I don't usually say much outside the realm of what we do but this morning I had planned on changing my profile pic regardless of how I felt. We all laugh and enjoy our time on here and my last profile pic was hilarious at best. If you have a short memory it is of the polar bear passed out in his enclosure at a zoo. Well the first thing I saw this morning made me want to change it all that much quicker as what I saw not only freaked me out, it actually HURT. Being a VERY proud Canadian this rattled me to the core and to show my pain and sadness I will not show my polar bear again until the new year. Please understand there are no politics meant in this just pure and honest disgust and sadness for this poor animal. Please be warned it is truely sad to see so proceed with this in mind. I admit I shed a tear.

I'm sad just from the title of the link. I didn't dare click on it.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

Saw a short clip of it the other day. Very sad indeed.

If it was me, I would have stopped filming and found a way to feed the poor thing!

Ditto. Always makes me wonder how some can continue to film such a thing instead of doing something about it.
