Disgusting. I hope all of those animals (yes including the 15yr old girl) are put in a cage where they belong for quite a while. There is just NO excust for that type of behaviour.

I remember years ago reading a seminal paper on neuroscience from 1959 entitled 'What the frog's eye tells the frogs' brain,' by MIT engineering prof Jerome Lettvin, who died last year at 91
http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/Books/WhatT...FrogsBrain.pdf

The frog sees basically tiny moving objects (e.g. flying bugs) and everything else. According to the paper, a frog could be surrounded by food and starve to death, because if the food does not move, the frog would never see it.

Similarly now I think I could write a paper 'What the liberal's eye tells the liberal's brain.' To a lib a beat-down is just that--a beat-down. The lib can't distinquish between a gang attack on an individual and an act of self-defense. It's all just one big mish-mosh to the lib. The liberal eye/brain also seems to always see racism, whether it's there or not.

that is a fascinating and unfortunately very accurate analogy.

+1.

Interesting analogy, but you applied it to the wrong political ideology.

Interesting to note that there have been studies to suggest that conservatives have a larger fear center in their brain.

hmmmm....
