100 sled dogs were killed in Whistler after the Winter Olympics.

Some people think these murderers should be killed, others life in prison.

What do you think about all this. And do you think people care more about dogs being killed then people??

As a Christain I disagree, and believe that humans were created to be dominant.

This Christian view originates from the Bible. What evidence do you have for the Bible's complete accuracy? Or simply to suggest the Bible's accuracy?
I don't understand how my post was centered around revenge

In retrospect, I don't know why I thought that either. :P Oops.
But still, I think that the "thing's original use is its only use" objection is valid.

I think life in prison without parole is fair justice for such a harsh act

Killing 100 dogs just because business was slow and they had nothing to do with them is inhuman, as was the method of killing them. There are about 100 ways of killing them that would have made this far more humane, but still stupid.

I am a huge dog lover and this is very sad news! I'll take them before they kill them

Why?
Killing 100 dogs just because business was slow and they had nothing to do with them is inhuman, as was the method of killing them. There are about 100 ways of killing them that would have made this far more humane, but still stupid.

But this is a passionate response. Can you justify this with logic?

What do you mean by that? I'll admit I was exaggerating by saying 100 ways, but they could have killed them with those injection things, which I believe has been mentioned either in this thread or in the link that was posted. Killing one person gives you a very long time in prison, why shouldn't killing one hundred give you a very long time in prison?
On an unrelated note, apparently a life sentence in Canada is only 25 years. That's not exactly a "life".

Why is it inhuman - your statement only gave generalities.

It is cruel. You should not destroy a life just because you do not want to lose money.

You would not care if a pig was killed to get money why do you care so much more about dogs?

There is a difference. Generally, when pigs are killed, it is so they can be eaten by humans. These dogs were not.

Your two statements contradict each other. Really these pigs were killed for money as well.

Yes, but the pigs were used to benefit humans. The dogs were just thrown in a pit.

Oh really...

The pigs must have helped humans, because otherwise they wouldn't be worth anything. To keep dogs would also have hurt humans, because otherwise, they would have kept them, or sold them, or something.
