I don't think the squirrel has done anything to deserve a terrifying, violent death. How can anyone find humor in that?

We've just finished lecturing against the horrors of dog-fighting, yet somehow a squirrel doesn't deserve the same compassion (that we should extend to all living creatures)? Okay, maybe not cockroaches. But there's something sick about designing, constructing, and filming an elaborate killing machine, solely for amusement.
