Anyone wanna try to change my view?
No because you are probably small minded. We had 4 teens killed when the driver of their car swerved to avoid a squirrel, lost control and hit an oak tree. I believe if you are so traumatized by animals getting killed by motor vehicles you should seriously seek professional help. I live in a National Park and there are animals run over every day. The police don't even take reports anymore. There are about 475 deer killed in my 11 Sq. mile town annually. Then the "Bambi-lovers" go completely off the reservation when the Park Service culls 3-500 of them at a time.
The problem is....too many animals & humans occupying the same space........then again maybe all of these animals are simply committing suicide.....sheesh...

I have never heard of anyone deliberately running over a squirrel or other small animal.
The whole reason I posted is because I watched someone launch a poor crow 75+ feet in the air today on the freeway. There was a car behind them, but no car in the lane next to them. They didn't react at all, makes me really believe they thought "LOL KILLING ANIMALS IS FUNNY IM GONNA SEE HOW FAR I CAN LAUNCH THIS BIRD"
You are completely nuts...........

There are skid marks before the snake.

It is against the law here to intentionally hit an animal, but common sense should kick in occasionally and one should not jeopardize human lives in trying to avoid an animal in the roadway.
To be fair not a single one of the cars involved in the accident was following at an even remotely safe distance then. If they were at a safe distance, they could have stopped in time regardless of how fast the first person stop.
^ To be fair,^ This happened on a 4 lane road with a center turning lane, 5 lanes total. The woman who avoided the goose swerved to miss the bird and hit the car beside her which went into oncoming traffic striking another vehicle causing it to over turn, sending 3 people to the local hospital. Following too close had nothing to do with the accident. None of the vehicles were hit from behind. If the woman had been aware of the other vehicles around her and had stayed in her lane and sacrificed the goose, then 3 people wouldn't have been sent to the hospital.

Yep...same here. Pretty simple, common sense answer, based on logic. No need for anybody to get all worked up.

I found a small red eared slider standing in the middle of the road on time. I drove him to the nearest creek and set him free.
People that deliberately harm,hurt,abuse,or kill animals should die a million slow painful deaths.
We should absolutely take care of animals and all living beings for that matter, but lets not forget the HUMAN lives that we snuff out here in America every day though abortion. Nobody likes to talk about that.
I haven't snuffed out any one for 6 months. WE?
