Why Me?

Show an abused dog or cat and there is a public outcry. Newsmen say, "These next scenes your family may find objectionable," and then they show scenes of animal abuse.

So, WHY, is it OK to show Alligators being hooked, drugged and then shot, point blank, in the head, and there is a whole series devoted to this scenario. Another one shows hunting and killing wild hogs. I must admit I have not seen that one, but saw the promos. I have not watched the Alligator show either, but came across parts while channel hopping.

Some schools have an Alligator as a mascot, whey have they not said something.

Are networks that hard up for shows? How about a live show from a slaughter house showing how they kill all those cows each day? Where are the animal rights activists when you need them?
