was it a full grown turtle or a baby turtle? i didnt watch the video. if it was a baby, their shells are almost as soft as their regular skin. plus turtles skin isnt flame resistant at all. theyre cold blooded animals. if nothing else, it was probably painful as hell.It was a grown female and you can't say one way or another if the turtle was painfully hurt from this. How can you say turtle skin isn't flame resistant at all? Have you tried to burn one? From The Forum, "The turtle is believed to have returned back to water after the incident".

By the way, can you tell it's slow at my work today?

This thread is huge... But We've all done stupid shit when we were young, if anything the 18 year old should go to jail for like a day or two, and then have probation and community service.
People do more fucked up things then kill a turtle and they get away with it
the people in peta need to get a life, and do something that actually matters

It wasn't like they took a torch and directed it at the turtle's face until it ignited. They burned fuel off the turtles body. Watch the video again, tell me if you see any skin that looks burnt or mangled.
And yes, Dragon's like Brian says:icon_albino:

Honestly,im not a "tree hugger,a hippie,or an animal rights person" But what they did is rong. Hell ive killed an animal before when i was like 9 yrs old, it was a dimond back snake(i was also scared shitless of it). But these kids had no right to just say "hey dude theres a turtle there...where??...should we light it on fire? hahaha duh..ok" Thats just retarted. As for their punishment,i think a couple days in jail or juvie wouldnt hurt some community service and probation.But no death penelty or something crazy like that

OK, I was sleeping since my first post(night shift - teh Gayzor) otherwise u know me, I wouldve been disagreeing with all of you every other post.
A. I didnt know how old the kids were, but regardless, this doesn't make me think they should serve a worse punishment.
B. I like the point someone brought up about the lobster thing... They have cooking videos FOR SALE showing people doing that, Is Emerill Lagazi GOing to Jail? I think not.
C. I agree with nate on it probably not hurting the turtle. Theres probably a reason a lot of lakes around here have turtles 100 plus years old living in them. Plus turtles are pretty much as close to a dragon as you can get, Am I right?

this is dumb, ive never heard anyone defending the turtles before this came about. anyone here mourning the death or whatever of the stupid turtle needs to get out more.
comparing a death to a turtle to a death of a puppy or kid is just night and day...well unless your master splinter
