Germs arent animals, they are either protozoans, bacteria or viruses. So endeth Mr Anal Technical Guy's lesson.

Oh well if you really want to do that
just show little kids getting tore apart
piece by piece with the full bloodie details!

Then you really will have a completely Despicable killer!
Hmmm Not to meation a lot of people vomiting there guts all over the place.

I mean if your going to go out for evil
Hell go all the way!
It's all about context and manipulation. In the dog soldiers example, there werent any little kids to be torn apart into bloodie (:rolleyes: ) pieces. and there is a huge gulf between the quiet nutcase next door and Pol Pott.

I hop eyou are just acting over-sensitive to someone criticizing what you said (and trying to be constructive, i might add), but your suggestion is like saying "well, why dont we just nerve gas and nuke the entire middle east? that would stop them from fighting!"

Calm down. Fluffy wasnt really hurt, that is what the disclaimer at the end of the credits is for. Dont be one o fthose "this offends me a little so the whole world should stop doing it" people.
