Recently I have recieved emails about animal rights and signing petitions to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. I have no problem signing petitions for good causes. Although, email petitions don't hold much legal ground considering I could easily go through the phonebook and make up my own list without having to send it to anyone.
Here is my problem, I received this email about 3 times in response to a horrible incident involving a dog and two teenagers. These teenagers treated this animal disgustingly and I got sick just reading the article. The possible sentence time was 6 months in jail and possible fines. I say good for the system. The bastards should be in jail and recieve fines. What they did was disgusting... So here comes my problem: the fact that I recieved an email that explained all this and how disgusting it was and how these kids should have done to them what they did to this dog and we should petition for animal abusers to get more jail time but yet we allow much worse things to happen to our own 'kind' with barely a bloody peep. We sit back and allow killing of men women and children, raping of women, etc. all over the world and we do not say a word. We do not have petitions out to send to get our government to get involved snd make some changes. We constantly allow our justice system to slap the hands of rapists and killers with the most minimal sentences possible... I really don't get it. When did it become more indecent to kill animals when people in society are killing LIKE animals?
