I'm curious if you can elaborate on, "they're living creatures, shouldn't we care?".
No, because I'm not saying that is a position I personally hold. I'm merely presenting it as a position that I know that (some) people do hold.
My position here is, roughly speaking, "this (intentionally injuring mice or other animals) is an issue where there is a legit discussion to be had around the ethics of same." Of course I have my own opinion, but I don't really care to get into it. I just didn't think that the parent poster needed to be downvoted for raising the question.
