hey hey, so ur not vegetarian hehehe.
think about it, if u really feel that bad about harming animals, u should stop living in the city cz watever u do to survive here will encourage pollution and erode animal habitats. I suppose u drive, use paper, electricity, eat lots of animals and kill bloodsucking bugs. Might as well just stop living or go live in the forest and survive solely on plants to avoid harming INNOCENT ANIMALS because U CAN'T STAND THE GUILT, but then again, that's alot easier said than done.
I dont know u and i don't wana 'judge a book by its cover', that's why im asking u, to see if ur a big hypocrite that only knows how to talk alot but can't really take action mer.. cz i know there is a possibility that u may not be 1..=)
sorry for bursting ur bubble and pissing u off, shudv just ended at "so ur not vegetarian eh?"^_^
*yeah ok im too free and it's just too tempting*
Congratz~ with your theory, a new monk has been born... to ease your satisfaction, ya, you bursted my bubble but so? What are your trying to proof here? Let me ask you something simple, do you think that monk won't be stepping an ant accidentally in his life? If the monk really is/was, perhaps the monk know how to fly. What you are talking is totally impossible to do! What do you expect me to be? A monk? Well, I think you are thinking too much. Like what cantonese said "twisting around the bull's horn". Let me rewind back to the original question. This time, I'm going to draw a clearer picture for you to see.
Question : While you are driving and suddenly, there is an animal (dog, cat or whatever...) jump out of no where. What are you going to do? Avoid it? If you avoid, you are going to knock on a motorcyclist. So what is your decision? To knock down the animal or the motorcyclist?
My answer : The animal has 10% of surviving. 90% is death. Whereas the motorcyclist has 50% of surviving and 50% is death. I choosed to knock the motorcyclist because he has higher chance of surviving. Simple!
Now, what will you choose? Perhaps you are choosing to end the animal's life since you are caring and loving ppl. Why don't twist around and think that the animal belongs to any family. It is as important as human life because it is already part of the family. Don't you think the family will be sad? It is also easy for you to say rather than do it. Since there is no rules stated that knocking down an animal will need to go to jail. You will just pass without worrying any trouble comes to you. Perhaps, no matter how much I emphasize, you will still not understand. Perhaps you haven't had an animal as a family member. Perhaps you are a sadist that animal's life is consider worthless. Perhaps you can continue to protect human since you already mentioned how "good" human is.
Maybe I shouldn't ask you so much questions. Maybe you will start twisting again
. But whatever answer you choose, save it to yourself. I would just pass. I will shut up and watch. Perhaps to ease your satisfaction, you will hope to see I kill a person because of avoiding animal and end up in jail.
P/S : Don't you think whenever a person is ready to drive/ride a vehicle, he/she should be prepare for accident (either he/she knock ppl or ppl knoch he/she)? Don't you think it is better not to drive/ride? Because it is safer and reduce accident. It is even better if all the ppl don't drive! Nobody will get hurts and you no need to worry about losing your precious ppl. Oh ya, I already started to be like you twisting around with illogically definition
Btw, did you notice that I had been reiterating my point over and over again? But this time is much more clearer thanks to you

My gf and I had a Jack Russel dog. If you don't know how it looks like, it's the dog that starred in the TV sitcom Frasier. It was a damn smart dog.
It was only a few weeks old. We came back from Tesco and the poor dog was in its cage the whole day. So we decided to let it run free with the supervision of my gf whilst she went to throw the garbage. I was in the kitchen unpacking the stuff we bought. Seconds before the carnage happened, i had chill-spine and quickly went out and true enough, both my gf and I saw a White Honda Civic rammed through our beloved dog. My gf was so distraught and she went panicky.
I had to wrap the poor dog and bury it later at night. The whole head was crushed and i almost vomitted while cleaning it before wrapping it nicely for burial. I still have visions of that accident and it was really gruesome.
Sorry to hear that. I can understand your feeling since I saw almost the same scene before.

Something offtopic, but still related to the unfortunate fate of a poor animal.
It happened 4 years ago. My mom fetched me to the tuition centre coz' there was a heavy downpour. On the way, i saw a puppy in a monsoon drain and the water level haven't reach him. The puppy is still sitting on the elevated part of the drain.
Eh hard to describe how was it.
Don't ask me why and how the dog end up in the drain...I just saw it.
I asked my mom to stop the car but she said the traffic is heavy and its raining. She just drove pass and i feel guilt stricken.
Right after the class, we drove pass the road again and saw that the drain is already flooded.
That feeling is even worse than running over a dog/cat. Knowing that you could do something to save that animal but you didn't take any actions.
Running over an animal ends its live instantly without much suffering but i can't imagine a puppy being smothered and drown...
Everytime i drove pass that road again reminds me of that incident.
It is the sadest thing when you can only see with your helpless hands. I feel the same too
