I think you should concentrate on the joke more rather than looking into morality issues of a fake bird being crused....this is intended as a joke and should be seen as such...I rest my case!

But then that is just the point. I don't find the idea of cruelty to animals to be amusing. I know the animal in question wasn't real, but that still doesn't make me think it is any funnier. It takes the idea of killing a defenceless animal and puts it forward as a joke. The animal may not be real, but when I watch it makes me think of that being done to a real animal. Either way I don't find it terribly funny or clever.

By you saying this your suggesting that by me actually seeing the joke/Humour in this that i actually i find animal cruelty amusing?...I am as much against animal cruelty as you are...Not for one second could ever imagine a real bird or indeed any other creature (even a frog
)in that scenario...I was actually laughing the whole way through that clip...Its about time someone stood up against these crappy ringtones!

I didn't say that you did or even suggest such a thing, the inference is your own.
I can see the where the joke is supposed to be and I can't say that I am a huge fan of such ringtones, but I just don't think that this was particuarly funny or appropriate.
I'm not judging others if they think it is funny, after all it isn't a real animal. Personally I find it to be in rather poor taste.

Well thats fine that you think that this is poor taste i don't think it is,and i'm sure the vast majority will see the funny side of this and not concentrate on the supposidly animal cruelty aspect.

I think I do have rather a twisted sense of humour sometimes! I was wondering too if the 'terrorist' aspect would get some people up in arms too - but it hasn't.
This particular clip is pretty close to the bone - but then again that's how I like my humour!

I find this topic turning in to a matter of taste in humor.
Personally I find the "joke" a wee bit OTT and have to agree with Scotty and the others who sent me PMs about this video clip.
When I click on the link I get straight to the Windows Media Player with no indication, what so ever, that the chicken, wich is clearly alive when the guy hold it up to the camera, are being swopped with a dummy. So, to me this whole thing looked real before I read the rest of the topic.
I've been asked, by several members, to remove the topic but choose to lock it instead.
