What's the most horrific thing you've seen?
What is going on?
Lightguy was walking home when he saw a fox eating a cat. As he watched, it threw up on the cat and then continued eating, having doused it in its own marinade.
Only this morning, Rachelswipe saw a tramp hock up a bright green loogy, only for a pigeon to hop over on its withered stumps and peck it up joyfully.
Are these the end times? What horrible stuff have you seen recently?

Bits all over the place
I was a UN Military Observer in Sierra Leone shortly after the turn of the century. Lots of grim stories from my time there (the malaria story is something for you all to look forward to). Anyway, we were heading down the the road from Koidu to Magburaka (north to central SL - check a map), we turned up shortly after a lorry had come to a halt on the side of the muddy and lumpy road - upside down. Prior to the crash there had clearly been thirty or so people sitting on the roof of the lorry - as all lorries moving around Africa seem to have. All the roof passengers had been comprehensivly dismantled as the lorry had obviously flipped quickly and then had come to a stop upside down slowing itself down by grinding these poor people into small parts. We drove straight on through a sea of giblets; there was nothing we could do to help anyone and it was quite usual at the time for the first locals on the scene to beat any survivors to death in the belief that they had obviously caused the event - so we did not want to be mistaken for survivors! I never quite understood that myself. Completely horrid.
Length? About 50 metres. Mostly red.
