a friend of mine hit a cat with his car ... it came out of these bull rushes at the side of the road - he had no chance to stop.
when i got out it was writhing all over the road like it had 10,000 volts running through it. Its back was obviously badly broken and was suffering horribly.
I dont know where i got the strength but i went over and put my foot on its throat and suffocated it.
that was over 20 years ago and i'll never get that image out of my head if i live to be 200.
as far as the debate goes ... not being a religious person i have a hard time with the arguement with animals vs people ...
i can see both sides of the arguement clearly - but i do know this .. no animal ever threatened to destroy the planet before - except us.
fucking dinosaurs .. massive creatures that struggled for life every day of their lives - existed for over 250 million years and left the planet the way they found it.
in a fraction of that time that compares to a blink of an eye - 'man' has managed to put an entire planet on the edge of destruction .. in more than just a couple of ways.
we all work, sleep, eat, contribute (or not) try to meet our goals, breed, attemp a better future for our children .. but the long and short of it is : man is the foulest disease ever let loose on this planet.
on a more shallow level - yeah - i feel very sorry for animals that die in real life as a result of intentional harm .. they dont know what the hell is going on.
in a movie - i could care less .. that dog/cat actor probably just made more in that movie than my entire salary for the past year.
