    Oh but its just a donkey, hardly a big deal. Get over it

    It's a bit much to choke a donkey to death.

    That is sickening, really shocking stuff. Although, I'm just waiting for the person to come on bashing out the "Oh but its just a donkey, hardly a big deal. Get over it" type comments.

    This is just so sad. So depressing. Thinking of the kids up in a tree and trying to pull the creature up and watching in choking and in pain and it in distress. And not caring.
    Its so horrible.

    Am I reading correctly in that the family kept the donkey in a field nearby the house? Public land?

    I'm not for one second defending the scum that murdered the donkey, but surely just leaving an animal like that in a field nearby is just inviting trouble?

    And where exactly do you think most animals like horses, donkeys and cattle are kept. Exactly out in fields. FFS. Does not condone what those b's did to that poor young defenceless animal. They are just pure sick in the head.:mad:

    I don't think it's an over reaction, the scum that did that are just as capable of doing something similar to a person.

    An over reaction,do you think so.Its only a matter of time when a defenceless animal wont give them a big enough kick,rember that toddler in England that was beaten to death by two young boys,Jamie Bulger was his name.

    To be honest, anyone who eats meat can't honestly be sympathetic about this donkey.

    Pigs are hung up by their back legs and have their throats sliced, to get you that lovely bacon on your plate.

    Chickens have their beaks smashed off, wings snapped, legs sliced off, etc to make them easier to farm, for those lovely chicken burgers on your plate.

    This ^ is you (meat-eaters) doing this by proxy, you are responsible.

    I'm sure these animals would much prefer to just have their oxygen supply cut off by hanging like that donkey, than the lifetime of torture cruelty and pain they go through.

    Look this up if you don't believe me. Visit a pig farm. Visit a chicken factory.

    I'm vegan by the way.

    Because that's a seriously OTT, knee jerk reaction, and totally disproportionate to the, (admittedly heinous), crime.

    However, those responsible should be jailed, and never be allowed to keep so much as stick insect again.

    "We think it was just gurriers up to no good.
    Jeez, ya think? :rolleyes:
    I would have thought it was a gangland killing personally... maybe he was a drugs mule.
    They were absolute thugs."
    Ooh, that showed 'em... I'm sure they give a big flying shít about being called thugs... really, what's the point? You see comments like this every time something happens... "Ooh it was a cowardly attack carried out by reckless hoodlums".
    It seems so defeatist, like the only comeuppance they can expect is to be called a gurrier in the paper.

    Are you as sympathetic of the animals tortured and killed on your plate?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40 homme d'affaire


    Who probably went through a lot worse, than simply being hung.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,331 ✭✭✭✭bronte


    Oh FFS Why are some people allowed breathe? Well, may they get their just desserts. Bastards.

    im sure they wouldn't, but you wouldnt have a clue about it. Choking slowly is a really **** way to die. I'd take being stunned with an oul electro prod and having my jugular/carotoid cut (not "throat slashed" lol) over that anyday, quick and easy.

    All vegans equipped with high horse as standard.
