Why is it acceptable to show HUMANS being killed and mutilated and stabbed and shot at in movies, but not animals? I don't get this. Watch a guy get shot in the head, everyone laughs. Watch a KITTEN get shot in the head, and everyone says "OMG WTF I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY JUST DID THAT." And of course the movie studio would be shut down.

So what is this saying? That we value a dog's life more than a human being's?

Doesn't make much sense to me.

Depends on who you ask, really.

That should not be debatable to anyone. If you value a cat more than a human being you need your head examined.

So an animal with no feelings or signficant purpose is more important than an evolved being WITH feelings who was borne of a loving mother and who had family and friends that will mourn over their loss?

Don't know much about cats,eh? Humans are a dime a dozen, creators of their own misery. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.

They wouldn't get shut down as long as they weren't really killing the kitten or abusing it in some way...

I don't think I'd mind seeing more animal gore.

Because usually the good guy is killing the bad guy, and that makes it OK.

Who said either one was more important? I didn't.

Yah. Let's see. Cat's purpose in life, survive to reproduce to continue on the species.
Humans' purpose in life hm...survive to reproduce to continue on the species.
I also don't know how you're claiming cats to have no feelings (go talk to a cat owner).

A cat does not have feelings. They do not get sad, feel the desire for revenge, or weep. They do not mourn and do not get angry.

I own a cat.
