If it's an animal abuse video...i can't watch....

its not all about that emily ... yes its not nice i admit , but sometimes i think we all need to take a backward step and think about other things that are going in in the world ... just so we all realise how lucky we are ....

Don't get mad at me for asking, but are you guys more sensitive to the suffering of animals than that of other human beings? Thats been in the back of my mind because of a few posts Ive seen in the past.

That's a fair question, and I can only speak for myself and say that I'm not.

I can't stand to see suffering or abuse in any form, the images stay with me for a long time afterwards.

Sorry I shouldn't have implied such a thing. I've actually seen more supportive and nice people here than anywhere else.

I don't think it was appropriate to ask after you've seen this video :mad:.

I wasn't talking about the damn video, in fact I didn't even watch it. I was referring to comments in the past and it got me thinking that some people care more about their pets than they do other human beings. Here's a mad face for you too. :mad:

Depends on who the human is. :cool:

More seriously, on a gut level it can upset me more sometimes to see animals suffer because they're helpless on the same level that a toddler is helpless.

I couldn't watch the video. I can't even make it through one of those Sarah McLachlan commercials for the ASPCA. Between her voice and those images? Gah. ::(:

You should have watched it, to know what the thread you're replying to is all about. Even if you didn't, I assume you knew pretty well it was about animal abuse (and some not so bad human abuse). Why did you have the need to ask, seems as if you envy that to those poor animals :eek:. If you were only a bit sorry for those tortured animals, you would be SICK to ask this damn question I tell you.

Yes you should calm down. Cause first of all if you saw earlier I said I was sorry I asked the question. Second I thought it was about suffering in general and not just about animals. I dont know you and haven't done anything to hurt you and yet you use words like "sick" to describe me? Im not going to post on this anymore because this has gotten me all upset over nothing so don't expect to continue this little game with you any further.
