A man dismembered a dog this Sunday on the main road of the popular housing of Los Guayos, Carabobo state.
It was observed that the subject had a knife with which he took the meat from the animal.
The fact spread on Twitter through a video. "It looks and does not believe, right?" Said the man who recorded the audiovisual material.

Where are the forum UI's? The ones that insist that Bolivarian Socialism is the answer to everything that ails Latin America?
A man butchers a pet so that he can eat. Is this the BENEVOLENCE that Chavismo seeks to spread?

Was the cow his pet? Someone else's pet?
Was the man chasing the cow down, stoning it to death? (see above video from Venezuela)
Was the man starving to death in America???

So in your book, its OK that toddlers in Venezuela eat rotten and poisonous foods out of garbage tips? As long as no animals are butchered behind closed doors or otherwise?
I can assure you that no cows or dogs were harmed when kids ate the very poisonous bitter yuca that killed them, in the story below.
