Kitten kills game, guy kills kitten.

Probably was waiting for his B.haidate to drop. If only people passed faster...

What kind of assholes leaves their cords on the floor where a pet could get to them anyway. Messy people :<

He should be punished for the crime he committed, which is what he's been charged with. Saying he should be more severely punished because you believe this to be an indication of violent temperament is dumb, and saying things like "his next victim will probably be a human" is textbook slippery slope.

He's already established precedence he'd take a life for a trivial matter. How is that a slippery slope?

This is pretty bullshit. The psychological problems are painfully apparent when you're murdering animals in a fit of rage. There is absolutely no reason he shouldn't be placed in anger management/therapy/etc for this, because people with violent tendencies tend to be violent. If he can't control his anger at a clueless creature over a completely trivial matter, yes he deserves much more than the standard punishment. You can't be dismissive of "slippery slope" arguments when they are backed up by mountains of hard data and just plain common sense.

I had a puppy chew through my NES Advantage cables. Luckily he only got through 1/2 the cable so the controller was still functional. But I never wanted to murder the dog. Poor kitteh, I hope someone throws this guy up against a wall.

[Fr34k]

If only the kitten had a gun.

What took you guys so long?

[Rockstaru]

He was just showing the pussy Pink Floyd's last big hit.

[Tonka]

Wow, what an asshole lol. Clearly must have been an Xbawks player.

Lol, I also assumed this.

[SubzeroDiabolos]

People tend to not see reasoning only because they don't give a fuck about cats.

The only thing a cat think about when he's chewing a cable is "om nom nom nom nom nom nom".

Not "hey, it looks like he's finally about to finish that level he's been trying for the last 3 hours, let's find a way to prevent it, you know, for the lulz"

Ima tell you something, when I play MW2 and my cat decides to jump on my shoulder to reach the window, it gets me killed 90% of the time. Do I get mad, yes. Do I get mad at my cat, no. All she wants is to look outside the god damn window.

inb4 cool story

Our cats did this once while doing a marathon of gauntlet 64 with little-to-no saves.

The crime he committed was throwing an animal against a wall at such a velocity that the animal died. So by that logic we should throw him against a wall at such a velocity that he dies?

It's like you didn't even read his post at all.

The N64 is the only console that my cat would regularly reset on me, even if I put it higher. Perfect size for a paw

I agree with OP, i mean look at that nigga.

[Shenrien]

;_; well my day just got depressing.

[TheShadyMan]

I once threw a cat across a room because I was hungover, and the fucker was in heat and wouldn't shut the fuck up so I could sleep. To be fair though, this was at my friend's house, and he lived in a shitty trailer park and there was a bunch of stray cats running around everywhere. Also, I totally shooed it away like nine times. It was warned.

I would respond to this but everyone already explained why this is a retarded statement.

Not only that but he was already on probation for B&E. Hmmm it isn't hard to see a pattern emerging about his behavior.

[Manako]

Even worse having a rabbit, apparently rockband microphones are the perfect diameter for nomming, or she really hates my singing. The only other wire she's chewed is my DS charger, she avoids larger cords but really can't help herself on the smaller ones.

Definetly needs anger-management counseling that is just disgusting.

What is he looking at?

Virginia's laws are pretty harsh, however if it's just misdemeanor animal cruelty, the max he could get is 180 days and a $2000 fine. If the ADA is smart he'll plead out the Disorderly since it's hard as hell to get that charge to stick and can range from 30 - 260 days in prison with a $3000 fine and they'll most likely drop the animal cruelty charge. Stuff like this can go bad quickly if they publicize this (too late lol) and PETA gets wind of it. Political pressure from PETA can cause the ADA to seek higher charges like Felony Animal Cruelty which carries a 5 year prison sentence with a $10,000 fine. He'll probably end up with the max on any charge since he's a violator. Such harsh behavior doesn't bode well with juries.
