The shameless lack of respect for other living things here is just insane. Any excuse to "go shootin'" or get to stroke one's ego or feel self-important by killing/torturing something smaller and more defenseless than onesself I guess. Very noble. Must make "y'all" feel very tough and very big. Why stop there though? Why not start kicking the neighborhood dogs and pulling the wings off of butterflies while you're at it? Go skin a few cats alive for amusement. Maybe tie some bricks around some kittens and drop 'em off of bridges. Good fun, right? Maybe you can find some puppies to rip apart with your bare hands. I'm sure that'll appeal to the macho/tough-guy aspect of some on here.
That's about the level of maturity and respect for other living things I'm seeing in this thread. Before accusing ME of being insensitive, look in the mirror.

Lighten up, Francis.
I just can't get real excited about shooting a stray cat that's causing problems. People who care for their pets don't let them run wild and cause problems with others' pets or property. Call the pound and the cat would probably be euthanized anyway. What difference does it make whether YOU shoot it or the dog catcher gasses it? It's just as dead and doesn't suffer much, if at all.
