Kill cats --- survive in a dangerous world

author:Emotional memory station

A neighbor in the group asked the property to solve the stray cat's problem on the grounds that the stray cat had attacked her child. And children are the future of mankind, in order to protect the future of mankind, it is necessary to solve the current stray cats, I think it is probably such a logic.

I've only seen similar things on the Internet before, but I think it's traffic generators doing the trick, where in the world there are so many sore people. Now I have witnessed it myself and found that the hot articles on the Internet do have an impact on reality. Therefore, the journalistic ethics of the previous traditional media are also understood: the details of a crime cannot be reported in detail, and the whole process of a criminal act cannot be exaggerated, because it may lead to subsequent imitation crimes.

Where the stray cat goes, the owner fights three hundred rounds, and I feel that this has become a fixed script. "For the sake of the child" is always a strong reason, and this sentence can even prohibit the honking of the horn when the vehicle enters the college entrance examination room, making a newborn and a group of square dancing old ladies form a rare match. "For human nature" is always a very strong defense, which can successfully dissolve the traditional saying that "man is above all else", pointing out that while man is above all things, he also has the obligation of kindness and tolerance that a strong person should have.

After watching a heated debate, I have some personal reflections.

First of all, I think that children are the future of mankind, and protecting my children is protecting the future of mankind--- this logic is problematic. I used to be the future master, the reserve pillar of the country, but it is a little strange for me to claim the property rights of the owner and ask where the house corresponding to the pillar is. Because the concept of plural numbers is true, it may not be true to take out one of the singular numbers alone. Specific to the individual, he may not become a master, but can also become a public servant; It may not be able to become a pillar, but it may become a moth. One of the futures is not equal to the future itself, all pixels make up a picture, but you can't say that a pixel is a painting.

Secondly, I also do not agree with the denial of cat lovers, and bluntly declare that stray cats will only be afraid of people, and will not actively attack people at all. This sentence does not smell of oil and salt, just like every time I enter the elevator, I meet someone with a dog without a leash, and the other party explains to me with a kind face: Don't worry, our children don't bite. My answer has always been: Then you let it be said again and I will hear it. Animals are animals, animals have different personalities, animals have their own rules. Some cats have a strong sense of territory, you feel like you're walking, it feels like you're invading. Some cats are extremely vigilant because of pregnancy and birth, and active aggression is the norm. There are also times when the smell of perfume on the body is not right, and both cats and dogs will attack under the stimulation of the sense of smell---

So why can you cut off the stray cat and not attack people?

It is therefore necessary for all parties to take a step back. A child is attacked by a cat, that is, a child is attacked, not a threat to the future of humanity. When a cat attacks a child, that is, an animal's natural seizure, it may not be possible to discuss whether the child has done something wrong, and discuss why the child is not protected by adults in time.

Acknowledge that a child is an individual, and that his experience is a case; Admit that cats are also animals, and animals themselves have a certain wildness. The problem, then, can be translated into a fact that everyone can accept: we all live in a dangerous world, and life is full of risks. Walking on the road, you may be hit by an electric donkey. Back in the complex, you may be locked up in an elevator. Some risks can be controlled, such as a decree allowing manufacturers to limit the speed of eMules. Some risks can only be defended, such as installing a red button in the elevator and pressing it to chat with a person sitting in a small room.

But on top of control and defense, everyone also needs to learn to resist and avoid risks on their own, which is a natural human obligation. How to cross the road is learned, how to solve cramps in the water is learned, how to avoid your body becoming an electric pathway, or acquired. The outside world has no unlimited responsibility for individuals, and there is no label on the wok that says "hot, do not touch". Nor did the tiger and leopard have a label on their heads, which read, "Animals are fierce, do not approach."

Perhaps parents can solve the risks posed by stray cats in the community for the sake of their children. And what about the risks of traffic? What about the risks of food? What about the risks of electrical appliances? What about the risks of policing? What about the risks of sun exposure? What about the risk of heavy rain? Or can parents do everything they can to address all these risks and create a safe environment for their children? Or is it that among all the risks, the risk of stray cats ranks first, to the extent that it must be solved?

The only thing that can be done, presumably, is to teach children the ability to defend and avoid risks, which is also part of growth. Sometimes parents have to be a nasty person, such as telling their children that the cute "bear" can open half of his scalp with a slap if he meets him in the wild. Yes, the cute bear will collapse because of this, but there may also be one less bear child in the zoo who reaches into the cage and teases the animal.

It's the same with dogs and cats. Not all cats are cats, and not all dogs are dogs. The first is to maintain a safe distance, then learn to observe the position of the ears, the state of the back, the movement of the tail, and finally decide whether to touch and where to touch--- human beings have a set of survival rules, so there is today's world. City life makes people forget a lot of common sense, just like sitting in the valley stream in the summer to cool off, and when you find that the water becomes muddy and has leaves and grass, it is best to get up and run higher. At all times, no matter how cute the pets, the same is how prepared the ancestors had to prepare for their encounter with wild animals in the wilderness many years ago.

Instead of discussing whether stray cats in the community should be culled, it is better to discuss the rules of survival in a dangerous world and what attitude life should have towards life. Especially for humans, as an interplanetary hegemon, in an absolutely strong position, how to treat other animals that are relatively weak also hints at how people will treat people to a certain extent. In human history, burning lepers to death was a common practice everywhere, just to silence the risk from the flames. Don't think it's just disposing of a few ownerless cats, the same will can also pave the way to quarantine.
