THIS IS VERY DISTURBING

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Animals can't reason on the same level as humans, have far less mental capabilities, and for the most part are not capable of the kind of love experienced by humans.
Same goes for the mentally handicapped depending on the disability you really want to go there? As far as experiencing love then no you are just mistaken, that's just wishful thinking.

While I do think this is cruel and unnecessary, it is astounding to me how hypocritical some of you are. Look, if you're honestly going to tell me that you never stepped on an ant as a kid or something along those lines, then you're either lieing or you did not have a typical childhood. And don't make up something like "the ant could've been carrying disease" or something like that. The kids killed a snake. They're not serial killers. And I'm sorry, but snakes are not equal to people. Animals can't reason on the same level as humans, have far less mental capabilities, and for the most part are not capable of the kind of love experienced by humans. I'm not saying that this was excusable, but if you think that someone deserves to be killed for something like this then you're no less sadistic than they are. Go ahead and report it to the authorities, good for you. But please be rational about it.

Aptly put.

To want those jerks to be killed is worse, in my book, than what they did.

I know that those are comments made in anger and nothing more than that.

However, having said that, if some of MFK'ers don't give a rats ass for snakes, they should, nevertheless, respect those who do, when, on top, the discussion is being held in a specific herp forum.

This is the same as some of us going to a thread about, say, Guppies or Discus, and demeaning the discussion on that forum.
 
I am not saying to report this to the authorities. There are hundreds are vids like this on YouTube. It is simply a disgrace. Some of you are missing the point. I started this thread to expose the evil and cruelty of humanity. YouTube also has a rule in their terms of service stating that "ANIMAL ABUSE MAY NOT BE SHOWN". But if you are going to say this is not animal abuse than you are crazy. You also can not say that snakes aren't the same as a mammal, or that their not loving. THEY ARE STILL A LIVING BREATHING ANIMAL. This thread was also posted in a herp forum so if you don't care about herps why even bother looking at it.

What has the world come to where abusing an innocent ANIMAL that didt harm you in any way is toleratedd?????? Also If they killed it in a humane way thats one thing, but wacking it against the pavement, laughing, and posting it for the world to see is SAVAGE.

But they are not little kids. They are old enough to know what is right and wrong
 
Teenagers are apt to do stupider things than kids. ( I know, I have 5 of them in one enclosure ).

Those are stupid uneducated teenagers ( what you guys call white trash ), BUT, of an age that will still allow them to see things differently in the future.

Anyone who beats an animal to death for fun is NOT right, and yeah as a little kid i stepped on the occasional ant but would never kill a snake (and i cup bugs now and take them outside). But these aren't little kids, they are teens. (And major ***holes)

And FYI, Jeffrey Dahmer grew up torturing and killing animals.

Jeffrey Dahmer actually used to butcher roadkill, Ted Bundy used to torture animals:screwy:
