The only way the video is in bad taste is that it shows playing with the animals before feeding them to his turtle. I have fed live mice to my turtle, it's one of those things you do to see what happens, but to keep them and play with them and then feed them to your turtle is a little off.
I'll admit that this isn't the best way for them to go, but isn't that what these mice are bred and raised for? If these mice weren't fed to a turtle they would of probably met their demise in the face of a snake. It seems as though the second you put a mouse in the water people freak out.
I don't sympathize with the person that posted this video because he obviously made the video to get a reaction out of people, which he has surely achieved. This video was made to get a reaction out of someone, and that's what it did.

this is flying miles above your head. in one ear out the other
its lawmakers and people who influence policy (aka special interest) that leads to keeping animals like these being banned. i don't care what happens in fictional movies, this is real, and b/s like this is all over youtube and creating a bad image for responsible keepers. "ignorant people" make laws...
