No, you're right. They're just animals, I don't see why people bitch so much over it. If I buy an animal I should be able to treat it however I deem fit.

Here's the logic behind animal cruelty legislation:
"Puppy!"
"Kitty!"
I don't think I'm exaggerating.
Well, animal cruelty is a pretty good indicator of violent behavior towards humans, if nothing else, and seems to speak to a general lack of empathy, which seems like something that ought to be discouraged.
By itself, no, I don't think indicates that.
Statistics disagree, as do almost all psychologists.
I'm pointing out the fact this legislation is designed to protect some cute furries, and if it protects something that isn't then it's entirely coincidental.
For examples 1 through 87630894 I point to the meat industry.
I agree here -- I think most vegetarians, vegans, etc, in the developed world do what they do because they’ve seen way too many fucking anthropomorphized animals in cartoons and books and shit.
Some do it for religion, but that’s less prevelent in the West.

Depends on whether you attribute worth to animal suffering.
I do, actually. I just don't think people care about animals' suffering as much as they say they do. Just the cute ones. Some animals probably suffered for the meat you're eating just as much as Vick's dogs. Some more. Are you outraged? Gonna stop eating meat? Then why does everyone act like they're so much better than the guy?

Yeah, but you didn't mention any instrumental skills.
Hippie said I am learning bass. And it's true. Once finals are over I'll even be taking lessons, honest.
Great, now I just need a guitarist.
Or maybe a good bassist, since it's possible you suck. :P
Are you seriously a drummer? I haven't found a competent drummer in this state since I was in high school, and that fucker move to Montreal or some other fucked Canadian place.

I hope you're joking.
Animals are property.
See, I don't actually have an objective argument against this point of view, but it doesn't matter, because animal cruelty laws aren't going anywhere anytime soon, so I can still call the cops on you if you treat a pet like shit.

Dude, torturing a livivng thing should be illegal. If you kill the cat to eat it, I don't care. If you buy the cat to torture and be fucked up with, I hope you die.

Maybe it's because its easier to stop guy who just want to hurt animals then the whole meat industry.

Are you, like, new to this topic area?
Many people are pretty big on humane predation.
There's a big difference between kicking the shit out of an animal and killing it swiftly for consumption.

I won't, but I should have every right to. There's really no reason I would, but it's just an animal. There are better things to concern yourself with. For instance, the welfare of people.
Well [chat] is getting all serious and boring and shit so I’m going to go play some CoD or something and maybe eat some food. Food with animal parts in it.

And when is Colonel Sanders going to finally get his life sentence?
I mean I consider jail a place for members of society too dangerous to be allowed to intermingle with the rest of us, not a guy with no priors to speak of who financed illegal gambling that is prevalent in all kinds of lower income neighborhoods, but got roped up for it himself because he's actually a celebrity. It's crap.
I can even understand some jail time, but a month short of two years? So Vick doesn't harm who again?

You really don't care that it is alive?
It's an animal. It's no different than fucking with a character in a video game. It isn't a person. Why should I care?

Why exactly should you have every right to do whatever you want to an animal? Just because you can? I hope a bear eats you in the woods, not because it's hungry, but because it can.

Aem you and I should totally play on our xflop together some time. What's your tag?

And for #87630895 onward we can point to game hunting.
And hunting resorts. Those things are nothing more than execution pens, at the moment. But oh noes, Vick shot dogs. What an awful man he is. Not like some rich executive lining up a deer that's been bred just so he could shoot it in his sight.

You will find a glorious idol, untouched by humanity for centuries.
So who owns the fish in international waters?

:P A guitarist won't be hard to find. And, I do suck, as of right now. But I'm dedicated.
So are minors.

You can say the same thing about children.

Awesome.
By the way, I am totally down with people who don’t eat meat for health and environmental reasons, though.
Vegetarianism is way more environmentally friendly.
Oh fuck, I forgot about the drummer, how could I forget the fucking drummer?
No, I'm a singer/songwriter/pianist.

Oh... wow.
That's uh... that's really fucked up. I don't say this often, but you need to see somebody.
