    Rodent Revenge!
    Well yea I feel bad for the poor guy losing his home, but I am sure there are more humane ways to get rid of a mouse besides burning alive :-/
    We haven't had mice in the house for so many years, but the few times we used to get them, we caught them and released them in the nearby field.
    Maybe this was mother natures way of saying "You needlessly torture my creatures, I needlessly burn your house"

    *note* please don;t take this as I don't feel bad for the man losing his home and belongings b/c I think its horrible!
    I just think he shouldn't have wanted to burn a living animal alive unecessarily :-p
    Feeding a snake a mouse= the food chain/survival.
    Burning alive b/c the mouse happened to wander into his house= pointless cruelty that coulda easily been handled more humanely.

    Friend just said this "Theres unwriten rules, things you just don't do and throwing live mice onto a fire is one of them".

    Sure its a shame that his house and everything in it burned down, but he threw a mouse on a fire, he burned it alive. Ironic justice if you ask me. I find mice now and then and I never kill them.. I put on some gloves (Due to them being wild and might bite and/or give you some kind of illness) and put it outside.

    I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but what a moron :roll: And since no one died, I have absolutely no sympathy for him. Throwing a mouse into a fire is just cruel and heartless. That was one smart mouse!

    The saddest thing is... that the man probably wont get charged with animal cruelty for openly admitting to wanting to burn an innocent animal alive ;)
    If he did that to a dog he'd be locked up or heavily fined. But no one cares about the smaller creatures.

    no no the rat has been eaten. roswell decided to eat it the next day so that whole ordeal is overwith. i did briefly think "how fitting would it be if i was killed by a snake?"
