Those are some sick son's of ********. Makes my blood stir up. What kind of freak gets off on that sh**?



Hit a cat with a car if it's unavoidable...that doesn't bother me very long (but that discussion has already been hashed out). But such senseless, mindless, cruel acts of torture as this are not done by stable people.

Once, in a undergrad chemistry lab, I dropped some con sulfuric acid on the back of a cricket. It didn't bother it at first, but when it started trying to rub the acid off as it finally burned through the exoskeleton, I went ahead and killed it rather than watch it suffer. It was only an insect, but I still felt bad. I've done animal experiments in upper level physiology courses, but they were all done with anesthesia and the animals were humanely put down when we were done. The worst was pipping the frog. It verged on being cruel, but....if you really want to know, ask.
