This kind of shit makes me want to be a vigilante for animal justice. It’s heartbreaking to think about any animal being tortured and then left to suffer (for hours!). The topper is that not only is that being done by a human, it’s being done by a human who other humans are expected to trust. Then they wonder why we’re not all dewy-eyed and trusting.
Also, I’m not buying the veteran angle; if you suffer so badly from battle scars that you derive pleasure from torturing helpless things, then you should not be allowed in any position of access to such things.
