Those guys are boneheads and animal abuse and harassment should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I think we should just let Darwinism take care of them.

Instead we're encouraging these people to procreate by giving them hand-outs like food stamps and welfare.
They probably bought the beer with their EBT cards.

You can't buy beer with an EBT card, but yeah, their lives are being spared as punishment so they can breed more dumbass offspring.

You can buy beer with the cash that you saved by having others buy your food. ;)
 
Yeah, I get the humorous nature of the thread. But let me point out something serious: how we treat animals is important. For the same reason we shouldn't just grab some random human and pour beer down his throat, we shouldn't do it to animals. Killing an animal to eat it is one thing; being unnecessarily cruel is another. If we allow it, we become animals ourselves, in the bad sense of that phrase.
 
They're lucky the gator didn't have them for a snack.
 
If it was Corona...what's the problem?

Any other beer or if they forgot the lime?

Throw the book at 'em.

Im not defending them or what they did but its not exactly the crime of the century here.

There is a finite number of resources available to prosecute and jail criminals. We have to pick n choose who we go after because for everyone we go after allows someone else to go unpunished.

Its irresponsible to go after these guys instead of the greater threats out there.

Well that gator knows how to party!!!!! Well in seriousness he was lucky he did not do it in texas, here we can hunt gators with a license, but it is a crime to tamper with any reptile without a handlers license or in the case of hunting a hunting license and within the yearly bag limit.

The law was mostly made for horned toads, which went from being everywhere in texas to being near extinct in texas except the western part where they are still thriving. We get them here in centex despite them being claimed as extinct here, but their numbers are few and far between, even residents here complain how they used to see them everywhere now they are lucky if they see a stray one every few years.

But back to gator abuse, in centex specifically belton and stillhouse lake there are gators, most in the latter and a few in the former. Residents still swear they do not live here, but man go to the back of stillhouse where it joins the lampasas river and kill just one, and the authorities will track you down!

I see people in texas use their ebt all the time for beer, I don't think they have a unified system to determine what is approved and what not when swiping the card, meaning it is up to the cashier to tell you and enforce it.

So.....cut their hands off instead, since the baby alligator was too drunk to do it itself?

If they keep messing around with gators, losing their hands will be the least of there problems.

Your posts suggest you have an issue with government assistance. Why is that? It appears to be the norm in all the developed world, for, say, a few generations now. My folks got some govt relief after my father lost his job right when my sister was born. True, one neighbor brought them groceries, another firewood as the family stories went, but the government also stepped in with some assistance. I presume you have no problem with the neighbor, but why with the government?

Like Jesus said, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.' He was referring to people of course but back then people were treated like today's folks treat animals. If they do it to animals, they have a superiority complex that may carry on further.

As studies have shown...

Many studies in psychology, sociology, and criminology during the last 25 years demonstrate that violent offenders frequently have childhood and adolescent histories of serious and repeated animal cruelty. The FBI has recognized this connection since the 1970s, when its analysis of the lives of serial killers suggested that most had killed or tortured animals as children. Other research shows consistent patterns of animal cruelty among perpetrators of more common forms of violence, including child abuse, spouse abuse and elder abuse.​

It's often a tale, tale sign.
