What an observation. Just because one in a million acted worst than an animal.

Idiot should've set him/herself on fire instead! What a time to be alive, I weep for humanity

I remember recently in UAE, a man fed a cat to his hungry dog. Video is there in YouTube. He got a one month municipal cleaner job as punishment. Will the culprit escape here?

Ghost Wednesday, 02 January 2019 07:19 PM

Of course he will. After several visits to courts with his lawyer making money he will be set free!!!

NOW WHO SHOULD WE CALL THE DOG.

Welcome to a country like no other ... the island of parasites. An act of cruelty and horrific in nature by utterly frustrated and mentally ill dumb ass. There are rescue groups all over the country why not give the dog away ? These PPL do not belong in a civilized society they belong six feet under next to a public septic tank.

Animal cruelty should be punishable by prison time! Bring in the law. Its high time this country needs it. There are poor animals out there in this country that are mistreated.

Mohamed Nazir Thursday, 03 January 2019 09:36 AM

Sam Thursday, 03 January 2019 07:42 PM

This is a country that drones on about loving kindness 24/7 365 days yet there HORRENDOUS savages...these kinds of barbarians should be eradicated....there is a petition on change.org to implement an animal welfare bill. If there is any kind person out there please go and sign it...it is time we stand up and speak for the voiceless...
