Two things came to my attention today that disturbed the hell out of me, and I can't quite decide which is more worrying.
The first was a video that surfaced on the web of a guy, probably in Western Australia, beating nine kinds of hell out of a kangaroo while his mate egged him on. I hate this sort of stuff. Sure, I eat meat (although not much), and there's nothing nicer than a marinated roo steak done medium-rare on the barbie, but the sort of person who would torture an animal like that has to be one seriously disturbed individual who's only a copy of Soldier of Fortune and a weekend of pig shooting away from climbing a clock tower with a selection of semi-automatic weapons and a cut-lunch.
What really disturbed me about the incident were the reactions of supposedly sane people to the bashing. The following are all comments from a Facebook group that was started in response to the attack ('Manhunt for the Wanker Who Bashed The Injured Kangaroo'):
lets find these f...cks and we can play smash the injured wannabe kickboxers!!
Anyone who is cruel to animals needs to be taken into the desert and pinned into the ground,have slits cut into their bare flesh and have honey poured into the wounds and let the ants and other insects eat them from the inside out.
…we can lynch the little fuckin idiot once someone knows who he is and feed him to the DINGOES.
It's a pity being stoned to death is no longer a legal punishment. I'd gladly break the fuckers that did this...
dont know exactly wat happened but YEAH CUT HIS BALLS !!!
They should be stoned in public!!!
I would love to take a claw hammer to this guys knees, groin and face.
i recon they shuld tie his hands up and let a roo kick the sh17 out of him and film and and put it on the net so he can be humiliated and noticed
they all deserve to get beaten up and knocked out just like they did to the kangaroo!!
animal cruelty to the poor kangaroo, u better not ever cross my path cause what I'll do to you will make what the NAZI's did to the jews look like child's play.
NO EYE FOR AN EYE BULLSHIT HERE. IN THIS CASE ITS AN EYE FOR TWO EYES, TWO EARS, HIS NOSE AND EACH STRAND OF HAIR RIPPED OUT FROM HIS HEAD ONE AT A TIME SLAPPING HIM AS HE PUTS UP A FIGHT.
LETS FUCKING FIND THIS CUNT AND KILL HIM!
COWARD PIECE OF SHIT MY HANDS ARE AROUND YOUR NECK AS SOON AS I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
i think a beating doesn't really do it justice.cut his balls off and throw them to kangaroos before being put in a cage and everyone given a stick to beat him with, keep him alive, maybe some chinese water tortue, and finish with him being hung drawn and quatered.
I want them both to die horribly and only after suffering for a long long time. Hurting animals is only one step away from hurting people
THE GUY THAT DID IT NEEDS TO BE HIT OVER THE HEAD WITH A BRICK THEN DRAG HIM TO A REMOTE SHEARERS SHED IN COUNTRY NSW. HE WILL THEN BE TIED TO A HOME MADE ELECTRIC CHAIR WITH A LIT CANDLE BY HIS BALLS. EVERY TIME HE MAKES A NOISE HE GETS SLICED WITH A RUSTY SERATED LOAF KNIFE AND A KICK TO THE FACE. ONCE HE HAS GIVEN UP ALL HOPE HE'LL THEN BE SET FREE IN A PADDOCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE SO THE POLICE HELICOPTER FINDS HIM WITH 4 BROWNSNAKES 2 FOXES AND 4 DINGOES FEEDING OFF HIM. THE PHOTO THEN SENT TO HIS MOTHER. IM SORRY FOR THE EXTREMETIES BUT YOU HAVE NO IDEA JUST HOW SICK THE ORIGINAL IDEA OF BASHING A KANGAROO IS COMPARED TO MINE. THIS BOY DESERVES TO FACE FULL ADVERSITY FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE.
Pretty disturbing stuff, no?
Who do you think poses the greatest threat to a peaceful society? Someone who, probably while dangerously intoxicated, does something stupid and violent that, hopefully, they'll regret for the rest of their lives? Or someone who, in cold blood, can advocate slowly torturing someone to death as punishment for any crime?
My personal favourite is 'don't know exactly wat happened but YEAH CUT HIS BALLS!!!'. This guy doesn't even know what happened, yet he still wants to mutilate the perpetrator! I just hope he's not on the jury if I'm ever accused of doing anything. ("Well, we didn't really understand the evidence, your Honour, and we dunno if he done it, but we reckon you should burn him at the stake anyway.")
I don't know.
Homo sapiens sapiens (now there's a misnomer for you) has been around for, what? About a hundred thousand years? And for most of that time there's been someone in the background saying something along the lines of 'Hey, can't we all just be nice to one another for a change?' (apologies to Douglas Adams). And for most of that time, they've been completely drowned out by the baying of the mob. If they were lucky, maybe they got a light jail term as a conscientious objector. If they were unlucky, of course, they found themselves nailed to a plank and placed in the invidious positition of unwittingly spawning a world religion that put the 'blood' in blood-shed.
Sometimes I wonder if we did the right thing bringing Iola into a world that has people in it…
