There are plenty of
HUMANE ways to deal with mice.
IMO a snap of the spine of a mouse is a swift procedure, in which little to no cruelty is involved. Rat poison on the other hand, that's cruel.
And about the thread: Not embedded, the OP warned in advance.
What does it matter whether it's embedded or not? - with a link you don't have to click the link, with an embed you don't have to click play. And the other thread that I mentioned warned about the nature of the content of the video, but it got a completely different treatment.
The only difference I can see here is that it's mice, which people dislike. Where as the other was dogs and raccoons (which, btw, are vermin too) which people like.
I actually personally don't mind the video - I'm not a screaming PETA loon - I just think that either all videos showing animal cruelty should be allowed (with appropriate warnings) or none of them should be.
This is more about the consistency of moderation on these forums than the cruelty itself.
