More than 900 chickens at a California farm were beaten to death with a golf club last month, The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.

The gruesome scene was discovered Sept. 20 at the Foster Farms chicken shed in Fresno. Authorities believe at least one person broke into the farm and slaughtered 920 chickens.

"Whoever did something like this is pretty sick," Deputy Chris Curtis told the paper. "It would take a long time to do it…People should be alarmed at something like that."

I was on Coast Guard LORAN station Kure Atoll. Brown rats got on the island when freight was unloaded sometime in the past and there being no natural predators they multiplied like, well rats. We used to run around at night with a flashlight and a golf club smacking the little varmints into the next world.

if he killed one chicken every 4 seconds, it would have taken him an hour to do that.

Compared to halal butchering practices that was downright humane.

I once asked a guy at a Jamaican Jerk Chicken stand if he choked his chicken before he jerked it - he was kind enough to act as if he’d never heard that one before.

20 chickens sounds more reasonable. I would like to see a photo of 900 chickens killed by a golf club...

Free-range lunch? Take all you can eat but eat all you take...

The birds were gathered and distributed later, 2 to a person, supposedly, somewhere in Ukrane.

920 chickens killed without reloading? That is what I call a high capacity weapon!

Now The Left will want to ban golf clubs—even as they chomp on fried chicken.

We can pretty much rule out Bruce Braley, as he'd have simply brought lawsuits against all 920 of them.

Or it could have been a Chicken Sand Wedge (on rye)

Obviously the work of a professional.

This isn't your run-of-the-mill chicken outfit.
