Warning! Not For Sensitive Viewers
"Snapperfest" is a brutal festival held every summer in Ohio County, Indiana, where backwater, hillbilly proto-humans gather to cheer on fellow neanderthals, who torture turtles for their depraved amusement.The turtles are snatched from their natural wetland habitat, forced to endure being wrestled, as well as strangled ...some to death, even ripped out of their shells to the sound of exuberant applause from the crowd.

. . . you'll find that they already are.
I quickly pushed past the graphic photographs. I do not believe that men are evolving - some are but in a general sense this type of news article shows haw far we really have to go.
Why do men feel the need to prove their manhood against a small animal who does him no harm??? When the Intergalactic Visitors come I am sure they will know who to help and who to leave to the large animals.
I wonder how far some of the 'men' ( I use that term lightly) in this article would last with say a mountain lion - no guns just their bare hands - no weapons just like the animals.
Sometimes I feel ashamed to be a part of the human race - that's if it is human.
Much Peace...to all the animals that die needlessly for stupid inane sports...
