Floridian Teenage Cat Killer may get 158 years in state prison

What the hell is wrong with the USA? No seriously.

I mean, I understand that this guy probably has some issues, and killing cats is bad or whatever, but 158 years for a bunch of cats? Seriously?

I mean, a cat is worth something like $500 on average I guess, if that. This kid steals and destroys something like $10,000 of cat. To my estimates (at $500 per cat), that means he’s eligible for one year in prison for every $60.13 of damage that he caused.

Since when did animal lives become worth so much, and more importantly, since when did human lives become worth so little?

In Canada

Well,
I’m in Canada – and it’s just as boring as I’d imagined it would be!

On the bright side:

  • I will finally have the time to get my Zend certification
  • I will make a decent amount of money because of long work hours
  • I may finally get back into shape
  • I may finally get a chance to launch my poker site

I look at this time as – well – prison time. Counting the days. Doing my best to stay alive.

Cheers,
