I think they need to find the scum that did it and set them them on fire.

I think I am keeping away from forums from now on. I really didn't want to read about something that I can't do anything about.

If I were to say something sexist, racist or, heaven forbid, homophobic, 'They' would be down on me like a ton of bricks. But it's OK to show someone torturing an animal. What kind of a sad, mixed up, sick world do we live in?

The really worrying thing is they probably consider themselves 'regular guys' :twisted: . The farmer husband of a friend of mine thinks it perfectly OK to drown 'unwanted' kittens. This man goes to church every Sunday and thinks himself a 'God fearing man'. With that attitude to God's creatures, I think he's right to fear God! :x

I hope the revolting monsters who did that to that poor baby get what is due to them.
This is one of the reasons I left FB for months. I was sick to death of seeing dreadful, horrific images of animals during and after torture. One particularly haunts me to this day.
Weird to think that this is considered ok by FB, but a photo of two men or women kissing is taken down because it's inappropriate. 'Sigh'


Maybe we should set up a petition and see how that goes.
