TURNABOUT FAIR PLAY? (via Brad S):

Man Accused Of Eating His Dog Alive (News 12)

"Look at that ear. Do you see that? I mean, it is chewed to smithereens," says Shelby County Texas District Attorney Linda Kay Russell. Russell is reacting to graphic pictures showing a pit bull puppy who was eaten alive by his owner.

Now, Russell is preparing to prosecute the strangest animal cruelty case she has ever handled.

"This is actually called torture to an animal, and that is why we are doing it," says Russell.

Forty-nine year old Reggie Paul Fountain stands accused of eating his dog alive.

What if he had owned a Great Dane instead? Or a Komondor?

Not an opportunity for humor, in my opinion. Dogs are affectionate, trusting, intelligent, and sensitive. This crime represents cruelty beyond measure. The suffering of the puppy must have been unbelievable.

Humor is always innapropriate in your view then.
