A footballer Kurt Zouma (apologies if already been mentioned here) has been videoed kicking his cat and chasing it yet West Ham says they've condemned his actions and he's apologised.

AIBU to be disgusted with him?

foul foul man

YANBU
And all the twat had to do was buy a very tall good quality cat tree.
Instinctively/in their genes (going back thousands of years) cats often like to be high up so they are safe and away from predators.

It sounds very much like France will drop him, but I haven't heard that a decision has been made.

Source please?

@VladmirsPoutine

He's been dropped from France?
Don't think it's been decided but it's looking that way thankfully.
VladmirsPoutine · 13/02/2022 20:11

Oh my goodness. I think they might even bring in capitol punishment next just for him then ban it again.

Ah you're on of those. Well I'm glad the scumbag is being taken seriously.

Don't be goady - again.

The point I'm making is that nothing will ever be enough. There will come no point that people accept he's faced enough consequences. I stand by what I said previously. Someone earlier queried why he couldn't take a leaf out of Marcus Rashford's book Confused

He needs sacking. He needs to be prosecuted. He needs to be made an example of, like others have been to show that it's not acceptable.

What is your opinion of the teacher that lost her job for hitting a horse?
masmoeker · 13/02/2022 21:03

disgusting indeed

VladmirsPoutine · 13/02/2022 21:09

@Newfluff IIRC she lost her job at a school? Can't remember if she was prosecuted though. Did people suggest she should be deported?

She should have been prosecuted.

I want all animal/child abusers deported. To a far far away island where they can all live together with no animals or children.

Astrak · 13/02/2022 21:17

Nasty little excuse for a human. I hope that his cats are not returned to him, and that he is banned from owning any animals during his life time. Ditto the person who filmed it.

Ridiculous.

Has he? Where did you get that information or have you just made it up to be dramatic?

Deported? Where too?

It's capital and stop being so flippant.

There are existing laws, you don’t need special ones for rich and/or black people to let everyone know you feel extra revulsion at their crimes.

People don’t want special laws for rush/ black people. They want them for animal abusers (and murderers and rapists).

The fact that he’s a role model to so many young people is an additional concern (just like the teacher was a role model to children).

TooTiredForAdventure · 14/02/2022 06:27

*rich

“making an example of”- a cast iron way of letting everyone know you’re a sanctimonious jealousy riven human.

I don't give a shit what colour his skin is you fool. Stop it with the race thing. Fuck sake

@SportsMother

There are animal cruelty laws for animal abusers.

Also murder and rape laws for murderers and rapists. although I would at least like them to be applied.

Role model- I’m sorry but no. The day Jurgen Klinsmann started shamelessly diving is when parents should have stopped letting their kids see footballers as role models (and that’s 30 years ago)

They are not stringent enough. He should not be allowed to continue in the public eye as a role model. Just as the vile teacher shouldn't ever be allowed to teach again.
