Since When was animal abuse legal?

Lindsey, cease and desist. There is no winning an argument with Lavender. Just ignore it and move on. I applaud that you are concerned with animal welfare, as was the original topic here. I have my own opinions on the subject, but they are influenced by the fact that I was raised on a farm, and so I shall keep them to myself.

Point. I suppose I should agree to disagree. Frankly the whole no soul thing got me PO'd though. Meh I suppose.

I am sorry but I really find this hard to believe. A pet store selling mice after they die of natural causes as feeders. Not only would it not be the best for the snakes but is really not practical." Oh yes we have 1000 mice but I can't sale any for feeders until they die of old age. "
The only other thing I will say on this whole matter is, it is a good thing the human race doesn't really have to feed and care for itself anymore.
And also, why troll around for these videos and threads just to upset yourself and get all worked up. I mean in chat earlier you were going to call the Oklahoma animal protection over a thread in the BOI. Why not take all this negative energy and put it to good use and learn about taking care of your reptiles or what ever you keep.
 
I tried watching the video, but I found out it is a "Shark" video. They mostly show High School, the Cheyenne rodeo, and some in Mexico. But they say "ALL" rodeos are evil and cruel.

Also, I find this hard to believe. Disease is a natural cause. And some disease don't die after being frozen. After you thaw it out, your reptile could catch said disease.

I am not trolling. I wanted people to be aware, because if people are aware they can stop these things. I realize how much I am overreacting, I just get so fired up about this stuff ^^"

Abortion is different in the fact that people have souls and animals do not.

I will try to express what I think of this w/out getting banned, even though if you are on this forum it might be worth it.

what are you like 2 years old? Animals have more rights to a soul than most people! You really are a M@$on! There I said it and I feel a lost better!

Also, I don't support SHARK in general for as you said, they claim all rodeos are evil. I do have to agree with one thing though- I don't support Steer busting. I find all animals should be respected but you can't put a lable on people and say that they are all evil.

Having rights to a sould is kind of futile since animals have never had'em.
 
Guys, ignore Lavender. They are obviously trolling -.- don't give him what he wants.
 
Lavender only thinks animals dont have souls because some old book thats not even based on fact says it. Just another sheeple who cant think for his or her self.
 
Back on subject. I can't remember who said it because it was a few pages ago. I do enjoy rodeos, and the one here in Denver seems very well controlled as far as what I've seen. That being said, the SHARK videos (which I know nothing about the organization) do show cruelty. I try to use common sense and know that you can't judge a group as a whole based off of one person(s) actions. It's like saying all Germans are bad because of Hitler. Or all "skin heads" (I don't know if that is a faux pas term) are criminals. Sure, it's possible that there are more Hitlers living in Germany, but the majority of Germans are your average joes with both good and bad qualities. Heck, maybe Hitler even had a good side. Same with anyone else.

That being said, the rodeo showed in the video isn't a great one. I don't agree with treating cattle like that. I don't agree with doing it for sport. Back in the day, there was a purpose to it besides earning some points. I don't agree with the shock prods or the tail twisting. I don't believe in stressing out the animals like that or hurting them so.
