    These stupid kids made a youtube video of Themselves abusing a Grey cat named dusty. Alot of people were outraged about it, they did research on the youtube account, which lead to their myspace.

    heres the full story

    Wow, I can't believe that they would do that, and post in on youtube. That's just messed up: Why would you beat up two cats? AND, you showed it on youtube...

    i have a link to the video, but I dont think it would be a good idea to post it, unless its okay and not against the rules

    I don't know if it's allowed; I mean here's what "Illegal Content" is:

    But, I don't know if the mods will appreciate it or not...

    ZOMG SCREW THE JUVENILE SYSTEM!!!!! Those teens need to serve some serious time, animal abuse is a horrible thing and leaves animals scarred not only physically but mentally for the rest of their lives, these teens knew what they were doing and that it was wrong, at least the 16 year old should be tried as an adult to teach not only them a lesson but anybody else who thinks it would be "fun" to post this kind of crap on youtube. I actually think this is worse than the videos of people abusing other people because the other people can fight back... the animals on the other hand are completely helpless... Also i think you can post it since it doesn't have a trojan or virus and isnt porn just put a warning like on top and bottom of it in bold and huge font that it is explicit material...

    I get the jist of what's gone on from the posts so far. I don't even want to read that story because I'm sure it'll upset me and just end up making me angry. I sometimes wonder why people have to be so awful.

    As for the video link, I know I won't watch it, but there's nothing against the rules about posting it so if you really want to, go ahead, BUT please put a big, obvious, red warning on there saying what it is and that it might upset you if you watch it. That way, no one can complain about it upsetting them :/

    I hate when stuff like this happens. We just had a case in my country where some young people set fire to a hamster. I mean WHY? it's not FUN to see someone in pain! Come on - get a life, or a hobby. I absolutely hate it when people abuse animals. You can't be straight in your head and go and do something like that - it's just messed up D':

    I'm amazed this was even proccessed onto youtube. And how stupid are those kids? And why WOULD THEY BEAT UP A CAT? LOL? This is depressing. Look what our world is coming to:
    we are beating up cats because we want YOUTUBE VIEWS?! LOL?
    Good that they god punishment- hopefully this will set up an example.
    *depressed*

    That is messed up! I had 2 little hamsters as pets and they were the cutest things around. I do agree with you. Murderers and physchos start off as kids abusing/hurting animals, then as they get older they start to hurt people!

    I don't plan to watch the video, things like that make me very upset, but what I want to know is why can't YouTube (and similar) have a vetting system whereby the content is viewed by a human before it is accepted and released for viewing? It seems to me these sites pretty much leave it to the viewers to flag up inappropriate content. Plenty of sites have a moderating system your photos/vids etc go through before they are aired to the public.

    On a related subject, someone got jailed here a few weeks ago for microwaving a kitten. Apparently they want to know 'what would happen'. Sick :(

    Huh. Well if our grave-dig rule was 2 days I'd report you lol -.-
    I think it's been concluded that they are messed up kids who have ruined their lives just cause they wanted more subscribers for youtube..

    youtube can't have a vetting system as you call it because there's so many videos being uploaded that to watch through them all would mean they would be sitting there until they die or until youtube dies which doesn't seem as likely as them dieing xD
