Today's rant about human priorities:

It always amazes me when a disaster of some sort strikes and there is more of an outpouring of good will toward the animals affected than is aimed at the human victims.

Back in the '90's a woman was killed by a cougar while jogging in a park in California, a single mother who left a young daughter behind. Friends began a trust fund for the orphaned child that received some slight contributions, but the kittens of the cougar who was shot by park rangers received many times that amount, all given by the local community.

Then the other day I was reading Paul Theroux's The Kingdom By The Sea, his 1983 account of walking the length of Britain's coast, and I came across a story on page eighty-nine wherein he quoted a Daily Telegraph story of an Ulster family, the Hylands, whose two teenage daughters were dragged out in the middle of the night, tortured by the IRA, tarred and feathered in front of neighbors (the standard punishment for Catholic girls who date Protestant boys) and this poor family fled from their home with nothing but the clothes on their back, leaving behind everything they possessed ...including a dog.

The next day the newspaper was flooded with calls from concerned citizens eager to lend their help to...the poor abandoned dog.

I give up, lol.

Human beings are generally a***oles, really. A neighbor had a highly aggressive dog that pretty much scared the crap out of everyone. Their answer that it has never bit anyone was only possible because anyone with a drop of common sense steered WAY clear of it. It would chase kids on their bikes, once I saw it narrowly miss jumping on a kid who was riding his bike, who knows what the damn thing would have done to him had it gotten him to the ground. When some people heard what I told my kid to do in the event that he gets attacked by it, they acted like we were the Manson family. If a dog attacks you and you can't get away, STAB THE CRAP OUT OF IT, I'm not sure why that's such a problem. If a PERSON was attacking you in a way that could lead to the same injuries, and is not showing and sign that they are going to let up, you'd be well within your rights to do the same to THEM. There are the same a***oles that say "all hunters should be shot, I'd rather a human died than an animal".

It makes me want to puke every time I think about the fact that a) EVERY person I've known to get attacked or bitten by a dog, the dog "Had never done that before and would never hurt a fly", which brings them to b) "The kid HAD to have been teasing the dog", regardless of the number of witnesses that saw otherwise. Then these same a***oles go to court and claim lack of responsibility because "there is no way to 100% control an animal", THEN, they give the "The dog is a part of the family" speech. There are often the same a***oles that are bragging about how big and tough their dogs are right up to the part where the trouble starts.

I read somewhere that in the year 2006, Peta took in over 3000 animals and had all but 12 of them euthanized, making them by a very wide margin the WORST animal protection entity in the country in terms of success at finding homes for animals. Apparently being someone's pet isn't humane enough. Oh wait, the word "pet" is degrading. .   :lookingup:

I eat tons of food and never seem to gain an ounce. I tell people I got worms.

After gawking at Henry88's topic on the caption board, I think I've decided that one day I will make a glazed donut bacon cheeseburger.  So help me God...

Anyone else besides me find the song "Boys of Summer" really depressing, despite it's upbeat melody?
