Animal Gladiators

This article is not just about roosters, who are merely used here as an example of the various animals that are used for "fights" by humans to entertain themselves, for those who find animal gladiators ripping at each other entertaining, and for profit.  Please read this alarming story. It's an example of how little regard we have for life in this planet, no matter what their form is. But hell, they kidnap kids and sell them to prostitution and we kill each other for no reason, so why wouldn't they do it to animals... NOOOT!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are words spoken by Al Carter, director of animal operations at Moore County animal control in Eagle Springs, North Carolina.
He’s talking about 74 roosters “rescued” from a cockfighting bust. In lieu of contacting sanctuaries or rescue agencies to try and save even a couple of these roosters, animal control officers spent six hours shooting every bird in the head. A bullet to the head may be a quick death if done properly, though I can’t see how that’s possible with a frightened, squirming chicken. But imagine if these were 74 dogs from a puppy mill - would your response to a bullet to the brain be a little different? Would you be a little offended or appalled if an animal control director said that all puppy mill dogs are good for is a bullet to the head?
