Just an abused elephant killing people.

that's called "moving the goalposts"- different people will define "cruelty" differently. so you say you would never resort to cruelty, but you will kill an animal for food, because that's not cruel. but once you have labelled an animal as "food", the way you look at it changes, and you may not think too much of hanging a dog in a bag off the back of your truck, because it's not a pet, it's fucking food.

Granted that there are subjective distinctions on where the line is drawn. I think most people would include hanging a dog in a bag off the back of a truck as past that line though. If you do need to resort to taking a life, be it animal or human, one should do it in the least painful and quickest method possible. That is my opinion, and I stick to it. I have not condemned the actions of those in question. I merely stated my stance.
