animal cruelty..please sign petition
i posted a thread last week about a dog in my area who had been brutally tortured and left to die. She lost her battle and the man who so viciously attacked her was caught. PLease sign this petition to see that he gets the maximum punishment allowed for what he did. I will include links for those who would like to read about Mercy and her fight and also a link to the petition.

For Mercy's sake http://www.operationkindness.org/

1. I live in the Dallas area, too.
And I was so disappointed that she passed away. I don't think the max allowed is even close to what I would do to him, but I'll gladly sign the petition just to make sure they make it as harsh as they can.

Were you able to attend the memorial service? A lot of people care!

4. i couldn't go
because I had to work. I donated to OK though and plan to from now on even if it's a small amount. I have read many of the stories and my daughter works for a Vet who participates in rescue efforts but this story stuck with me so. I was amazed at the public outpour of affection for Mercy.

3. You may want to crosspost this in the pets and veg/ar groups
There are a lot of people in those who would sign this and help to keep it kicked in GD.

6. I'm amazed and sickened by what people can do
not only to animals but to other people. I'd really like to know the thought processes or lack thereoff in people that can do this kind of thing and then sleep at night. I think the wiring just isn't right.

7. I totally agree but why isn't the punishment as stiff
for animal cruelty cases. I really don't think that a few months in jail or a fine is going to deter this type of behavior.

12. It's maddening because many times these animal abusers
get off with just a small fine and a slap on the wrist.

15. Just Signed It; Very Important
Just signed it, with comment, "These things need to be treated as violent crimes against a victim, because this is what they are." Disgusting. Burn in Hell, you horrible bastard, where the dog can pee on you from above.

17. Animal abuse laws need to be strengthened and ENFORCED in all states!
As my bumper sticker says, " People Who Abuse Animals -- Rarely Stop There"

Sociopathic fucks like this need to be majorly slapped with jail time. I'll bet you this isn't the first victim of this bastard's violence, it's just the first time he got caught. And anyone who would inflict torture like this on an animal wouldn't hesistate to do the same to his fellow humans, particularly those he would consider weaker than himself or more vulnerable, like women and children.

K&R for this thread!

18. Have you heard about this recent story in Tampa?



Link: http://www.tbo.com/news/metro/MGB89U78OME.html?imw=Y



A man was arrested as a repeat offender for shooting neighborhood dogs and for having put out dog food mixed with anti-freeze for them to eat. Several animals have died horrible deaths.

20. I signed the petition. I am just sick after reading about Mercy.
Edited on Tue May-02-06 03:22 PM by AndyA
I just can't understand how people can do this to sweet, innocent animals.

God bless Mercy, she's in a better place safe from harm now.

Kicked and recommended.
