Girl throw puppies in a river and film herself

How could you even do that? I really hope this is fake.

Actually, this is a pretty traditional way to dispose of unwanted animals (yes, kittens also) when your pet has children, although this girl does unfortunately seem to be having more than the traditional amount of enjoyment. Spaying/neutering wasn't always commonly available, and adoption wasn't always an option. I don't approve of this; I just thought it'd be useful to point out that not everyone would perceive this as the brutally inhumane act it looks like to us.
 
I don't get it. I have 2 cats and I love them.


EDIT: Nevermind, I don't want to start a 5 page argument.
To ensure world peace, we must become adults and vegetarians. Thats the message he's trying to get to us :tu

No, to express any kind of sadness over seeing animals being killed in a non-mercyful way, one must not support the meat industry wich kills animals in comparable ways.

So, killing animals for food, and killing animals for no reason, when there are perfectly humane ways to get rid of them (the pound) are the same morally?
:fp

Such as?
Smashing them with a hammer?
Keep in mind that in rural areas adoption isn't quite an option.

I agree that it's cruel but I have no problem with people doing it for necessity.
(same goes to butchery). But whether it's appropriate to record a video of yourself enjoying killing these puppies is another question.

Killing animals to get the food you want when you could eat something else is on the same level as killing them for enjoyment IMO. (lol, I start to sound like a vegetarian).

And as qqwerf said, you have to get rid of puppys and kittens in one way or another.

You're ignoring the fact that the meat industry does NOT kill animals in humane ways. I don't care why you're killing an animal- if it's not done in a humane way, whether it's for food or for your own sick pleasure, it's wrong.

If you don't believe me that the meat industry does not kill animals in humane ways, I can start posting links and videos.

EDIT:
How about killing a fly? What does the moral rule have to say on this?
Depends on your ethical code, of course.
 
I was just going to say that I saw this on /b/. But then I realized ten people did before me.

I saw this on /b/ last night.
 
I'm a vegetarian, but I definitely don't see this girl and the meat industry on the same level. They're both bad IMO, but... this girl is much worse.

It does not have fur and is not cute so they don't care. :rolleyes:

Exactly my point. Nobody would give a damn if some girl killed 3 flies and filmed it.

Besides, the physics of the video isn't right. I had a golden retriever that gave birth to 6 puppies. None were, even when they were just born, that light so that you can throw them that far that easily.

Maybe this is a different breed, who knows.

I'm not saying the meat industry kills animals in humane ways, I know they don't, but if a puppy is killed in an inhumane way, when it is probably (I say probably because she doesn't look to be a poor person that lives in an area without a pound or shelter) possible to do it in a humane way (but she chooses not to) is more wrong than killing an animal, whether it be humane or not, for food. But I can't argue with your morale code, and this isn't going to change your mind; I just wanted to put out what I think is right- killing an animal for a good reason is better than killing for no reason.
 
Ok, what is a humane way of killing an animal which you intend to eat?

And this is exactly what most vegetarians debate. In a developed western society, does the enjoyment of the taste exceed the suffering inflicted?

That's also an extremely basic form of the question, completely ignoring efficiency/environmental concerns, or the effects in the developing world of large companies buying out huge swathes of land for meat production, amongst other things.

I'm not trying to start a war, just these types of discussions about animal morality naturally lead to these questions...

How is killing a vegetable better than killing an animal?

Sure it looks much more horrific when an animal gets slaughtered rather than some crops being collected but, what's the actual difference?

Yeah, read the comments on this video, and compare it to this thread.

Well apparently people do care, but not in the sense of caring for the flies that died. We do have some messed up genes lol
