Your comment is confusing

Apparently you do not seem to understand that they actually respect "life" of all living things

Then again, here in Nigeria we indulge in jungle justice and no one bats an eyelid or think it is wrong to kill his fellow man outside the law. Something that can never happen over there.

And you think something went wrong with them? No bro, something is wrong with YOU

Lol.

A man is facing jail for shooting dead and burying his sick dog on a public beach to end its suffering.

Michael Whalen shot dead his beloved hound mix Allie in the head in late January after the sick dog was seizing for almost an hour.

Crying, he buried her in the sand dunes along Virginia Beach, Virginia, according to reports.

The 65-year-old could spend a year in jail and pay thousands of dollars in fines for animal cruelty charges and illegally burying his pet.

Whalen claims that he isn't an animal abuser and killing his dog of 15 years wasn't a crime, but rather an act of love.

He said he had no choice other to end Allie's life because 'it was too painful to watch her suffer.'

Allie was found buried in a shallow grave on February 10, after a passerbynoticed her paw sticking out from the sand

Police were alerted and began searching for the dog's owner.

After someone gave officers a tip, Whalen was charged with one count of animal cruelty and one count of dumping trash on March 17.

The ban of carry-on electronics on flights was reportedly prompted by intelligence gathered about an ISIS plot to target the West.

Above, the airports and countries targeted by the new American and British policies.

New ban: The ban on laptops from inside UK-bound flights from six countries follows fears terrorists may have perfected a bomb like the one that blew a hole in this Somalian plane last year (pictured)

Passengers checked in their electronic devices on dozens of flights from Dubai to Doha on Saturday.

'It's a hassle and difficult for the airport employees.

It took much longer than usual to board,' said passenger Conor McCormick, flying from Istanbul.

'Boarding the plane from the gate has become a massive, slow process.

All carry-on luggage is checked and laptops are wrapped and stored.

'The amount of airport employees required for this whole process is way more than what would be needed if there was no laptop ban.

'At Dubai International, one of the world's busiest hubs, Emirates dispatched staff to guide passengers through one of the most intense travel weekends of the year.

A controversial ban on carry-on laptops and tablets on flights from the Middle East to the United States and Britain has gone into into effect.

Passengers were told to stash their electronics on direct flights to the UKfrom Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon, Jordan and Saudi Arabia on Saturday.

They described the ban as a 'hassle' and claimed boarding was a 'massive, slow process' as airport employees were checking all carry-on luggage.

Laptops, iPads, Kindles and game consoles have been outlawed from hand luggage on services into Britain from those six countries amid fears terrorists have perfected a new type of airline bomb.

A military aircraft is any fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft that is operated by a legal or insurrectionary armed service of any type.

Military aircraft can be either combat or non-combat:

Combat aircraft are designed to destroy enemy equipment using their own aircraft ordnance.

Combat aircraft are normally developed and procured only by military forces.

Non-combat aircraft are not designed for combat as their primary function, but may carry weapons for self-defense.

These mainly operate in support roles, and may be developed by either military forces or civilian organizations.
