Today’s question of the day is SO volatile, I won’t even broach it. The question was, “Michael Vick has been charged with illegal dogfighting. (Which, honestly, is NOT what he was charged with. He was charged with several counts of cruelty to animals and housing an illegal establishment.) If he’s convicted, what do you think is an appropriate punishment?”
I’m a fan of slow, tortorous death. Like, to the pain kind of death. I think he should have to suffer an hour of excruciating pain for each animal that died at his hands. And then, because I’m ironic that way, I think they should let falcons peck his eyes.
Then they should give him cookies. And once he’s eaten the cookies, begin again. Because I think that’s how hell operates.

Or should we let him LOOK at the cookies, even TASTE the cookies and then require him to spit them out?
But only if he’s proven guilty, of course.
whatever they do to the animals should be done to them.
for example, right now, I am petting my cat’s belly and feeding her treats. she should next therefore pat MY belly and feed ME treats.
etc.
Begin.
Michelle - it totally goes without saying that he must be proven guilty before we start denying him cookies.
Caroline - when you figure out how to teach that trick to your cat, please come over and share your knowledge with my menagerie.
