Watching the video, it seems pretty fortunate that the camel didn't break his leg, considering how it's trapped in that fence.

Liberal fascism.

[Frantzie]

It is a shame Michael Vick was not there to murder a few dogs. The Obama/NFL sure loves him now. These people are so evil. Poor camel.

[AnglePark]

Hey, it’s OK because it’s artistic comedy! /s

Freakin’ idiots.

Do we know that the camel’s leg is not broken. You can hear them at the end of the video saying “I think it’s broken”.

[equaviator]

Torture? That’s a stretch. Negligence bordering on mistreatment maybe but not “torture”.

[stars & stripes forever]

Where is the Humane Society in all this?

[ZULU]

They should have had a Bactrian Camel. They handle the snow and cold very well.

Just the same, a stupid stunt.

I like camel a lot more than Arabs or Muslims.

[Mangia E Statti Zitto]

What morons! It reminds me of that WKRP in Cincinnati show where the news guy threw turkey out of helicopter, unaware that they couldn’t fly. It was funny on TV; not so funny when it involves real animals.

"Do we know that the camel’s leg is not broken. You can hear them at the end of the video saying “I think it’s broken”."

I did not hear that, but the audio out of my mobile device isn't that clear. No, I don't know for a certainty that the camel didn't break his leg. I just presumed that because it wasn't mentioned in the "update". The leg could be broke, I just don't know.

(sigh!)

I hope that someone sends this video clip to Drudge and to Rush Limbaugh, to highlight the abuse of animals by the liberals POS socialists. If conservatives ever did anything like this, there would be lawsuits & criminal charges being filed immediately by the libturds, howling with feigned outrage over the mistreatment & abuse of animals.

[Allegra]

These things frequently seem to happen when the liberals try to be cute.

[antiRepublicrat]

Daily Show correspondent John Oliver

Correspondent? He's an actor in a comedy show.

[GraceG]

No response from PETA yet...... still waiting....

[Mr. K]

“...They’re hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement- OMG One just crashed through a windshield!!”

I never laughed so hard in all my life

[BigEdLB]

Remember everyone, camels spit... Were there any SEIU uniongoons close... i.e. within range... LOL

[Melpomene]

Oh the humanity!

[Bigh4u2]

There’s 3 parts to the video.

In part 3 they finally got the camel up and his leg was fine.

Now they just got to give something to the ‘cameraman’ for his achne!
