I’m not a regular in the Pit, so I don’t know how the fuck to respond to this, so I’ll just say “maybe.”

No need to be familiar with the Pit; I’m just wondering if I’m supposed to be impressed that better people than someone you probably don’t know have called you worse things. Just seems like a poor claim to fame, like “hotter chicks have poured more expensive drinks on me” or something. If you mean you’re not offended, I’m pretty sure no one gives a fuck.

If you have a dog and I want your stuff, what else am I supposed to do? Or what if your little fluffy buddy happens to be an expensive purebreed and I know I can hustle the pooch off for a quick couple of hundred?

I wouldn’t buy a pedigree breed, so my pooch would only be worth something to me.

And that price is far higher than that for any inanimate object.

So, if you want to risk your life for my dog, you’d be a desperate or foolish person to try.

So now, looking at it from that angle, can you begin to see how some of us felt in those gun threads from last week? For you it’s a dog, for someone else it’s grandma’s wedding ring. Just because different people put different amounts of importance on different posessions doesn’t make your reaction all that different from ours then, does it?

Can you name a possession that can provide companionship, give you a feeling of responsibility, and show affection to you through thick and thin?

If you can, I’ll accept your point.

Just popping in to say that Kenny’s grandpa is indeed [a registered sex offender.](http://www.nsp.state.ne.us/SOR/Subject.cfm?vREGNUM=200108RHN)

And I’m pretty sure that cat was being squirted with plain water, not Windex. That’s still pretty torturous, though – cats HATE being squirted with water, especially in the face, that’s why it should only be used as a tool to keep them from scratching the furniture and stuff like that.

BTW, my (sadly departed) cat would’ve ripped that motherfucking twink a new asshole. :mad:

What’s with internet junkie shut-ins and bitterness? Of course your pets are more valuable than other humans because you stay online absorbing depressing shit and the cats and dogs are all you’ve fucking got.

A twisted 14 yr.-old I can handle. It’s the creepy shut-ins with vigilante fantasies that scare the crap out of me.

Do you pet it? Does it have a name? Can you stretch things that far?🙂

Either you’ve never had a pet of your own, or you are playing devil’s advocate.

It does have a name since it’s on a network, but I don’t pet it. So if the only real difference is a tactile response I suppose I could get a fuzzy keyboard or something.

And I have had pets, plenty of dogs and cats over the years and I’m not playing devils advocate, I’m playing out the hypocrite. Those who would choose the same response level as you’ve indicated in this thread to protect themselves or their families or their homes are nutters in your book, but if someone dared to raise a hand to Fluffy it’s justified? That’s nuts. You have a warped value system my man.

Oh dear god. Are these poor creatures going to be all right? (I don’t have the stomach to watch the video)

AGAIN, people-even for those of you who aren’t animal lovers-these are signs of some seriously fucked up individuals. Animal abuse=signs of sociopathy.

Holy fucking shit…gramps is level 3 sex offender convicted of sexual assault of a CHILD! Maybe these two little hitlers have been sexually abused all their life. That would explain a lot. But very odd that Kenny’s brother’s name iis also WESTON…named after his child raping grandpa…no wonder he’s fucked in the head.

ANd Grandpa Weston (aka Fred) Glenn lives in my Montecito CA, in a \> 4 million dollar home. Hard to believe that a level 3 sex offender would be that successful running a business (Glenn Oil)…or that so many people (including the $10 mil contract with the US govt) would support a business who’s founder is a child molester!?!  
ANd they did report on the news that the cat was sprayed in the face “with window cleaner”…not windex per se, but they did say window cleaner. No idea if the report was accurrate, but it makes little difference imo. The Glenn Brothers still show tremendous promise as sadistic serial killers. You can’t take that away from them.

I made a call to CPS (mostly because a young child can be heard in the backround screaming “stop hurting Dusty!”…no clue who the younger kid was but there is hope for that one since he knew this was awful) but they had already received numerous calls after the videos surfaced and said they are opening an investigation.

And if you are in any way squeamish…DO NOT WATCH THE VIDEOS…I will be haunted by the poor cat’s screams and the brutality of those kids for the rest of my life. I only forced myself to watch because I am involved in animal rescue and as horrific as it is, I want to know what these poor creatures endure. It also motivated me to donate a bunch of money to the ASPCA. They are now using Dusty in their ads, so maybe some good can come of this.

I personally think these two boys are damaged beyond repair and have already crossed the line to sociopathy. If you read up on serial killers, they all started off torturing animals…it’s classic behavior and cannot be ignored. Thankfully the DA knows this and is treating this case seriously (tho he did say he could not try them as adults due to the constraints of OK law).

Thank you for calling, **Enola Gay**. And thank you for doing what you do. (Yes, I know some say animals over people-but maybe it’s because animals don’t become fuckers like these assholes. And no, I’m not PETA. Just a sucker when it comes to anything cute and unable to fight back. Like child abuse)

Hey Douchbag, do a little research before you use words you _think_ you understand, ok? A ‘sociopath’ by definition is a person who has no regard for, and no empathy towards, the feelings and welfare of other _human beings_. Someone who abuses animals is _not_ a ‘sociopath’.

Pssst, big secret; Ms. Whiskers and Mr. Barky don’t really count as members of society, at least not normal society.

Take a vote and see how many people would be upset if all cats and dogs disappeared, and how many would give a fuck if those two never had the chance to torture another animal again.
