Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Puppies aren't exactly a snake's normal diet. An owl or snake will catch mice in the wild. If you don't feed the owl or snake a mouse, it will die.
Also, people tend to frown more upon cruelty with the more personality an animal has. Its very easy to see how a puppy/dog has a personality while you will never hear of cruelty to fish as they aren't the life of a party. Rodents (which are typically pests anyways) are about the same level as fish.
Come to my house. Me and my fish sit around and play cards and drink beer.

I sort of agree with you first statement, although it is totally possible a wild snake could find a stray dog, and eat it. I also have some of the stongest feelings towards animals as anybody, I love them to death. As far as your second statement, I think that is wrong. And an animal is an animal, whether that be a dog, cat, mouse, fish, elephant, or ants. In my eyes, they are all equal, and it's not right to put different animals on different "levels". Just my opinion.
I think this is horrible, but why does a guy get sentenced to 90 days for feeding a puppy to a boa, but nobody gets sentenced for feeding a mouse to a snake or owl. In my eyes, they are all creatures and not one is different in my eyes in terms of importance.

What about feeding gold fish to pet pirahnas or oscars...?
Social acceptance dictates what is right and wrong these days...

That is a good question, but it has just become normal for people feeding a mouse to animals for food. A puppy to a boa constrictor is just wrong.
