Americans love an alien / UFO sighting, and once any footage is shared online in places like reddit the internet kicks into overdrive.

Two days ago everyone was talking about this video coming out of Milwaukee, which left the on-air news anchors a little lost for answers.

I say news, but it was Fox so perhaps I am being too kind.

Did that satisfy the conspiracy theorists? Come on, you know better than that. These from Pickle:

“This is just another case of the government attempting to hide another UFO encounter by putting out some ridiculous explanation for it,” one Facebooker said.

“If those are seagulls they have been swimming in some nuclear waste,” one said.

“Seagulls don’t poop light emitting glitters,” was one chime.

And then there was this:

“They are called spirits people. Read your Bible,” someone said on Facebook.

Speaking of Bibles and spirits, why aren’t our dams full yet Angus Buchan? You said we would be topped up by March – that clock is ticking.

Almost like he was talking absolute baloney.
