Last night I saw a friend of mine standing on a street corner a little after 2am. He didn't look like he was particularly interested in going anywhere as I approached. I asked what he was up to. His response was to show me the large street rat he had cradled in his arms. Three drunk guys had taken it upon themselves to kick the rat half to death. My friend didn't know what to do to help the rat, and was fairly certain nothing could be done. He held the rat until it passed, doing the only thing he could, which was to keep it warm.
It sucks that some people grow up to think that inflicting pain on another living being for no good reason is entertainment. It is awe inspiring that others were raised to care enough about all living creatures to hold a dying rat trying to make its last moments less painful.
