A Virginia man faces charges of misdemeanor animal cruelty and disorderly conduct after allegedly hurling his girlfriend's kitten against the wall after it disconnected the video game he was playing. Staunton, Virginia authorities were called to the apartment of 21-year-old Bruce Jamar Walston by his girlfriend around 9pm last night. The woman called 911 after Walston, angered that the video game he was playing was disconnected by his girlfriend's new kitten, allegedly picked up the animal and threw it against the wall, killing it. According to authorities, the incident occurred in front of the woman's children. Walston is being held without bond at the Middle River Regional Jail in Verona. Prior to this incident he was out on bond in relation to a January breaking and entering charge. Source
thats why i tell people that a kitty dies evrytime u kill someone with a nooby weapon :O poor kitty never stood a chance
he should also have mandatory video-game addiction therapy and anger management. also, if /b/ finds out they will likely ruin his life, for the heck of it.
I feel very sad for the kitteh ! :'( I'm glad justice made its job in condemning this dude. I own a 15 years old kitteh ( got it 15 years ago)[ my avatar was the head of my cat some times ago]. I am upset by what the guy did. I'm glad his girlfriend accused him. R.I.P. Kitteh
It would've been funny if the kittay lived w/o getting hurt or anything...idk...if I was playing halo or something and my friends cat disconnected it I might pull a knife
Some people need help. On second thought, scratch that. I hope they stay like this and treat their children similarly. Because then they'll get proper punishment and it'll serve as deterrent for the child in case they inherited some of that temperament and addiction to lousy video games.
With the deterrent bit I'm actually speaking from experience :x Not the physical abuse part but the fact that if the child falls victim to a bad aspect of a personality then they'll end up less likely to be similar, such as moi. And by the way, with the "then they'll get proper punishment" I wasn't referring to the child but that the same action against a person results in a more severe punishment than against an animal.
Actually I would argue the opposite. People who were abused by their alcoholic father seem to have much rougher life than other children. Regardless of whether that is true or not I am not fine with abusing children just so they are less likely to abuse their children in the future.
