Another Jeffrey Dahmer in the Making Breaks into Zoo

[Dan in Pasadena]

HardDrive, This kid was killing for "entertainment", nothing else. What kid has that sadistic drive and one that is strong enough to act on it at that young age? MONSTER

[Embraer]

This kid is sick...but it helps to remind me of one of my neighbors my freshman year of college.

I lived in the "International" housing at college (due to construction in the regular dorms, they moved me into an Asian grad student neighborhood)

Anyway, one of my neighbors (an old Chinese man who was the grandfather of a student) would go outside everytime after it rained to gently remove earthworms off of the sidewalk, so people wouldn't step on them. pretty darn cool.

In my youth, I certainly remember doing mischievous things that I knew were wrong but I still did them, I grew out of that. This kid doesn't seem to have the capacity to know the difference between right and wrong.

Yes, but then the taxpayers would be on the hook for some multimillion dollar wrongful death lawsuit. Or at least that's what would happen in America.

I have heard many here claim they would smash a snake in a hearbeat. Some have probably thrown a live mouse into a pet snakes cage. Many have probably put a live minnow or worm on a hook, then fed it a fish that they clubbed in the head after catching. While this story is bizarre in that a kid that young figured out how to get into the zoo and killed expensive/rare reptiles, I don't know if it warrants throwing the kid into the croc as some seem to think would be a fair punishment.

I sure hope all of you guys who think killing an animal is a criminal offense, feel just as strongly about aborting babies.

[Noah930]

Fair point, Tim. After all, the kid's just a kid. Who knows what he will truly be like as an adult.

But at the same time, it would be a terrible shame (for both the kid, and whomever his victims wind up being down the road) if something like this just gets swept under the rug by his parents, and they take no precautions during his upbringing.

And Where TF are his parents that he can go gallivanting around unsupervised for half an hour at the zoo and they're not around?!

This is what he could become...

I originally saw this in a book called "Wierd Ohio"

Feed the kid and his parents to the crocodile...

[slakjaw]

?
He killed lizards.. Whats the big deal with that?

[slakjaw]

I dont think that smashing a lizards head with a rock tells us anything about who he will become.

[TheMentat]

I'm gonna plug a TV series that deals with this sort of thing in a clever way...

Dexter

Its a Showtime series, and its great!

It's about context.

A 7 year old breaks into a zoo and kills a bunch of animals and you don't see that there is something wrong with him? Get your head examined.
