I say they feed HIM to the gator.

Feed the pedophile to the gator, send the boy to school.

[Gangerolf]

That's like making a pedophile work at a school

if he really is a sicko, then yes. but if we go with the curious little boy scenario then it may make wonders

u said that already!

Listen now folks, if you're going to sentence him to a prison, you might as well execute him -- his life is ruined after the sentence and he won't enjoy his life anyway -- suffering from eternal guilt and bitterness.

Will commit suicide or start using drugs during the first 6 months, I'd say. Sending him into prison would be pure hypocricy, considering the living conditions in US prisons.

I agree... Ruin a boy's life... Over a ****ing cat!!!????

he's not "sick" as some here have suggested. he's just a curious boy, possibly with a bad upbringing. who here can honsetly say they've never ripped the wings off a fly, peed on an anthill or similar?

I would agree with this statement, but the article said he beat up the cat before feeding it. I probably would have chucked mice, rabbits and stuff to gator myself if I was little kid in florida to see the gator "hunt" something. But beating up a cat was kinda unnecessary.

He also tried to lie so I dont buy into the whole "he felt guilty and tried to undo it as soon as he threw in the cat".


He needs severe punishment, but preferrably in a way that doesnt ruin his life. over a ****ing cat people!

Yes, some people do need a sense of proportion here. This isn't murder because it is a cat. He should get some community service and counseling. No more.

Where is this "an innocent curious boy" arguement coming from? I mean, its pretty obvious what happens when you feed a cat to an alligator....IT DIES!!!

I know Americans are stupid, but even this is a strech

One third of Americans have no access to healthcare. And you're lecturing me about empathy?

Yeah I know, they are always here at the hospital being treated at everyone else's expense. What 1/3 of Americans don't have isn't access to healthcare, it's an insurance bill to pay every month.

I say we feed congresspeople to gators instead. Much more expendable, and not anywhere near as cute.

Damn! Can't find that bloody quote by Octave Mirebau (Or was it someone else?). Some of you people would really benefit from it... Even better, read a story or a novel by him. Frankly, I'm still looking for a full translation to read... What it says, far more eloquently than I am able, is that as long as people are cruel, murderous and unfeeling to animals they will be the same to other humans. Just as ertain human beings were seen inferior and therefore "fair game" (a good chunk of my relatives some two and three generations back were exterminated that way), people now say "it's just a cat".

If any distinction should be made, it is that the kid has the power of reason that should enable him to see what is right and what is wrong. Cats and other animals do not have this power, yet somehow they are far, far less prone to cause suffering and death just for the bloody sake of it.

You sir don't know your cats. There is nothing many cats enjoy more than capturing a small animal and slowly tearing apart. Not to eat, just for the entertainment.

They tried to do this in the 19th century, but the alligators just kept throwing them back.

I'll be the first to admit...

I'm sort of curious as to what a gator eating a cat looks like, too.

[Sikander]

I agree with those who think he should get some community service / fine / counseling. I was as violent as many when I was this kids age, with access to weapons and explosives and all sorts of animals. I hunted and fished and killed vermin and varmints, but I never for a second ever thought of killing someone's pet. That is really profoundly mean-spirited.

But 5 years is longer than some pedophiles get.


I will join the greek chorus. It's a ****ing cat!
