Thread: Messed up video I won't post...but you may have seen...

I normally would never hit a woman....but in this case, I'm getting my bat.


That's all I have to say about it

Where, in my statement, did you see me say that it was any different from those videos. Is this topic about those videos? No, it's about this video.

Guess what. I don't watch those videos either.

Filming the killing of an animal for pleasure is sick.
I hunt, I use a rifle that has the power and ability to kill with one shot. I dont care how big the horns are, I do it because I like eating venison. Canned hunting is lame. If your gonna raise the animal for slaughter just take it to the packing plant and let them do it.

Still not watching the video. I dont care for euthanizing animals, I hated seeing a kitten that was attacked by dogs crawling around with only its front legs. Unfortunately this world has pain and suffering. Sometimes we end the pain correctly sometimes not.

If my tone came off combative, I'm sorry, that wasn't my intention. I'm mostly just playing devil's advocate here.

Very true

I love cats and dogs whether they are mine or someone else's. I cringe when I see a dog running on the side of the highway, all I can do sometimes is not look and forget I ever saw him. It saddens me to see what that girl did. I think it's kind of weird of her to toss them in while saying "weee" though I don't recall if I heard it myself, I had the volume down low, just going off of what you guys said. Anyhow, it's not just cats and dogs that I feel sorry for when they die, it's all animals. Every time I shoot a deer and he drops but continues to move I feel bad. Sometimes when dove hunting the bird falls and turns into what I call a "helicopter" so I pull their heads off. If duck or goose hunting I have to twist their necks to kill them sometimes if I simply shot their ability to fly. This past Saturday I ran the fence line with my dad to check the snares and we had one dead raccoon, a live uninjured armadillo and a live injured bobcat. We set the armadillo loose and I shot the bobcat in the head with my pistol. I didn't get enjoyment out of it but it had to be done. In the video and in many parts of the world, it is not uncommon to use drowning as a method to euthanize animals to control population. Heck, in America it was quite common in the past to use drowning. Poor people can't simply afford to have animals fixed and can't always sell, animals like dogs can be a dime a dozen because there are so many in some places. Selling just isn't possible sometimes. Sometimes poor people can't even afford to feed and take care of the animals so they would prefer to be rid of them than let them starve to death. In my case, the Bobcat was still alive because he got his feet through the snare so it was wrapped around his mid-section. He would not suffocate to death, he was starving to death. Even in todays world in Texas, if a cattle rancher sees a wild dog roaming his ranch, they are shot on sight. Cattle ranchers can't afford to take the risk of loosing a calf by allowing a stray to live. Things are not always all peaches out in the country.....

As i dont necessaryly agree with what you do i can understand it. What i can not understand is just killing something for the hell of it or enjoying the fact that someone gets to do it. There is a distinct difference between the two. Sure my neighbors little ankle biters are annoying as fuck but it would never cross my mine to hold them under water. I could think about it but would never actually do it. Shit i take wounded animals to the vet when i find them or in most cases my neighbors bring them to me.
