[mysterio]

Anyone who breaks a kitten's skull is a danger to society, 8 or 80. I have found other adults quick to forget what it was like to be 8. I remember it crystal clearly. This kid is a sociopath. Time for some long term counseling for him. I wonder if that will "bore" him?

A man of kindness to his beast is kind
Brutal actions reflect a brutal mind
Remember, He who made the brute
He who gave thee speech and reason formed him mute
He can't complain
but God's all seeing eye beholds thy cruelty
He hears his cry
He was destined to be thy servant and thy drudge
but know this : his Creator is thy judge.

I knew that one when I was 8.

Fine, he can be a sociopath, that is possible... but that doesn't mean that he doesn't deserve psychiatric care, or a fair trial.

Thank you for posting. I had never heard that poem before. That's worth remembering.

He was destined to be thy servant and thy drudge

I think this goes "not thy drudge" (google is cool). Originally about beasts of burden. Thank you and I have asked to yank my former silly remark (no harm meant, I don't deliberately hurt my cat, I just mean she's a spontaneous complainer like a lot of cats)
