I don't understand it. Unfortunetly people see killing animals as lesser than killing a human being. I think it's on the same level, of killing someone's child.
First, I think my child is a bit more important than someone's pet rabbit.
Second, I don't know that the evidence on abusing animals then graduating to people is not biased.
Well we have define abuse. Hunting ,population managaement, eating meat is not abuse. Killing animals in a fashion that is slow or painfull is wrong. Bleeding to dead
is painless they say. This guy came into the place I worked with a massive wound
on his arm. He broke up a dog fight and his own dog bit him so he shot the dog in rage.
He told me he felt bad and wish he had not shot him. Anyway I did not feel the need to call the police or think this guy was dangerious to the public. But throwing a cat
in a fire to cause the cat to suffer and to make your girl friend suffer is the kinda guy who could kill a human in the future. Lets judge each case on its on it own.
