, and rat orgy on the side of a wall. ‘It’s just ridiculous. I think the council should repaint it really. How do you explain pictures like that to little kids?’
This is one of those times where you look at the outrage and wonder if people can really be this stupid. We are living in an age where one of the most important issues is recycling and global warming. If you want to draw attention and raise awareness about the issue then you need to shock people. You wanna know how you do that? Well one way is to have a pigeon fucking a rabbit while the rabbit is playing with the butthole of a rat. That’ll get people talking across the entire world. Or at least two continents because this happened in England. This weird sexual image will get stuck in your brain. Next time you’re at Wrigley and you’re trying to get rid of your cup snake you might think “maybe I will just throw this in the trash” then you’ll think of this blog and THAT image of the pigeon humping the rabbit and you pause and walk the extra 20 steps to the green recycling container and dispose of it properly. It’d be a shame if they washed this over and lost that jarring message. This is a mural to remember. And, the orgy appears to be consensual so it’s really not problematic in any way.
Just goes to show that the only murals you can do now have to have wings so basics can post to their instagram.
