They are training to save lives not to be morticians

But there is no reason that they can't use humans instead of animals ... after all, it's been done before, and has a well-documented history.

It appears as if the only part of Genesis which is still taken almost literally is the Sixth Day ... sorry Kevin, I know you believe it all;) ... Although we seem to have ignored is the "replenish the earth" bit in order to concentrate on the "Be fruitful and multiply" part ... especially on weekends after a few drinks ... and the "subdue it and have dominion" thingies.

Since I was born, (altho' I don't think it has anything to do with me) there has been an explosion of technological progress; better mousetraps are built on a daily basis, almost hourly in the case of the IPhone. Hell, we even have cars that park themselves so that women are not such a threat when they get behind the wheel. There's gotta be a better way ... and the reason we are so successful as a species is that we inevitably find it.

Oh, and the "mousetrap" thing ... I mean no disrespect to Pixie and Dixie.;)

Re: Animals killed for training
 

Not sure about the better mousetraps- we had a lot of field mice in the garage, chewing holes etc.
Went for a couple of mousetraps, saw the old fashioned ones and the new fancy ones, expensive but 'humane and effective'.
Set them, next day there's a mouse scrabbling around the garage backwards with a trap on its head. How do you dispatch a mouse with its head covered by a trap?
Happened a couple of more times so I threw them away and got a couple of good old fashioned traps- no arguing with them- also very effective on fingers!

I once has a ball bearing mousetrap ... but I had him neutered.;)

Wasn't condoning the actions just answering what I thought was a silly question

Re: Re: Animals killed for training
 

Well maybe it was a silly question and maybe you don't condone the actions, I personally can only see two ways to go, use animals or use Accyexplorer, I know the animals would be sadly missed, can anyone the the same about our virtual village idiot?

I think he'll be ok with that as he will most likely enjoy the stuff they give to anaesthetise

Re: Animals killed for training
 

Judging by some of his threads and posts he won't need it, he's already using a quite effective one a lot of the time.

Re: Animals killed for training
 

do we have to have seperate doctors that dont use methods learned from swine on the battlefield to cater for people who dont like pigs or object to the use of pigs for training ?

its ok been english and loving animals were known for it but im guessing somones objections would somewhat subside when they find themselves with half tehir leg blown off in a ditch

Re: Animals killed for training
 

There is a third option, we could use the elderly....

..... 'anything to help save our boys' :rolleyes:

Re: Animals killed for training
 

What a wizard idea AccyX :D

Re: Animals killed for training
 

I like it!
You're a senior citizen. Are you volunteering?

Re: Animals killed for training
 

There's older folks than me need a ticket to ride across the Styx with Charon Gordon.
My work here is not done.
