You're going to give me that bollocks about animals never started a war, lied to me, broke my sweet little heart..
Animals never created a masterpiece, or composed a sonnet.
Do you like animals that kill other animals?
I wasn't going to say any of the above.
Animals kill other animals as it is their nature and they do not possess the cognitive thought to commit or not commit an act that could be deemed wrong.
Humans on the other hand are capable of choosing to do things or not despite what our nature tells us.
If a dog sees a dog it fancies it runs over and slams itself into them. If I see a girl I fancy I might want to run over and shag her there and then but my human mind knows this is wrong so instead I do nothing.
The guy who stamped on the dog had a choice, he chose to kill the dog.
It all comes down to choice. I choose to not eat flesh of any kind but I do not begrudge other animals eating flesh as they have no choice, they are a slave to their nature. Thankfully, we are not.
