humans are not animals, right?

humans: one bright red arse away from obvious.

i remain ever hopeful that any aliens that should ever come our way to take over our planet will kill us humanely.

EW... was that one animal (no idea what it was) skinned alive? That is sure what it looked like to me.

Nasty **** there.

If you are going to use an animal for something, fine, but for cod's sake, do it humanely. The human race is really sick.

I'm really sorry I watched that.

Not sick...just tired about being put-upon by unimportant issues when there are far more important things for us to all get ulcers worrying about.

Very true. There are many more important issues that need to be solve. I won't disagree.

The attitude, "its just an animal, who cares" is an underlying issue IMO. If we (the human race) can't even do something SIMPLE, like treat animals humanely when we "use" them, how can we expect to solve the "more important" issues?

Its sad that the human race, with all is accomplishments and advancements, still revels in the suffering of another creature.

Can anyone translate the subtitles on the clip?

I watched that video....pretty sad to see an animal suffer like that. I'd rather kill the person who did that to the raccoon than see the animal suffer like that. Just heart breaking really.

And WTF did they let it live and suffer? To film it??

That being said of my emotions.....I can tell you I have zero problem with fur, meat and whatever animal products. No reason to make the poor creatures suffer like that.

the moral equivelant of a snuff film.

I am kind of indifferent on all of this here. I see it as a small problem on the list of things that are out of wack on this rock we spin around on. But I do wonder? How long do you think somthing could live without any skin? Could it live long term? I have always wondered that.

Thats what I was thinking.

That's not even remotely close to what people have done, and still do, to eachother. It happens all over the globe, during wartime a lot of **** happen and in peacetime people get, tortured, dismembered, murdered every day.

It's sick, only seriously disturbed people can watch films like that one, and not be affected. The only thing that upsets me more than that film is knowing that people do that sort of stuff to other people as well. For sure, some people deserve a bullet in the head, or two. Witnessing such an act would make me want to kill, mankind would be better off without such people.

No animal could survive without it's skin for any longer period of time. Body fluid, temperature and obviously infections would be uncontrollable. Inevitable death within a few hours.

It is impractical to skin a live animal that is thrashing about in pain, so why do it when it is so simple to kill them without leaving a mark (poison, strangulation ... here they use electricity)?

The only answer I can think of: It is staged, directed and filmed for its ... commercial value to the animal rights organizations.

My guess is, this is a animal snuff film, filmed by and created for sick minds who enjoy to see animals (or humans for that matter) suffer. The acts seen in the film are unlikely to be supported by whatever corporation that farm those animals. This film could be produced by a animal rights organization though it seems unlikely.

My point is, what is seen here is no different from what you can see in other snuff movies, involving humans getting tortured and killed. It's just that this film has somehow gotten into the hands of a animal rights organization which of course takes advantage of it. If it's the true picture of animal farming? It does seem unlikely.

Just another example how utterly stupid, selfish and sick people can be.
