Sometimes I am embarassed...........

to be from the South

Disgusting

What a bunch of morons… :(

TG

i agree tg, but these types of things happen all over the country… i don’t expect that any one region can claim innocence…

I know Isaac. It just seems that every stinkin’ time our region makes national news it is over something idiotic like this. I know there are extreme idiots EVERYWHERE!

I’m a Northerner and I don’t have any problems with you guys having cock fights (although I guess that they are illegal).

i know a few people that have participated in cock fighting… call me a hypocrite because i am a meat eater, but cock fighting, dog fighting, et al, are too brutal for me…

yes, very sad indeed… another for us georgians is the recent onslaught of meth labs that are popping up in the north hills…

Am I misreading this; the cops killed 300 chickens during their raid?? I thought they were interested in the welfare of the animals, but instead they zeroed in on the cash.

usually, these animals are so completely out of control, that i expect it’s best to euthanize them… since chicks, they’ve only known the outside of their cage to be an area of aggression or death… very sad stories, but a reasonable approach… for one, i certainly wouldn’t want one of these as a pet, especially if i had children… honestly, i’m not sure that i could come up with a better idea…

These are not your ordinary KFC approved chickens. They are fighting chickens that serve no other purpose but to kill another chicken or possibly another small animal. (or child I suppose) These morons breed 'em this way and have these fights so they can gamble on the outcome. Sorry human beings IMO…

TG

PS Yes Isaac. Meth labs are everywhere here too. An even SORRIER bunch of human beings…

the worst stories are those when children die as the result of horrible parents setting their home on fire while cooking meth on the stove…

i guess this is the modern 'shine steel…

Out west it’s pitbull fighting, everyday another pitbull puppy mill gets nailed for breeding and selling dogs to fighting rings. I don’t understand why someone finds pleasure in watching animals kill each other. It’s sick. What’s even worse is when some phallically challenged douchbag gets these dogs and can’t control it. It winds up mauling small children, and then they start whining about how they can’t believe there lovable family pet named “Mauler”,
who has spend the last two years chained in the back yard in a 10 foot circle of their own excrement, could do such a thing.

Unfortunately, it’s not the animals - it’s the people who purpetrate this on them.

And don’t get me started on the meth heads - at least once a week a meth lab explodes in Portland. They finally pulled the cold medicines off the shelf at drug stores to prevent meth production, but that just means they’re getting desparate…

I had to give up cock-fighting when I injured one of my testicles.

please post the ubiquitous drum roll and crash in the “n-track users music” forum…

That’s the bit I find a wee bit screwy too Ksdb, they killed these chickens for their own good?

“Do you want to be a gladiator, or shall we just kill you now?” At least the Roman gladiators had a choice.

A while back a guy was arrested for animal abuse. It seems that whenever he had his crack pipe lit, he gave his pet ferret a hit too.

So, he was arrested and jailed, and his pet ferret was put down.

Worse sentence for the victim than the criminal it seems.

Ali.

What a waste Ali. The ferret was no doubt the smarter of the two… They should have freed it and put down the owner/crackhead.

Seems this is a sport that has been around since the oldest profession (guitar players). Don’t understand the point myself, but a lot of people are into it.

I was thinking of starting a piss poor parent fighting ring. Take parents who start meth houses, feed em gunpowder to get em mad, then let them fight each other til death. Every day seeing the news of these bozo’s being arrested and the children being escorted out by social services is heart wrenching to me. :(

THAT is not a bad idea Yaz. Although I shudder at the barbarity of it… desparate times call for desparate measures. Some people should not be ALLOWED to breed…

TG

i dated a girl for a while who, when at hockey games, would sit and start yelling, “no, don’t fight!!” everytime a fight was about to happen… while i can certainly understand a desire to avoid unecessary violence, i believe there is a difference between “random/chaotic” and “controlled” violence… at least with humans in a known event such as any sporting event, the participants are aware of the possibility of an altercation or more…

sadly, these animals (cocks, dogs) have little control over these sorts of things… it’s fight or die… maybe we should lock these owners in a cage with their own raging pet…

Brilliant! That way we get rid of the tweakers, their kids get a sporting chance at a future. And we’ll have something (only slightly) more interesting for late night TV.

Tweakers shouldn’t breed!
