Well I posted this here, cause maybe some of us can contribute together, and unpixelate this dudes face, and get him behind bars. Unblurring is really really hard to do, but unpixelating can be easier depending on how much pixelated the image is, this will be hard, but can definitely be done, cause I can still picture this freaks face.

This is one of the most despicable things I have seen for a while. I have two cats and we love them as if they are family. If someone ever did something like this to them I would hunt them down with everything I have. This guy should be behind bars and let loose among the rest of the inmates. I hope one of you that can unpixilate pics get to identify the culpert and turn him in.

We had some sicko kids near Orofino, Idaho who threw some cats off the dam. Then they went to school and bragged about it and done themselves in. Let's hope this jerk brags, too, so he can be quickly brought to justice.

It doesn't seem to be too pixelated, with the healing brush and the same surround colors or even resynth...you might get a good likeness.You can even tell the color of his eyes.This shouldn't be too hard.

I'll try, and see if I can get to unpixelating it later today, but I doubt it, maybe tomorrow. Maybe Rod, and I can try and get this face revealed.

This story almost makes me puke. Typing this now while my boy (my cat Socks) is sitting on my lap. You do not want to know what I want done to the inhuman being when he gets ferreted out. Keeps us informed if they find this animal Mike. :)

I am no stranger to dealing with controversy, so let me introduce some right here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeKi2gT9uGU

The above link takes you to a short youtube video that discusses how humans ruthlessly treat animals every single second of every day for food, for clothing, for entertainment for many of our own pleasures. (I originally had the video embedded here, but since the preview image was quite grotesque, and to keep a family friendly atmosphere here, I have chosen to link to it instead.)

Here we have a young person, living in a world where they can witness humans engaging in putting animals through hellish torture and righteously justifying it on some grounds, yet no one is putting all of those people behind bars.

I did things as a young person and a teen that I would not be proud of today, however, neither did I have the sense of understanding or perspective that I have today. For me to go back today at my age and judge what I myself did as a child and teen based on what I know now vs what I knew then would be wrong.

I agree that suffocating kittens is wrong and inhumane and it saddens me a lot! However, we live in a world of many mixed messages and our youth receive those mixed messages and sometimes do not comprehend them correctly, or are not yet mature enough to understand the issues with greater perspective. Should he be put in jail? I for one say a resounding NO! Do we take this opportunity to let him know that what he did was considered wrong and be a teachable moment for him? Yes. Does he receive some kind of punishment? I think the pain he is going to feel from people being angry with him over this is going to be a lot of punishment. We live in a day and age where information travels instantly. When humans engage in all kinds of torture of animals in the name of whatever cause I cannot agree with just singling out one individual.

I can agree, though, on pointing to this incident as part of a long history of mankind to do torturous inhumane things to animals in the name of whatever and as a statement to raise awareness about the problem in hopes of finding a better way.

:)

Well you have to remember animal cruelty is against the law and punishable by fine or jail or both.
To do it without telling is one thing, but to air it on YouTube is quite another.This youth clearly is going down the wrong path, and needs to be corrected - and quickly.

What i do not understand is why can't the upload be traced?

I agree that animals and people are egregiously used in the name of science. Poachers slaughter animals for their fur, feathers, horns, etc. Animals are butchered in inhumane manners for food. I do not see that as an excuse to do cruel acts to animals for the sake of doing them as the young man in those pictures did.

It is obvious that he knew what he was doing was not acceptable to others and he knew that he would be arrested if caught because he hid his face in the images. He very likely performed his "act" or similar ones several times before filming it or having it filmed. I did not see the actual film nor do I want to see it.

That depends upon the young man being teachable in matters of morality and conscience. In my opinion he is not. In my opinion he has performed other cruel acts and will continue to do so and will probably secretly smirk at any attempts to "rehabilitate" his thinking.

I personally believe he is a sadistic, sociopathic, unredeemable person who will not stop at animals. As for punishment, I sincerely doubt that it would be useful nor would it change his behavior - it may even exacerbate it. Teaching him that what he did was wrong would be fruitless, he knows it intellectually. He will have no feelings about people being angry with him and condemning him because he is conscience-free. Right and wrong do not have a place in his life; no pangs of conscience are present in his concept of "wrongfulness."

He literally lives for people being horrified and his work being publicized. Notoriety is all. He gloats with the power he has over the helpless and frightened.

I sincerely hope my grim portrayal of this person is not true but I fear that it is.

The authorities must not be trying too hard. It shouldn't be that hard. I guess they'd rather wait until he starts killing people, to go and catch him.

I watch animal planet quite often to catch the animal police episodes.
As strict as they are against animal cruelty, i am very surprised this individual hasn't been brought up on charges or even caught yet. Maybe he is the child of a politician, police officer or something and they don't want any dirty laundry waving around.

Who knows.

I'm not the person to talk about the government, cause I don't get along with them.

However the video was uploaded via YouTube, and YouTube should have the ip address on the individuals computer listed in their database, when users register, and will hold the data of the ip address of the computer that the individual was on last, however I'm guessing YouTube, doesn't wanna get involved.
