If it's pest control/extermination than it should be done by the most efficient means possible. These guys are taking joy in death, not joy because they have meat to feed themselves, joy because they are living out some soldier fantasy they've cooked up in their heads.

Hunting/Pest control/extermination is not sadism, do not make the mistake of confusing the two.
