The Murder of Crows Act
WHEREAS 23RZ3 (The Crow Act) designated the crow as the national bird of the Kingdom of Talossa, and
WHEREAS said "Crow Act" asserted, arguably mistakenly, that crows travel in "huge herds" or "flocks," and WHEREAS the proper term for a group of crows is said to be a "murder," and WHEREAS the fact that more than one crow being a "murder of crows" makes them all the more cool, and
WHEREAS an inadequate understanding of the coolness of crows may result in some future Cosâ deciding to replace it with another bird found in the GTA, such as the Common Grackle, and
WHEREAS the Common Grackle is mos' def uncool, and
WHEREAS those Talossans who think that ravens are cooler than crows should be informed that ravens are actually a TYPE of crow, now
THEREFORE, the Ziu hereby 1. reaffirms the crow as the national bird of the Kingdom of Talossa, with full knowledge and awareness of the coolness thereof, and 2. officially makes a murder of crows (in Talossan, 'n asasinà da crovâs) the national group of birds.

This sounds like a good idea. Who would ever have thought that a group of crows is called a murder. [When I read it, I thought it was about murdering (killing) crows, but who really cares]
