Cat Found Buried Alive in Concrete (up to its neck) - Arizona - Polidicks

Seriously, when did animal life become equal or more important than that of a humans? Some of you need to grow up.

This church is a splinter group from the mormons, started by a pedophile. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Jeffs[/url]

[QUOTE=Protocol7;36693268]If it really was religious nutjobs...[/QUOTE] Oh thanks.

I don't see why everybody is acting like women and closing the video. It's just a cat stuck in concrete. What do you even expect to see on liveleak? Bloody thing was whining all the way through though, had to get up and turn down my speakers.

[QUOTE=ReligiousNutjob;36696844]Oh thanks.[/QUOTE] no hard feelings man, can't even prove it was you

Nope. Not watching it. Fuck that. I'm gonna hug my 2 cats and dog now.

I really hope they burn in hell!

Such a catastrophic event!

That's really all it boils down to. I've never seen a cat show the same sort of emotions as humans at our level. If we're going to call a firing squad on these people, shouldn't we also on the people that raise cattle and slaughter them? To me it's the same sort of principle.

Oh my god the video I'm not one to get upset about stuff like this usually but this made my eyes well up :(

They simply aren't. I'm not sure if you understand what self-awareness is, but you need to not attribute it to things all willy-nilly. Meta-cognizance is simply the ability to think about the act of thinking. That is the threshold of self-awareness (e.g. I think therefore I am.) Cats are sentient, but so is goddamn near everything with eyes.

Consciousness as in sentience (the ability to react to stimuli with reason) is nothing special. It's sapience and meta-cognition that make humans special. This has long been the case.

Y'know, i think that the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints needs to be found buried in concrete. ...seriously though, that's freaking terrible. the Fundie Church of long freaking names needs it's shit investigated. Maybe Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wasn't exaggerating as much as i thought he was. EDIT: Yes, i am late. I WANT MORE CLOCKS.

[QUOTE=Mingebox;36698357]Well if that cat was, say, crushed by a giant ball of yarn, it would be funny.[/QUOTE] actually im pretty sure facepunch would threaten to lynch the ball's owner with yarn.

I'm not one who is easily disturbed, but this is atrocious. What a poor cat, it must have been in incredible pain. It would have probably been more humane to have put the cat to sleep while it was still in the cement.

I got up to where he showed the cat in the pipe encased in cement meowing and I cried. What the fuck is wrong with people? How the FUCK could you EVER look at something as innocent and harmless and adorable as a cat and think it would be in any way shape or form appropriate to do something to it you wouldn't do to a person?

My dad had lived in Arizona all his life, and this reminds me of the times when he told me that he would throw kittens into the canal and into wet semment. I feel bad for those cats even though I wasnt alive to be there.

[QUOTE=NoDachi;36692935]The video made me sad. Poor cat was terrified. Last year someone strapped a firework to my cat and nearly killed the poor thing, well it only lived a couple months after that, he never was the same. Some people are just sick.[/QUOTE] Did you kick the guys ass?

Though I have to say, at least where I live, it isn't uncommon for a lot of teenage guys to do things like shoot animals like cats with pellet guns or throw dead pigeons at each other. (shooting ranges use pigeons, and a lot of guys get paid good bucks to go round up the corpses and make sure they're dead and throw them away)
