So its cat/dog > human > other animals?
Don't get me wrong, the guys a jerk for doing this to his pet, but I wouldn't wish him harm, at worst I would go out of my way to avoid him.
Thats what I meant. People need to get their ethics and priorities straight.
Acting out of reason and not instinct is what separates men from beast.

People love their pets because they give their owners love without asking for much in return. If a person does something bad it's because they chose to do it. If a pet does something bad it's because it is in their nature or you scared it or you didn't train it properly or whatever. Pets are nicer than humans I suppose :D at least that's how it makes sense to me.
I guess the fact that non-vegetarians get outraged at animal abuse is because animals killed for meat aren't abused to the same extent that this cat was.

Someone who beats a cat, or tortures animals in some other way, is not a person I would want to be around. Don't most serial killers get their start from doing stuff like that? It's a huge warning flag that this person is dangerous and not in the right frame of mind.
Now the question for what to do about it should be obvious: counseling and therapy, and lots of it. Because I can see no better way to instill or fix these kids concepts of right and wrong. To cause pain for pleasure, its not something you can simply scold someone and slap their wrist over, because that concept can bleed forth into every aspect of their life.

It's those kinda sick kids that become murderers and rapists.

MOOOARRRRR.
+ Show Spoiler +I can't believe I just did that -_-.
The guy who beat the cat is despicable. He deserved to be caught, and I have to give it to 4chan for going through with it. I can't say I necessarily support 4chan in everything, but I support this. I have a cat =)

Or perhaps even worse, cat murderers and cat rapists.

probably about as much as most other cats
which would mean it tormented and killed small animals such as bugs, mice, rats, birds, lizards, etc.

Hahahah, 4chan is so amazing.

another example of kitty sin is that they tend to be incredibly self-centered
