Publius [Claudius Pulcher], on the contrary, fell into ill repute among the Romans, and there was a great outcry against him for having acted rashly and inconsiderately and done all a single man could to bring a great disaster on Rome.
He himself remained in Syracuse waiting for the ships that were left behind on the voyage from Messana and procuring additional supplies and grain from the allies in the interior.

 Don't ignore the chickens
Anyway, this is the story of Publius Claudius Pulcher, a young, handsome and headstrong general during the Battle of Drepanum in 249 BCE.
But Pulcher was so sure of himself he threw the chickens into the sea, shouting "Ut biberent, quoniam esse nollent" which roughly translated means: "If they don't want to eat, let them drink".
It would be nice to think that we've learned something since Roman times, but remember the most important piece of the case against Pulcher was the crime of sacrilege.
