    its sad.. but it was an accident right? that can happen. Don't get me wrong, I really oppose to the use of for instance wild animals in movies and animals being maltreated for movies, but these were trained horses right?

    Exactly why things will never change for the better, regarding the way we treat animals other than that of our own species (Hell we even treat our own like shit). I don't understand what is so funny about any living thing dying? I realize that humor exists because of all the sorrow in our world (read some Socrates/Aristotle), but sorrow itself isn't funny, that's just really sickening man. Try not only to put yourself in the position of other humans but other animals as well, then try and tell me anything having to do with an animal needlessly dying is funny. AKA just think to yourself "How would I like it if I was in that position?"

    don't worry people sometimes use laughter to shield their real emotions

    I'm surprised that type of blatant trolling is allowed here. Its hard to believe that even here, people find laughter and/or joy in animals dying.

    Many people find an unconscious or sort of ignorant joy in animals dying. Take for example when someone eats a burger. Assuming of course that it's like the majority of meat that is eaten, that being mass butchered meat and that they enjoyed it (the burger). So, although not deriving their pleasure from the fact that the animal was slaughtered they still get some form of joy out of the death of an animal.

    will they eat the horse? seems like a terrible waste if they just bury it.

    it is INCREDIBLY ironic that it died during the filming of My Friend Flicka, a story of friendship between a child and it's companion horse. sweet story of animals and humans bonding.

    No the horse dying is a very sad thing, it's just that the title made me laugh for some reason.

    Maybe it owuld have been funnier if they tortured the horse to death first.

    It is the act of human compassion which set us apart from most living things on earth and is the true sign of unconditional love. To think or feel in any other way is a contradiction of very humanity...

    Well, sometimes when something is really sad, people's first reaction to it is to find some sick humour in it... We've all done that. So it's not trolling.

    It's not trolling...I was responding cause someone said it was...
    I've seen plenty of trolling. I'm not easily offended but most of it is just pure stupidity...there are some people on here who's posts/threads I won't even bother reading, and Captain Cannabis definitely isn't one of them.
