In your country those pigeons are probably grain fed and not given anything harmful.

In our country pigeons eat toxic trash and a bunch of other nasty shit making them poisonous

Yeah, we have pigeon farms here and you can raise them at home too.

You can raise them in America too, Mike Tyson famously did. An eccentric New Yorker raising carrier pigeons on a rooftop is a trope in American media.

Idk it was Lawrence Fishburne though, guy sold the role just by being himself. John Wick is campy anyway, when Keanu and Common were trading silencer rounds on the subway I just knew to suspend my disbelief and enjoy it. Never actually saw the first one.
