You are a sensationally earnest bore. I do love the very South African use of the phrase 'these people' usually employed, in my experience, because the phrase you really want to use is no longer acceptable.

And, to the others, how is a 'posed picture' cruel? Either people eat animals or they don't. Posing a picture to illustrate it doesn't constitute cruelty.

I've manually merged your two comments….

Another thing that bothers me is the heading just above it regarding the 'flats mense'.

That heading insinuates that these people don’t care about pets and are a danger to the safety of our pets. It is also derogatory to the ‘flats mense’.

[Blabla edit: comments merged]

Robert (who comments below you) recently wrote an article totally unrelated to this, dealing with advert placement. To illustrate his point he uses a newspaper page which shows how profit-focused newspapers are, without any sensitivity to the issues around the adverts.

Have a look at the picture and the explanatory paragraph just above it on Roberts' post here: http://gatorurl.com/2fr5iv

Think the SPCA should investigate cruelty charges just for that posed picture, never mind following up on whether there is even any truth in the story!
