Aliens! Aliens I say!

According to the BBC:

The wife of murdered Nairn banker Alistair Wilson has described his killer as "not human".
"I cannot even call the person responsible a human being, because I can't understand how a human being would do this," she added.

Presumably murdered by some kind of crab.

Or possibly a goat.

I like crabs. They're cute.

People make out that they're sinister murderous alien things, but I think they're nice :-)

Yes the old "they are not human" argument is so disturbing on so many levels. Apart from anything else, it's a serious denial of reality. Of course human beings behave like that, and attempting to reclassify them does not address the issue of why they do, and (more importantly) how to stop them.
