Yeah, I'm laughing. There is a basic and fundamental difference between people and animals. Animals, for all that they are, are not people.
My admittedly vast supply of outrage is currently running low. Recently two young girls were murdered in Oklahoma, a woman in Austria was held captive for 7 years and raped by her father, a seven year old girl beat a toddler to death in day care, five year old twin girls were murdered by their father, incidents of teacher misconduct are rampant and I could continue but it's getting too depressing.
After reading and discussing this vast litany of misery inflicted on innocents by their fellow man, I just can't get overly excited because some guy is molesting a goat.
The main thing I'm thinking is
Thank God it wasn't another child.
And no I don't feel particularly bad that he got kicked either. As the saying goes "You plays the game, you takes the chances".
As far as what the people are like here, I can attest to that.
The vast majority of the people* here are compassionate, caring and will bend over backwards to help complete strangers. I have seen people offering prayers, support, friendship, counseling and advice, even RL help when it was feasible and appropriate.
It would be a disservice to yourself and the other posters to judge everyone on one thread. Read the threads in the other forums. Read the Missing/Unidentified threads. The ones where posters are researching decades-old cases to help complete strangers. Read the Jury Room and look at the support that goes on there. Theres a lot more to this website beyond one thread.
*I, of course, am a cynical
with a really twisted sense of humor. Oooo. It's almost lunchtime. Maybe this calls for a cartoon...
ETA: The Rest of the Story
Wow, I just saw the dates on this. A zombie thread man, it rises from the grave.
BTW, the man wasn't kicked.
He was being "anally serviced" by the horse. When the animal ejaculated, the force ruptured some internals.
I remember reading about this way back when it happened. And, yes, I laughed my a$$ off. No pun intended.
