A Virginia man faces up to a year in prison and a $100,000 fine after he pleaded guilty to killing a bald eagle today, first by shooting the bird of prey and then running it over with an all-terrain vehicle, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a statement.
The Justice Department said the 62-year-old Smithfield resident Allen H. Thacker shot the eagle, according to a statement of facts filed with his plea agreement, because "he was upset it had been hunting and taking fish from a pond located on his property."
A witness driving near Mill Swamp Road in Smithfield on March 13 reported that she saw an individual appear to run over a bald eagle with a red ATV, according to the statement of facts filed in the Eastern District of Virginia. The witness said she saw the individual drive in a circle and run over the eagle at least three to four times before he dragged it into the woods.
He must hate America. One year in jail isn't enough for this a-hole.

Drag the fricker behind his own ATV. Then pour salt on him.

Land of the free my arse. What other nation promotes freedom and democracy only to never live up to it? Thanks Obama, somehow this is probably your fault.

Should have just built a wind turbine
Same result with the eagle, but tax credits and fellating by the clean energy crowd instead.

It sounds like the only ones free to live their life how they please are the eagles.

Pay attention: The fish were eaten, the eagle killed, the man convicted. The only ones with life and liberty here are the judges and jailers.

Damn, a year in prison, $100,000 fine and forfeiture of his rifle and half the value of his ATV, all for killing a bird? WTF?
