Icon9 Disgusting act of cruelty

http://www.ntnews.com.au/news/northe...7cb41c6826cf54

This is just plain cruel and nasty, I certainly hope they catch the culprits.

Disgusting doesn't even begin to cover this. Why would anyone want to do anything this nasty and inflict pain and suffering on any living creature. It appears now that Pearly and another horse were shot together as they were buddies.

Quote: Ms Davidge said Hollywood and Pearly were best mates and were likely together when they were shot.

Sadly, Pearl had to be put down.

So annoying that the person, although only 17, isn't even going to appear in court, some justice system!!

Since 2 much loved horses I would say "not much", I don't know, it might depend on the State, certainly it is against the law to harm a native/protected animal.

I just wonder - did that person break the law and if so, what does the law prescribe?

No end to the acts of cruelty to animals and humans.


Slightly different subject..

There was a hit and run around my way a few weeks ago, a woman in her 70's was knocked down and died on the spot while the culprit drove off and is still at large. Hope the police find the person.


Back on subject..

Laws in the UK on animal cruelty are a wash out but I hear they maybe toughening up by how much who can tell.

I hope they watch these individuals. Cruelty to animals can lead to humans.

As a YMCA asst. camp horse director(of 20 rescued horses) at age eighteen myself-I thinks a seventeen year old should be made to 'pony up' and learn the arrow of his ways: he should be given the 'Sebastian' treatment...with arrows dipped in horse dung for good measure.

Having to put the horse down seems extreme given the animal was still able to stand. A case of not wanting to spend the money on an expensive operation maybe?

I feel such a pain when I read stuff like this.

I don't like violence or to harm other people or animal.

I do sometime start remembering what my dad use to tell me

My fathers story:
"When I was young and I did something which wasn't so clever, I knew I would get red strips on my behind from my fathers belt."

I felt some kind of disgusting when I heard these stories. ´cause violent have never solved problems

However I have to confessed that I, when reading these stories, feel that a god old beating would maybe learn these people to behave, but I only feel this a little bit.

Yet you visit a forum about making people drown slowly by torpedoing the ship that they are on?

To take a young innocent is not right. Domesticated animals are just that. But, some young are not so innocent.

You are comparing game (s) that although predicated on things that in really happened to acts of cruelty in real life. There is no comparison.



Markus didn't say anything wrong.
