By no means was I supporting this.

...ima find you and dissect you.
One thing that isn't understood about Gunnison, and other central Utah schools is that they are actually geared toward agriculture to the point that they are actually more like vocational schools than your normal school.

The teacher should be brought up on creulty to animals charges. Here in Va. it would be done in a heartbeat and he would lose his job before his next thought.

In theory, its perfectly ethical to aneathise the animal and then disect it, rather than kill it an dissect it.

This cruelty plain and simple, as i said before dog's are called man's best friend for a reason. would you kill your best friend? no! dogs are protectors and friends, why anyone would treat a dog so horribly is unconsiousable.

In korea, dogs are regularly eaten. Dog farms are maintained where they are raised, slaughtered, butchered, and shipped to market. A vivisection is a good way to learn about anatomy and biology, to see living organs in operation. The dog is not treated poorly for this, and probably comes either from a warehouse where they are raised for the purpose, or from a shelter when they are up to be destroyed.

How is the vivisection cruel? The thing can't feel it, its been made comatose. The drugs that are designed to destroy them, to put them to sleep, those aren't designed to be painless, we have no idea what sensations they feel as it killed them. This stuff merely knocks them out, makes them unconcious, they can't fell anything, its like when a person goes into surgery. Its fundamentally not 'cruel', as long as its treated respectfully. Its being used to teach knowledge, important knowledge, rather than merely beign injected and thrown into a scrap heap and burnt with dozens of other strays.
