Most inhumane thing you ever saw?

I forget what the show was, but it was like a documentary and it was showing how this one dish was served in some Asian (maybe Polynesian) country.

At one point, they skinned a cat ALIVE, then dropped it into boiling water. After some time (like 20 minutes or something, I forget) the lady pulls the cat out of the pot again, assuming it's dead, and the the thing MEOWED. I had to change it, couldn't watch anymore...

I don't even like cats, but that depressed me so badly for the rest of the night.

How can ANYONE do this...

This is so horrible. :'(

@Park -- In a way, it's 10 times worse. That was some stupid cat, this was a child. I can have sympathy for the cat, but this is cruel beyond measure.XxxExtremeNJBXx

In recent years, little has enraged me more than this story, concerning the caging, systematic abuse, starvation and eventual beating to death of 13-year-old Christian Choate by his father and stepmother.

If this story doesn't make you rage ... and rage ... and rage, then there is something seriously wrong with your raging apparatus. :(

CNN Story: Why did no one notice the boy was missing?

WTF!!!

This is so messed up i cant even begin to describe.

Dad and step-mom are effed up

It bothers me that some people are even capable of doing stuff like this.

The sentence must have been life or something, that is just horrible.

Human trafficking, child abuse, slavery, cannibalism, homicide victims bodies being mutilated (cut up and torn apart) after being sprayed by AK47 rounds.Hemmaroids

I feel so bad for the kid, but for some reason I have more sympathy for animals, Any advice on what is wrong with me.

Well... animals are defensless

But in this case, so was the boy... :'(

Mostly stuff done to animals.

I saw a eel pulled from a public pond by youths, just so they could stamp on it to death. There was another example where kids kept throwing a kitten to a Rottweiler, it ran back to them and climbed up their bodies for safety, but they just kept throwing it back to the vicious dog and laughing.

After giving them a bollacking, we took the kitten off them; and brought it home. She had no tag, so we raised her as a family pet.

The things that kids do to animalsare really ****ed up

Lol that is awesome. The image in my mind of this situation makes the smoker seem completely fantastic.

Do you think this a joke? You think an animal being boiled is worse than a KID being tortured slowly and then simply being buried like trash? This makes me sad. Human life is more important than an animal's life, but just because cats are "Oh-so cute" they automatically become more important.

Some video was floating around the internet a few months back of a young woman picking up fairly young puppies from a bucket and tossing them into a river. You could see them squirm in her hand and they made a sickening splash upon making contact with the water.

The worst part about it was that she acted like she was having a good time, making noises like "whoooop" upon flinging them.

Boy Scout camp this kid tore the wings off of a dragonfly, and then proceeded to put it in a ziplock bag, poke two holes in the bag, and throw it in the lake. Didn't even try to stop him, still bothers me.

All life is sacred. A cat would definitelythink that its life is more valuable than a human life. You can't put a value on life.

That fish tofu dish is honestly no worse than our tradition of boiling shellfish alive. Both are still disgusting imo, but I suppose American cuisine is imune from accusations of sadism.

EDIT: There was also no mention of how we house chickens in cages barely larger than themselves for their whole lives, pump them full of growth hormones, then slaughter them in less than humane ways. Though I suppose most of the indutrialized world does this as well.

[QUOTE="ShadowMoses900"]

I went hunting with some guys I didn't know too well and we were all together but still seperated a little on our own to track the animal. A little later I hear two gun shots so I go back to see if the guy got the animal he was tracking, but when I got there I saw to baby dears dead. Now killing baby dears is illegal but what this guy did was just leave the animals there lying on the ground, he wasn't hunting for food or anything, he just wanted to go into the woods and kill stuff. Seriously that is like down right sadistic.

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'd probably do that too, but can we at least agree that that value judgement is biased because we ARE humans, and objectively all life should have the same value?

[QUOTE="black_cat19"]

[QUOTE="p00zer"]Exactly.. If there was a little girl and a puppy, and both were drowning for whatever reason, I would save the girl without batting an eye. All life should be respected, and the food industry is definitely inhumane, but I, as a human, value the life of other humans well above the lives of other animals.

[QUOTE="p00zer"]Probably. Though perhaps intelligence has something to do with it too. If there was another self-aware species on Earth, then who knows. That would make values complex..

p00zer

I probably would too. But it is arguable that intelligent animals are aware of their own mortality. And aren't all emotions and ideas somehow derived from instincts to survive? In any case, some animals do more than just try to survive. Primates are able to become bored (the only other species apart from humans who can), dolphins can recognize that it is themselves they see in a mirror- the list goes on and on. Humans are not so seperate from teh rest of the animal kingdom.

Well, elephants, dolphins and primates can all recognize themselves in a mirror and they all mourn their dead; besides, couldn't it be argued that our reasoning is just an instinct? Thinking is what nature "designed" us for? :P
