perfidy

Fans of the late conservationist, wildlife expert and tv personality Steve Irwin have, it seems, been visiting their grief and anger on innocent stingrays. Ten or more stingrays have been found dead and mutilated on the beaches of Australia. Another two have had their tails removed. Naturally, this is exactly what Steve would have wanted. Now, I am normally reasonably callous when it comes to the death of innocent and helpless critters. Often, they are tasty. Other animals find them tasty. That's life. But for some fuckwit to torture and kill an animal just because one of its brethren accidently killed his favorite tv star is totally beyond the pale. Get a grip, losers. Instead of hunting down a graceful, beautiful and largely harmless creature, find a safer outlet for your destuctive urges. Like, maybe, this.
