I was only kidding, and I certainly believe you had every right to butcher a chicken on your farm. Also, a chicken's nervous system is not as developed as a cat's.
yeah i know. its kinda sad. people that won't live up to "if its worth doing, its worth doing right"
Oh, yeah, compare a guy who kills a cat to someone who kills 4 human beings, yessiree...
I can understand nine, but eleven?

So you believe that an animal can be tortured or be made to suffer at the hands of humans ....whenever they feel like doing it and not be punished? You think that's ok?"
When someone else is doing it, I think it is none of my business unless the animal is my property, in which case I would expect to be compensated in the same way I would be if they smashed out the windows of my car. Animals are property, not citizens.
On a side note, I would question the mental stability of a person who did the things you talked about. What would be the motivation?
Maybe I should be in jail. Not long ago, a squirrel ran under the car while I was driving with my two daughters. In the mirror, I could see it flopping around. I backed up and ran over it again. (But just once.)
The girls were appalled till they had time to think about it. No way were we going to pay for a vet for the squirrel, so the alternative was to allow it to suffer till it died.
Good because I'm keeping my on you.
Animal cops never arrest anyone until after they find out the FACTS about the animal.....no false arrests. I think they need more animal cops.
"I was only kidding, and I certainly believe you had every right to butcher a chicken on your farm. Also, a chicken's nervous system is not as developed as a cat's."
Nor is a cats as developed as a mans.
I knew you were kidding. I sort of snapped back. Sorry about that.
I'm keeping my 'EYE' on you ....
I hear lots of people are doin that.
Boy I agree with you on that one, you ever try to eat a cat? They taste terrible even when you are starving!(Go ahead a ask, I know you want to!)
You must be a Democrat. You take things people say and twist them around to suit your own purposes.
I don't even have to defend my statement.
We all know what kind of killer Tookie was and how much he deserved to hang.
That doesn't excuse the actions of this savage.
There are some people who post here who think that animals should treated like objects with no feelings.
Glad I'm not one of them. You obvisouly are.
Some reasons: They hate cats, just to be cruel, think they will impress their inbred friends, religious reasons, sexual gratification, get even with Ex, angry at the world, bored.....lots of reasons....some of which are exactly like the terrorists reasons.
I kept driving, tho'.
No I don't.
Seriesly, I really don't.
Based on most of the comments (at least the comments of the animal lovers) on this thread, I guess the appropriate response would have been to drive away and let it suffer.
Your belief on this is religious, which is fine, and most of us are happily eating loads of animals. But I don't agree with your belief that animals are sort of machines or teddy bears, both of which are man made. And in terms of awareness, your average farm animal may not be especially keen, but I do not want to test my awareness of surroundings against a grizzly bear, lion, etc that has decided to hunt me.
Tenderized cat waffle. Excellent job.
Well he could have just got out of his car and shot it.. Oh wait. They can't have guns.
Yes, they do. Take it from someone who's had to patch a few of them up.
