    Exactly

    Because nobody really cares, and animals dont have souls, they were created to reproduce and be consumed by humans

    Its inhumane to abuse animals, but I dont think it should be punishable by law, and especially not on paper like a record

    And maybe, just maybe it was him releasing steam which is better on an animal than human

      and animals dont have souls,

      Well, neither do humans, but we care about those for the most part. Also many people care quite a lot about their pets.

      I dont think it should be punishable by law, and especially not on paper like a record

      Well, I very much think it should be. Guess we just disagree on that point. Though I do agree there should be a mechanism to clear juvenile records of people are rehabilitated/don’t re-offend.

      And maybe, just maybe it was him releasing steam which is better on an animal than human

      Well, maybe next time he should try a tree or something.

        I guess we dont wanna live the same, and why should we? :)

        I am religious and for me only humans have souls.
