Oh man...
Guy getting his house set ablaze by a mouse... I don't know who to feel sorry for! That guy lit a very clever mouse on fire and killed it. It was only trying to get back at him for its last instances of life.
Then again, the guy is 81 and probably in deep regret and sorrow right now.
But the mouse couldn't do nothing and let itself die..
Then again, a mouse shouldn't have...
Bah! This could keep going, I'm showing my parents!

This is going into gruesome detail to a degree, so don't read if easily offended, but I'd like to put my feelings on the story on the record.
What would you do, if you were just thrown into a fire? Bear in mind, that as something so small, it'd be suffering immense pain on such a high scale. Surely you'd want to ruin the life of the person who gave you this hell? You have probably 20 minutes of agonising pain to suffer before your body decided it could take no more, because as something so small, you couldn't do anything to put it out but head for the nearest small space. Just so happens the small space was under the windowledge of this old man's house.
Thats how I look at it. Payback, on a huge scale.

if I was thrown into a fire I would light the person on fire. the way I see it,human life is more importaint then a mouse's,that old guy has nothing now and most of you think about how it was revenge. *shames again* sure it was but once again,old dude have nada.

Not how minds really work though. When you're actually in that kind of violent pain, the last thing on your mind would be payback.
Its just a matter of instinct. The mouse ain't thinking of getting its own back, nor was it being smart. Its doing nothing more than trying to run away from the pain by running to what it considers safety, ie its home. It doesn't comprehend that such a feat is impossible.
Even with a human, you'd not be thinking "You've set me on fire, I'll get my own back." You're a little bit preoccupied with "omfg I'm on FIRE!" Thoughts of revenge or anger come afterwards, when the initial pain is over and you're left to lick your wounds.

Oh yeah, I heard some of this on the radio a couple days ago. It was in the radio station in the morning. Although, they never mentioned that the guy was 81 years old... or maybe they did (I wasn't thinking about it 'cause I was getting ready for school at the time). What a tragic way to have your life ended.

Most animals can't even reason anyway.

Karmamuch indeed. Gotta feel sorry for both of them. The old man for losing everything, and the mouse for landing with such a stupid jerk, typical redneck... However...

poor guy,and at 81 too. For those who felt sorry for the mouse. *shames* -_-() why feel sorry for something that doesn't matter much when a old guy just lost every thing he owned,a mouse has nothing to lose. how can u be soo heartless?? if u WANT to kill a mouse u can brake its neck, not trow it aleave at a fire ( misce hawe feelings to u know? but i hawe to admit its kinda funny to '' whats wrong with me?? ''

Mice have feelings? Hardly. Mice have instincts and reactions.
Feel sorry for the mouse? ... No, I'd never feel sorry for it. Other people can, if they want to, though. ^_^;; It just sort of annoys me when people go as far as humanizing them.
I actually found the story rather amusing. I like fire. I sort of do feel sorry for the old guy, though. Losing everything at such an age has got to suck; what with how working for it all back being pretty much impossible.
