I don't think he was trying to offer peace

I noticed the one on the right leering at me when he got on the train, and I almost said something when he started bothering the woman sitting in front of him. But it really got me when he started making cooing sounds at me as I was exiting the car. At first I thought it was some sort of hooting dove noise, but a friend later pointed out that it might have been meant to sound like a pigeon. Whatever aviary he meant to intimidate, I don't think his symbolism is working.
