This incident occurred in Texas. The crime of killing an animal would
be secondary to the witchcraft,

If you think there is no crime, you're psychotic. No, not all chicken
raising is humane, but to deliberately use a chick as a baseball is and
should be a crime. OMG I just don't have enough words for why this is so
wrong and because you don't think so speaks volumes about who you are.
This is going to give me nightmares.

There was no crime here. Not unless you consider
the whole poultry industry to be a crime.

I'll give you that. I only read the first paragraph before I was
sickened by what I thought they meant.

The article doesn't say anything about using a chick as a baseball.
It may have been sacrificed as humanely as it would have been
as an adult, but without the battery experience in between. Or
perhaps it was a male chick, which would have been disposed of
in any event.

Maybe it wasn't used for meat. Is that what bothers you?
So this is okay?

I don't know why the Daily Mail should be reporting trivia from Texas, but
for those of you who aren't familiar with the newspaper - it is a very
unreliable source of information.

I suppose you're a Texan?


Either way..... if the story is true, the moronic idiots should be given a
huge kick in the ass, and made to go out and practice every spare minute that
they have...... rather than rely on 'voodoo' to help them win!!
