I think the pigeons are most discriminated against in society. No one feeds them anymore. They walk around and they don't sing anymore. They don't have shoes. People walk by them and ignore them. Many people won't even say "hello" to them. They feel isolated and alone. No one represents them in government. They are truly homeless. During the great war they worked for us delivering messages and they never received a pension. What do their children think of us???
