Pisces and abusive behavior

I was at a birthday/social gathering some time ago. There were around 10 people spending time in a very relaxed environment. There were a few stray pets around, just seeking food and company. I noticed that only the 2 pisces in the crowd abused the animals (it wasn't serious enough to call PETA but enough to grab attention), the abuse was verbal and physical. They didn't want them to be around due to the possibility of rabies or any other disease.
I looked with amazement as they seemed to take pleasure in that 'activity'.
I realize this is the pisces board so I will be called all sorts of names, I'd like to hear a logical explanation to this behavior from a psychological perspective.

Stray animals carry rabies .. if you don't know that, then I would like for you to explain to me why you think you have logical thought in that you think it's illogical for a person to be leary of a stray animal, which has a very high possibility of being dangerous in the summer months when rabies run rabid.

You said, "stray pets" ... pets cannot be stray unless they are feral.

What happened was, the cat was hit with a football, once (but thankfully seemed to be perfectly fine). Plenty of kids were present. This happened before I could do anything about it and the verbal abuse was done by a much older person, therefore I did not have the right to say "shut the fuck up", put it to cultural differences. There were words spoken against these two people and other people clearly felt uncomfortable as well.

As I said, there were 10 people present (not-so-close family), only the pisces were abusive, that's the only reason I mentioned it.

Pee-Angel: you don't need to be abusive toward animals even if they have rabies, just ignore them. Runaway pets are considered strays, I'm not even sure one of them was an actual stray.

PS. rest of the time, I get along great with the 2 pisces, so there is no personal vendetta going on toward pisces here.

You know cats eat fish. They thought they would be killed. 😛

Ah, best answer! Why didn't I think of that.

My sister and i made this connection recently. We know of two Pisces that will supposedly go out of their way when driving to hit a stray dog, cat, etc. One is a relative
Ive never witnessed it, but stories are always told of how she'll run over a dog with no problem. Another is my sisters friend fiancee. They said he swerved to the other side of the street to hit a dog one day. they both seem to do it for entertainment purposes. glad to read the rest of you like animals.

Yeah, everyone born between February 20th and March 20th are animal haters, and openly go out of their way to hurt or kill animals.

And everyone born between August 23rd and September 22nd stand idly by when they witness this cruelty, doing nothing, and blaming it on their culture.

*shrug*

Yeah, animal abuse is the catalyst of murderous behaviour, so unless you are saying that all Pisces have murderous tendencies - I'd have to say you can't pin this purely on the sun sign of Pisces. How on earth you would try to in the first place is beyond me.

And - because of my Pisces hate for animals, I can't even read this thread anymore. THAT's how much I hate animals. Because this whole thread disgusts me. Particularly the comment about the person with a relative that purposely tries to hit animals. Vomit. (No personal reflection on the poster, unless you really don't take a reasonable stand against that sort of idiocy).

Typically I'm more upset when I see road kill (let alone animal "abuse" or other suffering) than when a person dies.

Gross thread. To me anyway. I can't handle this shit

I've never known of a Pisces who was so cold hearted so I have no insight on that (controlling, jealous personalities in general, in my experience, but never abusive toward animals). I would chalk it up to some mental disorder (sociopathic - same with Inana's family members). Sounds like folks who would have had no problem lighting an animal on fire as a young child (or even now). I would have stood up and said something. But, that's me...

Yeah, well, I did stand by and as for the verbal abuse, animals can't understand that so I was just annoyed. I'm withdrawn and rarely interfere, in that situation it happened once, I tend to explode when something like that would happen twice.

Most pisces here really got too emotional, I was perhaps expecting some psychological explanation for doing that. And no, I don't think it's all pisces, what I said was just my observation (and I don't know any other pisces people).

I'm not emotional about anything, nor is my answer evidence of that.

I asked you why you thought it illogical that a person be leary of feral animals, in which could carry rabies.


tell me how that ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ comes across being all emotional.



So that leaves a person to realize that you didn't want a conversation, you wanted to present a situation in which you knew Pisces would get emotional, so you could berate them for being emotional.

... because it's illogical for a person to say that being leary of the possibility of rabid animals isn't logical.

You have taken a very specific situation - a person being afraid that an animal might carry rabies

And grouped it into meaning all animals in saying - abusive to animals



Now, what is it you want to know about the psychology of people?
