This is one of my most despised things ever I hate animal cruelty. The things I have read seen and heard have greatly disturbed and angered me, like the dog meat trade where animals are torched in ways I will not say, animals set alight and other extremly disturbing things I have read about my opinion of punishment is whatever they do to the animals should be done to them. This may be a bit drastic but ithis is how against it I am. What is your option on punishment.

I do think that there should be more laws/punishments against animal cruelty. Like you said, people can do really disturbing and horrible things to animals, and not be punished by it. I don't know how extreme we should go, but I definitely think that animal cruelty should not be overlooked as much as it is.

Just knowing that a crime is punishable by law would be enough to stop a lot of people, so even if making certain things law doesn't stop the entire world it would at least make a difference for the best.

I feel the law between human and animal should be the same in the UK and worldwide, once a man left his cows and horses dying in there own muck. They found one standing up, dead. he was banned from keeping animals for five years, and sent to prison for 6 months.

I would of banned him from Animals for life, and a good 15 year prison sentance.

If I see anyone being cruel to animals, I just become cruel to them.

Definitely, we should have tight(er) laws against this, worldwide. I don't think you'll really find much of anyone on BS who thinks otherwise.

Humans' cruelty never ceases to amaze & disgust me :/ Ever heard of this one (no graphic images or anything, but a very disturbing article)? ; http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/200 ... -dog_N.htm
Absolutely sick.

Anyway... IMO, I think anyone responsible for the murder of an animal should get a hefty jail sentence, at least; I mean, I heard of this case where a guy actually -deliberately- took his neighbor's cat and killed it - I can't remember if it was shot or beaten, possibly both. I believe he went to jail for it, but only for a few months... IMO, it should've been several -years-. Even if you happen to be someone who doesn't think too highly of animals, you can't deny that anyone who deliberately causes such harm (let alone death) isn't good for society as a whole. Most serial killers and such started off 'small', torturing animals, before moving on to people. These people should get some serious counseling in addition to fines/imprisonment/what have you...

I saw on the news today that a cat had been caged and shot 27 times with an air rifle. They assume that it was some sort of sick joke or game and wanted to watch it suffer. Amazingly, the cat lived, despite being shot in the neck, the head, the chest and 24 other places. It was a pet cat as well, not that that makes it much worse.

It literally sickens me how people could be so cruel. The worst part is they don't actually know who did it so they can't actually punish them yet. I... I can't even explain how disgusted I am by cruel acts like this.

i'm not a big fan of animal cruelty either and i have experienced it with my two owns eyes before.. but i was young so i didn't know what to do.... anwyas, i don't think we're allowed to make topics where people are just going to storm and yell and start a whole mad frenzy... reporting topic.

Well, you know what has happened (quite) recently that made me so angry I almost chewed my lip off?

We all know how Steve Irwin, the famous Astralian wildlife expert, zookeper, TV show presenter, conservationist and loving father, died- he was stung in the heart by a stingray in The Great Barrier Reef whilst filming the amazing creatures . Merely days after his death had been publicised, I remember hearing on the news that some stingrays had been found on the beaches of Queensland, obviously killed cruelly by men and with their tails cut off.Now, if Steve Irwin was alive, how do you think he would rect to this news? ...Steve loved animals. He would have hated the people who killed the stingrays.

And the thing that makes me really angry is that I expected something like this was going to happen. I knew that there would be some kind of "vengeful act" upon the poor stingrays. Is that what Steve would have wanted???

NO!!!!

Stupid, stupid people.....

In my opinion,they should put through just as bad punisments,not only to give them how it feels,but also as a warning to others.It's in this matter that we could really use Alkatraz back.

Also,I seen some of this stuff in real life so if you want to know it,pleas PM me since I can't really bring myself to put it in a topic.


As do I

I'd just report them to a Park Ranger,or a Zoologist.

The orher thing I hate is dog fighting . What the people do to the poor dogs like letting them die by bleeding to death, I hate it

Lets see 'great humans' get stuck in cage and get tossed around. Lets how they feel about it.



I hate dog hate dog fighting too, people just think human are the only smart ones. I think humans are pretty stupid.

Now, a few of you may or may not know what I want to be when i'm older. But for thoes who don't, I want to be a Labour/BNP MP, and try to get into the high ranks of the party I choose, and give HARDER punishments for people who kill non-humanitive animals, then thoes who kill humans.

That's completely irrational in so many ways.

Conay, are you saying you want to give HARDER punishment to people who hurt/kill animals thatn HUMANS? Because if that is so, then that is comepletely ridiculous.

And I for one, also, hate animal cruelty. In fact, I do not know, personally, anyone that likes it. And I'm betting no one on this entire site likes it. I think it is stupid and wrong. All most animals want is peace and to be loved (pets that is). So why should we hurt them?

I think humans and animals should be treated equally.

If we were an animal than we would see how disrespect humans are and want more respect form them.
