During the Middle Ages, two thirds of Europe were annihilated by the "Black Death"...
During that time, people, panicked and lead by their ignorant and fanatic priests, were killing cats en masse because they believed that the disease was brought by "The Devil" and cats were (of course, at the time) "The Devil's minions"...
What they did, in fact, was helping the disease spread all the more...
Why? Because the disease-causing bacteria were carried by fleas, who were riding rats...
And what do cats do? They hunt rats!... So, by killing cats they were helping the disease!...
Funny, huh?
Does this remind you something? Something recent?
I'll give you some hints: Recess, Climate Change, Capitalism...
You figure out the rest!...
