One thing for sure, I don’t have weapons to defend myself against animals.

People. What you have to watch out for. Assholes like this.

I have difficulty understanding the callous nature of a human that would do such a thing. But I don’t have any difficulty expressing the pleasure I would have returning the favor if I were to catch them in the act.

Find the guys responsible, strip them naked, provide face protection, tie them to a post, and shoot them with paintball loaded with blue leather dye. Itching powder optional. Video record and post on Youtube.

Wow, someone needs to fund the perp and do the same to them. Anyone who would do this to an animal doesn’t deserve to be called human.

"It was deplorable," Smith said. "Her eye was swollen shut. The other one she can't see out of. Her head was hanging down. She was very depressed."

[afraidfortherepublic]

Disgraceful (not the recovery, the abuse.)

[debrawiest]

Poor thing! Goodness, I dislike people sometimes.

A horse of a different color? The punishment seems obvious.

[Popman]

I guess I could understand (not really) a kid shooting one paintball at an old horse just to see what happens...kids are stupid like that...

To shot 100 paintballs, is mentally sick...

Obviously, the horse was fearful and in pain...

Future mass murderer or serial killer...

when caught...Lock them up now...

Tie them naked to a post out in the wilderness. Shoot them many, many times with paintballs full of honey and peanut butter. Walk away and let the bears and coyotes have their way with them.

I REALLY hate people sometimes.

[Doogle]

....if they really want to, animal rescue people will make sure the perps are caught

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

This is one of those articles where I get really scared when I read it, because if I caught someone doing this I don’t know if I could control myself. Assault I believe has a max. of 7 years in prison, then there’s manslaughter, murder, either way it all comes down to self control doesn’t it but you get people like this who REALLY test the limit.

[Noumenon]

Sure - throw in fire ants for good measure.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Animals are the smartest things on earth. I’ve lost all faith in humanity!

[trisham]

Horrible. Some people are sub-human.

These acts of mindless cruelty by kids often bring to mind an incident here in the Seattle area around 10 years ago where a sweet natured little burro at a petting zoo in Bellevue (Posada) was bludgeoned to death one night by some local teenagers. They did it just for the hell of it. Just for the hell of it.
