The guy sure isn't a criminal and in my judgement, didn't do a damn thing wrong.
I dont have any issue trapping and killing a raccoon, but if you honestly see nothing wrong with burning any animal alive, other than to directly save a human life, then you probably should consider professional help.

Read the article. This animal was doused in gasoline and set on fire a neighbor noticed called the cops and when the cops came lord knows how much time later shot the animal to put it out of its misery...
This was NOT a quick death, it was a very cruel one. I dont believe the mans intentions were to be cruel, but it clearly was.
