CRY ME A RIVER. here goes sandtiger again. watch out. he has found ANOTHER reason to whine on our forum. why do yopu keep coming back if you are in the minority.
OMG...

You know why I come back? Because your post are so much fun to read. You gotta be the biggest hypocrite on the site you know that. "Respect everyones opinion, be nice to eatchother" then all of a sudden you attack me personally and the views of people on this site, then try to offend them further by threating to feed other animals to your fish. Whole lot of respect you have right there.
i feed rats to snakes and monitor lizards so why the hell would the ASPCA put someone in jail for that? THEY WOULDNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are compaireing apples to oranges. The reptiles you own evolved and are designed to eat mammals. The fish are not. Sure, once in a while a fish in the wild eats a rodent or something but they have not evolved as specialized mammal eaters. Do you have cats and dogs? Do you feed them rats, mice, rabbits, birds etc? It is far more natural to feed cats a dogs live mammals then it is to feed a fish. Stop with your hypocricy already. The only reason you are so upset is because you are exactly the same kind of bad ass wannabe I was describing before.
the rat was bought at a pet store with the label FEEDER RAT on the cage it was pulled from. therefore it was destined to be fed to something. it doesnt say FEEDER FOR SNAKES.
Can you prove that? And just because something is bred to be used as food does that mean it has to suffer in the process?
you are always here bashing on people for their videos. do us a favor and watch no more of them and dont tell us how BAD AND CRUEL we all are.
The last thing I want to do is do you a favor.

You are cruel and you like to think your bad. I am mearly pointing out the obvious. BTW...how many videos have I bashed? Please...dig up the posts and show me. I bet this is the only one. Know what your talking about before opening your mouth.
but the only thing certain in life is death and it was that rats time to die.
Remember that when your time comes, or when the time of your loved ones comes. Maybe someone will kill a member of your family...don't get angry, just remember it was their time.
I have no problem with death, I have a problem with suffering. If the rat was killed beforehand humainly then I would not have this problem.
sometimes life sucks. and if you happen to see a video of a dog gettin ate by some p's then MAYBE i could see where you were coming from.
Why? Do dogs feel more pain then rats or something? Dog, rat, fish...whatever...I don't hold one animal on higher regard. Suffering is suffering no matter what the animal in question is.
i think rats do feel pain, but his death was swift and to the point. im sure he didnt feel too much at all. he couldnt see what was coming to eat him so its not like he had to watch. one sec hes swimming the next his legs are ripped off and his belly is gutted. COOL VIDEO!!!
Nice justification. Yeah right...really crappy justification. The rat wanted out of the water, it was clearly in some kind of panic. Next time you fall off a boat into a chum slick full of sharks about to munch your legs and gut you then you can report back on the pain the rat felt. Believe me, when you are in pain (and I know for a fact) minutes seem like hour. I don't care if I am about to die, I want it painless.
