LOL...you act as though you have no other way to defend your stuff than to poison these animals. You’re human. You know better. The raccoons do not. That’s a perk of being at the top of the food chain. We recognize suffering (well, some of us do) and we avoid inflicting it on other living creatures...whether they realize it, appreciate it, reciprocate it, or not. We recognize sufferun and avoid inflicting it.
I am human?How do you know that? You have no idea my friend whether I am human or not.Rather presumptuous of you.I also shoot elephants who raid the gardens of humans. I am not an elephant either.
You should know better.
Idiot compassion exists, because the view of compassion is geerally very narrow. You have a very narrow idea of what compassionate activity is IMHO. Look no further than PETA to understand.
