Okay, why do you sometimes post horrible things that are trollish and
other times post rational things?
Split personality or a really bad sense of humour?

Just another form of trolling. To suck you in. It's working, too.

hey if the guy is posting these things and they are true then is he a
crusader for animals? i dont like these things that he posted but if
true then welcome to the real world. but if the intent is to make
people angery at him then you are dealing with something altogether a
different psychopathology.

so has anybody checked to see if they have done this? if so and its
lies then one thing but if not then you have a whole nother issue in our
lives to deal with. we as americans take advantage of so many luxuries
but some of them are at a price and this seems to be the crux of this
post...is the information he post true or not? if so what will you do
with the information.
