I wouldn't call not being free grounds for calling life pointless.

1) How do you know they're treated inhumanely? Do you look behidn the scenes? Psychic?

2) No, I'm not. And most people that work at places like that aren't corrupt, just doing their jobs. Can you blame a guy for trying to make a dollar when some a*shole on top's raking in all the dough and refuses to pay him more, while forcing him to work at impossible speed?

You can usually tell based on how an animal acts on whether or not they're happy with where they're living. Basic psychology, not being psychic.
I'm not saying the people who need money are corrupt, all I mean is MOST people don't realize the big people in the HSUS are causing the corruption itself, which I didn't actually debate. Not the guy collecting the donations to get his 10.00 an hour.

Anyway, I'm not up for an argument. Two different views, two different people.

It depends on the zoo, for me. When I said I'm against zoos, I'm against cramming an animal into a small, unnatural area, like a cage or something. But generally, I don't jump up and down to go visit a zoo.

You'd be surprised how corrupt some things are, Humane Society of the US and PETA being two of the worst. Those are pets, but still good examples. :P

That's like saying

Yes, you can, because it's dishonest money which ultimately doesn't belong to him/her.

@ Doc: So if you were in that situation, had no where else to turn, were dirt poor and had to feed your family, you'd turn down the money?

Doc 42: Which was a generalization, correcting myself afterward. It came off unclear, therefore, I verified. Notice how I said a zoo and being crammed in a house can be different, therefore supporting the fact that I generalized zoos.

Anyway..
How's everybody's day been going then?

KP: Darn you! Wait a sec... me has better idea! Use fast little racing carts with mounted flamethrowers, sniper rifles and M60s along with a small two-wheeled trailer filled with supplies and start a convoy out of that! Massive destruction of the zombie horde!

It's been swell. About 3/4's of the way through my essay, at least...

Of course I would, I'd steal as much as I could. I wouldn't pretend it's ok though. I wouldn't justify it. In the end of the day, the money isn't mine to take. If I got caught I'd accept my fate as my just rewards. If your going to steal and be dishonest at least recognise that it's wrong. I have nothing but contempt for people who believe its ok to do wrong just because they feel wronged themselves.


And UR: Why the sniper rifles?

@ Doc: Why NOT the sniper rifles is the better question!

it's a waste of ammo shooting zombies from a distance where you'll most likely miss. especially if the shooter is a remote control vehicle that would be incapable of adjusting to the recoil, or confirming 100% whether a target was a zombie or not.

better solution: shopping carts with V6 engines, off road tires and built in mortars/grenade launchers. shell the zombies to death. doesn't work? shotguns poking out the front, and saws built into the sides. now THAT. is a Death Cart.

Remaking JAWS. Are they NUTS?! That's one of the classics. They already ruined Friday the 13th and butchered A Nightmare on Elm Street. How many more movies are they planning to ruin?

That's just wrong. D: I don't generally like remakes, but it's worse if it's a classic.

I picked up my little sis and turned to show mom her chocolate 'stache.

Dad poked me in the ribs. I jumped.

And I dropped my little sister on her as*.

XDDD
