Oh, I am also pretty sure that those pictures will be removed. If a PHOTOSHOPPED cat-in-half is removed, open thigh wound gotta go.
...
It wasn't in half and it wasn't shopped.
But you know our dear admin himself posted a picture of a
decapitated animal (yea, snake, but still an animal), so I don't think the rules are so strickt. It is just how people respond to the pictures.
PS:
I would not give a s**t if someone posted a picture of a mutilated human corpse with a ripped off head and a log in the rectum, but that's just me.
