I always found it interesting that we humans have become so desensitized to human-on-human violence, we now feel more pain when animals are wounded or killed than our fellow human beings......

[BullsWaterboy]

Utterly sick and fucking disgusting. Real troops avoid mine easily, children civilians and animals don't have the training to recognize a potential mine field. Don't get mad get even, find who put that mine there and give them hell. If there was a donation line i would donate. Fucking sick...
