What are some inhumane activities?

Asked by ahro0703 (381points) June 20th, 2014

My friends say that somethings are inhumane and others are not. But sometimes I don’t get the actual standard of inhumane things and humane things.

Hurting anything or anyone for the sake of hurting them would be my definition. Yes , I have hurt things, but usually for their good. I pulled a link of chain out of the neck of a St Bernard, and that dog never flinched. Because it knew I wouldn’t hurt it if I didn’t need to. That’s the difference.

I agree with @Adirondackwannabe. If you hurt someone and it does no one good then it’s inhumane.

Bullfighting, the Spanish have many barbaric rituals involving animals, shame on them.

Well to me an inhumane activity would be forcing me to listen to Barack Obama making a speech. :)

Insulting.

Agreed with @ZEPHYRA

WTF! Are you a sociopath? Clearly, causing pain or suffering or humiliation towards any living thing is inhumane.
If you enjoy tormenting and torturing animals, get some help.
Most 4 year olds have already grasped the concept of not hurting others or animals.

How the hell old are you anyway?

Indifference towards the problems of any particular group of people, the law taking the hard-earned property of people for minor criminal offenses, so-called normal, positive, loving people who can be happy even when horrible things are happening to others right in front of them. These types of people scare me way more than any psychopath or terrorist.
