Different people view different animals with varying degree of value. Most would cuddle a rabbit but squash a rat with their shoe. What's the difference? They're both little rodents with warm bellies and soft fur.

Stunning, killing, live...again, everyone has their own opinion but...Rob has dealt with those who want to shut us down.

I'll bet New Yorkers now wish they were more careful with the little things. It doesn't matter what is real or not.

Perception is reality to those to ignorant to tell the difference. People react on perception as much as they do on reality.
