I was in my supermarket today, the local newspaper was on display. Front page news being somebody had tied a female staffy up,doused her in petrol and set her alight.This all happened in a local park.Despite the efforts of local passers by the dog had to be put to sleep.I was literally moved to tears over this story, and have felt sick to the pit of my stomach thinking of the suffering this poor creatured endured.As I write this I am looking into the eyes of my beautiful dog, and thinking what sort of person can be so wicked to another living being.Words cannot describe my views on these utter scumballs I only hope that "what goes around comes around", and they themselves are subjuct to a similar ordeal. I cannot stop thinking about this poor dog and have been nearly in tears all morning. What vile characters there are within our society.

perpertrators of animal cruelty should be treated extremely harshly by eh justice sysemte.

but i don't think doing the same torture/ cruelty to them is apprpopraiate

what makes that violence more excusable?

i can't wish toruture/cruelty/death on perpertrators of animal cruelty or towards humans. the justice system is not just based on punishment and retribution, ther eis rehabilitation in there too and more violence helps no-one

What about those who can't be rehabilitated? persistent offenders? lethal injection - that way, they wont do it again and they don't have to live a relatively easy life at tax payers expense

no, i absolutely don't agree with the death penalty for many , many reasons.

Not only do I mean it when I say that I hope the perpetrators die in the same fashion, I'd be more than willing to carry the task out too.

May they rot in hell and may that poor dog run free wherever she is now.
