Also, you cannot compare insurance to this, because the guy was ready to pay for all the back pay. With insurance, you are esentially asking to pay 500 bucks in order to claim 10 grand. It's not the same thing.

It's the exact same thing. You pay $75 per year to get a service that could very well cost $1500. You can't call your insurance company after your policy lapsed and make a claim saying you're willing to pay your premium.

As much as you want them to be on the same level as humans, our pets are not. You can buy a pet, you can choose to euthanize a pet... shelters put down thousands of animals a week. When people are treated like that, its a global concern and has historical significance.
I wish they would have saved the pets, I really do... But to put blame on anyone else other than this guy and to compare this to raping his family and whatnot is completely irrational and quite frankly, very short-sighted
