From my little friend

[Tree 0]

I was reading Calvin and Hobbes the other day (C&H is an American comic that was published from 1980's- the early 1990's. Not sure if it was published internationally) and I came across a subject that I found interesting.

 

Should cannibilism be grounds for leniency in muurder, since it's less wasteful?

 

Just a thought.

[Doctor Destiny 41]

Calvin and Hobbes for teh win.

 

But, uh, cannibalism is still murder so no... no leniency.

[chickendippers 1]

No - a person is still killed, so it's murder....infact I think it should get a harsher punishment.

[Saracen 16]

A court would probably put you under the mental heath act for that particular country declaring you clinically and morally insane... Nothing like a good piece of crispy thigh over the camp fire

[Cygnus X-1 12]

charged for murder, desecration of corpse/body, and being an utter and complete savage

 

yup, thats bad.

 

BTW Calvin and Hobes in runnin in the papers again, its a great comic strip

[Luk3us 63]

Well yes it is murder... So no..

 

But if they were already dead then I suppose it would be alright wouldn't it? Assuming the famliy didn't object?

... Nothing like a good piece of crispy thigh over the camp fire

 

You got that right :wink:

 

Human meat is good and shouldnt be wasted on worms :wink: :wink:

[Cygnus X-1 12]

you guys are sickening me......

 

Id lock it if I was Fenring, but Im not so..... :wink:

[Luk3us 63]

I don't see anything offensive.

eating other humans ? tell me thats not offensive...

[Luk3us 63]

Meh. I don't see the big deal....

 

You eat Cows... Ya don't get upset over that do you?

[chickendippers 1]

Well physically canabalism is fine, as long as you don't eat the brain - if you do you get an horrific condition.

[Luk3us 63]

???

 

So as long as ya avoid zee brain ya all good?

 

Gees. Chickendippers I'd hate to go round to your place for dinner..

 

And on the menu is Arms and legs.. No brains.. They're like bad for ya.!

[Guest MadBadger]

I do belive its only if the person whos brain your eating had a certain contition..... so most of the time the brains ok.... hanibal seemed ok.... if not him and the little kid on the plane are farked

[Cygnus X-1 12]

eating cows is fine ,there are food animals :tired:

 

but eating other humans.....

 

i guess if you didnt know but.....not willingly

[Saracen 16]

Human meat is supposed to be quite a delicacy, or so I hear..

 

It's just the morality surrounding it.... we were all like animals once... the human race had to survive somehow if hunting was not an option..

 

survival of the fittest afterall :wink:

[chickendippers 1]

Eating the brain is bad for you. There's some African/South American tribe (I honestly can't remember which) which ate human brain as part of its canabal rituals, and loads of them developed what can only be described as mad cow disease!

[Saracen 16]

on the subject of eating strange body parts.. here's some facts...

 

The Egyptians use ground up Monkey's Testicle as a great spice alternative to enhance the flavour of some of their foods.

 

The Spanish have Bull's testicle as a main course in some restaurants. During bull runs in the summer it's been told that if someone manages to kill the bull, they get the dish free as a token.

 

In many countries, eyes are a delicacy, ranging from fish eyes, up to the eyes of larger mammals... The same goes for brains.

 

Personally, I'd rather go no further than liver and onions.. :?

[Luk3us 63]

I've eatten raw fish eyes before.. As a dare when I caught it..

 

I won't be eatting one of those again... :?

[Cygnus X-1 12]

man its like Fear Factor out there

 

different cultures and all that, but....hehe I think Ill stick ot fish and chips, or better yet, a nice juicy Steakburger

[Guest MadBadger]

.... we should be aloud to eat vegans..... there a waste of air.

[Luk3us 63]

As long as they're hot.

[Acerz492 1]

Damn straight..

[Guest MadBadger]

hrmmm i supose you can have the hot sheep luk3us..... ill let the fit vegan HUMAN females live.

[Acerz492 1]

:rockbrow: I thought we agreed on no more sheep jokes dude...lol...

 

Anyvey, the whole "cannibilism with constent" issue is on the same grounds as assisted suicide. It's either: Help someone, with good intentions (if you're into the whole 'eating other humans' thang of course..) or become a target of the media and put under immense pressure.

 

Personally if someone who wanted to die, who was going to die anyway, wanted me to kill them, I wouldn't bother. We had a case like that over here and now there's a big uproar about it. :roll: I don't need that kind of attention and predjudice.

 

Come to think of it, "Cannibilism with Consent" and assisted suicide are almost the same... :?
