Cat abuse and desensitizing cartoons

What does that have to do with anything? I hate possums, but I wouldn't throw one into a fire or lop its head off.

Yeah I dunno why, it seems like people have to go out of their way to let us know what they hate.

All I can say is, "That's great! You feel that way. Carry on".

Recently in the past 2 weeks i have heard of two crazy cases of cruelty to cats. One happened here in my city! I have even met this guy. He lopped off the head of two of his cats! He said they were crazy and after him in the paper. So i do some digging of my own and it turns out the guy had a house had unspayed cats they got pregnant. They had feral cats that scratched him a lot and peed everywhere so he killed them1 He then felt the need to brag about it at a local bar and that is how he got caught.

The next i saw in the news was a dispute between a couple. The guy slaps the girl so she runs out on him. He takes her 4 kittens and throws them in the fire! She comes back to find them. This guy is getting 1 yr in prison. The other guy is getting up to 16! I personally think the burning is worse and that guy should get more time too. For the first guy spay your cats! SEcond guy is just !@#% angry!

I also see that cartoons these days are super violent! This isn't comical like tom and jerry in a nice way. It is using a delivery man using the punchline this was a worse delivery then when my wife had a miscarriage. That had nothing to do with violence but i found it odd how warped comedy has become. OUt of 3 that i watched i saw about 9 accounts of violence. 8 of these had blood. about 3 of these had lots of blood!

I heard about the 2nd case. What a ***** if he hits his girl & then tops it off by killing 4 of her kittens :cmad: Hopefully him & the other guy get paired up with some cat lover ...












serial anal rapist killer :cmad:
 
I detest animal cruelty with a passion, being an animal lover. But I don't see how cartoons have any effect on it. A lot of it now is done as part of gang initiation.
 
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." - Ghandi

"He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals."
--Immanuel Kant

"A righteous man has regard for the life of his beast."
--Proverbs 12:10

"Until he extends the circle of compassion to all livings things, Man will not himself find peace."
--Albert Schweitzer

"I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it."
--Abraham Lincoln

"Love animals: God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble their joy, don't harass them, don't deprive them of their happiness, don't work against God's intent. Man, do not pride yourself on superiority to animals; they are without sin, and you, with your greatness, defile the earth by your appearance on it, and leave the traces of your foulness after you--alas, it is true of almost every one of us!"
--Fyodor Dostoyevsky (novelist)

"Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages."
--Thomas Edison (inventor)

"Even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath, so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is Vanity."
--Ecclesiastes 3:19

"Not to hurt our humble brethren (the animals) is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission--to be of service to them whenever they require it... If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men."
--Saint Francis of Assisi (mystic and preacher)

"Love of animals is a universal impulse, a common ground on which all of us may meet. By loving and understanding animals, perhaps we humans shall come to understand each other."
--Dr Louis J.Camuti (1893-1981)

"For as long as men massacre animals, they will kill each other. Indeed, he who sows the seed of murder and pain cannot reap joy and love."
--Pythagoras

"The squirrel that you kill in jest, dies in earnest."
--Henry David Thoreau

"In studying the traits and dispositions of the so-called lower animals, and contrasting them with man's, I find the result humiliating to me."
--Mark Twain

Do you abuse your own pets, Lucy?

i think you do. :down

I have never abused my pets! I had an $80 dollar item chewed up by my chihuaha and I did nothing to him. I had a child fence put up, but he still manages to get in!:cmad: AS for my cat i would say she abuses me every time i try to trim her nail she scratches the hell out of me. As for my typing i hardly understand it myself and cartoons have nothing to do with this animal violence. Just something else i had seen as well
