CEO of Centerplate caught kicking a puppy in the elevator

lol, community service. That won't happen. The only way there'd be justice would be if the offending individual had been a grunt within the company. Worse comes to worse he gets a multimillion dollar golden parachute.
 
That is horrible. Sadly thousands of people around the world are starving or getting blown to bits every day and no one seems to care.

Vick and/or his cohorts executed multiple dogs that didn't support his illegal gambling ring because they wouldn't injure other dogs well enough for his liking. This guy is an asshole too, but not all assholes are identical or should be punished identically.

Looks like the dog is cowering by lying down in the elevator. The asshole probably hurt the dog before going into the elevator or had done it in the past.

Hopefully, more media attention is created and he's fired.

Came just to post this as well. Now day that the first time with the way that dog was behaving. The dog went I not full submission and cowering the second he got in there. I don't for a second buy this is "out of character".
 
His dog his choice. Although in this case not quite applicable as it was apparently his friend's dog. The only person who should take issue is the friend who could sue him for potentially damaging his property.

Purposely causing undue pain, suffering and fear to a living sentient being, a-ok in your book. Taking a morning after pill to flush some cells out of a woman's body, pure fucking evil on par with murder. 😕

He really is a twisted fuck isn't he?
 
I was going to give the guy the benefit of the doubt at first. Dealing with hyperactive 1 year puppies can be difficult and some discipline can be warranted (not kicking obviously), but what he does is worse than I thought. The dog was well behaved and submissive on video, laying down in a corner. This is behavour that should be rewarded with a pat on the head and a "good dog", not kicked and strangled.

I am a cynic here too. I suspect he will give some money to other people who will do the community service for him, if he even does that.

I guess its true, CEO is the profession that is mostly likely to be a pschopath than any other.

Yeah, I was kinda expecting it to be a scenario where you had aggressive (or aggressively friendly) dog invading his space and he was just "kicking" the dog trying to keep him away and his leg unhumped. What this guy did was unprovoked and gratuitous.

The argument is that the cells are not a person.

A dog is clearly not a person right? They aren't even a potential person.

I'm going to take a SWAG and presume this was a parody of the pro-choice position.

Hit!

Two sentences and you got it wrong. I said living sentient being vs. clump of cells. Try to keep up.

Except that isn't the argument used by pro-choicers. It is pretty consistently a fetus is not a person. Since a dog is also very clearly not a person...

How does someone abusing their dog affect you?

Isn't that the argument liberals like to use. If something doesn't directly affect you shut your God damn mouth and let people do what they want.

Actually, that's a libertarian argument. Try again.

Bingo. The idea that progressives don't care what you do so long as it doesn't affect someone else is ridiculous. See their fixation on subjects like "income inequality" or "corporate personhood" for prime examples of that.

I think you confuse me mocking supposed ideals, that liberals claim to hold, which supports abusing animals with me actually supporting abusing animals.

Of course since it is your ideals being mocked I guess it should be obvious why you are "confused".
