I get a bit worried about how upset people get about animal cruelty
I mean i'm not going to pretend that people shouldn't be upset by it but sometimes i think people lose perspective.
I don't get why people think it's ok to say that people who are cruel to animals should be killed. Maybe that animal was cruel to other animals, what then?

Also,
I would happily catch and kill a pheasant or a rabbit. What about a deer?
I am wondering what the legalities are here - killing a 2 day old fawn by hitting it over the head and stamping on it would be pretty quick and I would possibly suggest legal on common ground?

I think it would be a cause for concern in the story posted above - this clearly wasn't because the kids were hungry and desperate
how that translates into law-speak i don't know.

they don't usually kill the fish, do they?
animals are generally more cruel to each other than we are (except for our indirect efforts like removal of habitat etc)

Which seems far worse to me
than catching them to kill them.
Murderers seem better than torturers.

it is an odd one
but lets face it, they weren't doing it in order to consume it afterwards
