Not for the Squimish. You've been warned.

ok, this doesn't get much weirder. A California man has been accused of BITING out one of his 4-year old sons eyes and F-ing up the other while supposidly on PCP.

At that point you might as well go for symmetry and finish the job.

Well... that got me all nice and pissed off.

I could just rant about it, but it means nothing. The kid lost a f*cking eye and his sibling just got his legs axed.

And everybody bitches about Michael Jackson dangling his son over a balcony, which was a dumb thing to do, of course. But at least he wasn't trying to drop the baby. Not comparable at all.

I never been more ashamed to be a human before in my entire life. F*ck this guy; he deserves whatever they give him.

That should be the tagline of this section, considering how much it, and its variations, is thrown around.

And here I was wondering if there were pictures, seeing as how the title of the thread was implying something gruesome within its contents.

But yeah...people be crazy. It happens.

Why?

When this sort of thing happens with humans, it's horrifying and punishable. When this sort of thing happens among mantises, chimpanzees, or countless other species, it's just Tuesday.

Right, as if anybody would have the balls and the intelligence of a Uwe Boll movie reel to photograph this crap.

Then again, it would probably be a hit on YouTube...

So, when was the last time you read about someone biting the eyes out of a chimp, or someone (who's not Ozzy friggin' Osbourne) bite the head off a bat? Sorry, Ciph, but, I can't feel sympathy for every creature in existence... I'm only human.

And you're right... it is Tuesday.

No, the guy axed his own legs. I think he might be insane.

I didn't say I wanted to see it. I just wanted to know in case I had to censor it or remove it or something.

Yeah, I understand. Just another anger-driven reply. I never met this guy and I already hate his guts.

You couldn't think of a more recent incident? That happened like 7 years ago.

I meant many species of animals think nothing of killing each other. Chimpanzees brutalize and kill each other all the time over nothing. Plenty of bugs eat their own young. Dolphins kill baby manitees just because they feel like it.

But as humans, when someone pulls this sh*t we're all like, "Woah, slow down the crazy train," and they get arrested. We might make a few insensitive jokes too, because hey, our brains are developed enough to comprehend it.

All this is to say that I'm simply sick of the vast hyperbole that is "I'm ashamed to be a member of the human race," that constitutes ever single response to every shocking article ever.

I'm a vegetarian because I disagree with the treatment of animals on large farms. So I'll see your moral high ground and raise you one.

You guys seem to forget that not every person on the planet is as f*cked in the skull as this guy is.

Which is why at certain aspects of existence, we, as humans, gain the superiority advantage. It's just stupid stuff like this that messes it all up.

Well, I fold, because I'm having tacos for dinner. There's no way I'm getting into that one.
