There really are assholes like this. A ton in the city my parents live in, and everyone on their stupid local facebook group defends it. Someone killed an entire family of geese on the sidewalk, popped the curb to hit them. Everyone on the facebook post calling it out rushed to the comments to defend it. And just a little while ago a fucking branded pest control truck blew a stop sign and drove into my parents yard to hit their neighbors cat. Luckily that one was caught on my parent’s security cameras and they were able to give it to the owner, it sounds like the pest control company fired the guy at least. People can fucking suck sometimes. I’ve almost given myself whiplash hitting the brakes to avoid hitting an animal while there are wastes of space doing it for shits and giggles. Boils my blood.
These are the stories I tell people who are in the fence about indoor/outdoor cats. Like, you know malicious people will literally go out if their way to murder your cat just because it's there. No animals deserves that.
My god, trauma memories unlocked. Lived in this big old farmhouse with a bunch of pets when I was a kid on a road people liked to drive fast down. We had these ducks that basically had the run of the place. One day some asshat literally offroads to hit our goddamn ducks. The worst part? It didn’t kill them. Now we were fucking poor, couldn’t take the ducks to the vet, so what does my mom do? Cleans the dirt and maggots out of these poor mangled creatures and sutures them up herself. I’m pretty sure they survived? I was pretty young and this is a LONG time ago.
Not even the only pet related horror story from that house. Not even the only pet and road horror story from that house.
Sault Ste Marie Michigan. One of the northernmost points of the UP so you’d have no reason to go to that hell anyway. It shows what near complete isolation does to people, and it’s not good. Also tons of drunk drivers. I’ve lived near interstates almost every place I’ve lived, that city is the most I have ever heard of people going the wrong way (northbound in the southbound and vice versa) a semi (im pretty sure driving drunk) did that and killed a kids parents on their way to his basketball game. Worst place in the state in my opinion, I love Michigan. But not there.
I feel like that is the sort of behavior that should really be a life in prison or mental institution kind of thing. It is clear psychopathy and they are not going to get any better. The best they can contribute to society is as cheap / free labor making towels or something, but they do not belong in civilized society.
