Children being mistreated. I can't. Not after having kids myself. I'm a wreck after seeing stuff like that now.

Although I don't have kids everything I've heard about the Ruby Franke/8 Passengers case made my blood boil. That scumbag saw her kids as nothing but a way to get clicks and money, and I'm glad that she's going to rot in prison.

And related to this, add animal abuse to the list of things that make my blood boil too. It's wild to think that until recently there was such a thing as a thriving "monkey torture network".

Indeed. Horrific things. Innocent people and animals, so enraging to see.

I was probably in my teens when I saw this video of stomping little bunnies with heels. Like sharp heel shoes, whatever you call them. And the bunnies could do nothing but receive this torture.

Bear in mind I had watched beheadings and other gore prior to this, on a crazy early millennium Internet.

But those bunnies. I had to turn it off.
