California teens arrested in 920 chicken deaths

With golf clubs? For fun? Do tell...

No, but we do kill them because they are not seen as desirable for one reason or another.

So you're trying to equate that with teenagers killing for fun with a golf club.... slow day today? No other threads to poke at trying to get a rise out of someone?
 
We kill millions for food - mature chickens for human consumption. Yet somehow and for some reason we don't kill millions of hatched chicks with golf clubs, probably because golf clubs are not used for human slaughter of chickens and that humans don't eat immature chickens.

The industry does however grind male chicks alive once they've been sexed.

Of course, need hens and not rosters. Wonder where that chicken paste ends up.

No, I'm saying we are already kill defenseless chicken at any age we feel like doing it. Is your only complaint really that they used a golf club and they did it for fun? Wouldn't that mean you really don't care if defenseless chicken get killed?

Probably added to the chicken feed... waste not, want not.

Oh, I have no doubt that it's sold and used somewhere. I just wonder if it isn't sold as some form of human food additive.

I've got no problem with chicken being killed for human consumption. I already said that so you must have missed it. Yes I find the waste, golf club and doing it for fun disgusting. Funny how you didn't get that from the OP.

Again, you realize we do kill chicken for other reasons than human consumption, right? Do you think we eat the chicks we kill? No, they get thrown in the garbage. Hell, if it is a male chicken we kill them when we do to save money. A chickens life is terrible no matter if it is killed with a golf club or in ways we deem socially acceptable. In the end, it really makes no difference. They either wait around in a cage to be killed or get killed early when they fail their inspection. The only reason we raise chickens is to eat their eggs and to eat them. We don't raise chicken because we care for them or that we want what is best for them, but because they are food. This whole outrage is really just not all that believable when you really consider what we do to chickens.

I'm not asking you to believe my outrage - what you do or do not believe is irrelevant. Comment on the actions of the story or do not. This thread is not about me..... for one stating obvious things the main obviousness of this entire forum seems to escape you. Now... anything else to contribute?

I think there is a diffrence, this way of sadism can be used toward humans.
 
Don't we kill literally millions of chickens every single day? Aren't they are defenseless when we do it? So basically the complaint is how they killed the defenseless chickens and not so much that they did it. Is that about right?

The point here is that they are not civilized human beings for doing what they did on several different levels....
Oh but then of course you wouldn't understand anything about civilization Henrin... sorry...

These morons killed for amusement.
When Chicken farms kill chickens, it's so others can eat.

I hunt but, generally only for meat and the occasional varmint that attacks my chickens or other pets.

I'm after a feral cat as we type.

All the meat on those chickens was wasted.
 
I don't know why but as I get older these stories make me more mad than almost any other. Perhaps it's because these animals - whether they were destined for slaughter and supermarkets or not - were wasted and my assumption is, as a means of amusement and laughter.




California teens arrested in 920 chicken deaths

I'm not a PETA person, but I'd like to see these bastards, regardless of age, get whacked 920 times with a golf club as punishment. Perhaps getting beaten within an inch of their lives will give them a new perspective of life - especially the lives of those animals which have done nothing to them. These are some sick ****s and future serial killers... so happy they caught them and hopefully throw every book they can at them.

When reading the headline, it immediately came to mind that someone must have gone overboard 'choking the chicken', but naaa, they used a gold club.

Regardless, a bunch of sick ****s, that's for sure.
 
All my life I've felt that there is something fundamentally wrong with those who abuse animals. The lack of empathy is scary. From an article on the characteristics of animal abusers:

Mental health professionals, law enforcement agencies, child protection and social services agencies, and educators recognize that animal abuse is aggressive and antisocial behavior as well as a reliable predictor of violence against people after a young abuser grows up. Most animal abusers are adolescent or young adult males, many of whom have a history of antisocial or criminal activities, such as vandalism, assault, and arson. Many of them are themselves the victims of physical or sexual abuse. Those who commit acts of animal cruelty often feel powerless, unnoticed and under the control of others. Their motive may be to shock, threaten, intimidate or to demonstrate rebellion against society's rules.

In my view, this is just indicative of what appears, at least to me, to be a distinct devaluing of life in all forms by many young people. Damned if I know why.
 
Senseless, despicable act by a bunch of kids who enjoyed hell out of slaughtering small animals that could do nothing to defend themselves. It was brutal, intending to cause lingering physical agony. I'm not saying they will all grow up to be serial killers; I am saying I won't be surprised if they do. They are a bunch of truly sick ****s.

What in the world could possess anyone to "kill" 920 chickens that aren't meant for consumption?

I swear this new generation is bat**** crazy... They have no TRUE morals, ethics and can hardly tell the line between what is reality and what is phantasy.

This ****ing progressive ideology has destroyed basic morals and ethics and turned those ideas into a "so what" delusion.

At least these narcissists didn't kill people which I'm sure were on their list.
