    When I was six, I was fishing with my father and uncle in a boat. We got a fish, and my uncle swiftly killed the fish immediately. I asked why he did it, it would’ve died anyway.

    He said something along the lines of “All life should be respected enough not to let it suffer” and nothing else. A useful lesson that changed my view on suffering of animals. The man was later listed as one of the 10 most sought after criminals in my country, but I take the good and leave the bad.

      Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

        Nah, white collar crime. I think he ended up on the list mostly because it’s relatively unusual for people to both be convicted and manage to avoid getting caught.
