Animal Cruelty Must STOP!!!

Animal Cruelty Must STOP!!!

Target:
Representative Mario diaz-balart
Sponsored by: 

Animal cruelty is a huge problem nationwide. They are abused and beaten to death everyday, starved and treated like a piece of garbage on the floor. It has gotten out of hand, and it must be stopped. Animals have feelings like you and me, and that I am positive about ; just ask your self, if you were an animal how would you like to be treated? Many people dont  care what happens to them, and it is time to change that.




I am asking for a minimum of 2 years in jail for someone who abuses mentally and physically an animal, and a minimum of 100,000 dollars bail bond. I know that if the government enforces this, the abusers will think about it twice before hurting another creature again.  




We need to make it clear that something like this is not accepteble. We have to put are foot down and say no to cruelty. I dont think that everyone understands my point of view but I know that many support my idea.i need everyones help, please tell your friends about this situation and how they could make a difference, pass the word about this and other petitions, and dont give up. 

our pets have been here for us giving love and showing loyalty, and now it is the time we make a safer future for them including the wild ones too.

Help us Stop Animal Cruelty for once!!!

We believe that you can help us make a difference. no person who abuses an animal should get away with it, and should pay for what they have done, in a way that would make them understand that Animal Cruelty is wrong.


People who commit such a crime should serve at leats five or more years in jail. and for murdering animals there should be no bail bonds. Most of the time they get away with the crime.


We hope you take our letter in to consideration, and that you understand what we are trying to do. Thank you so much for taking your time to read this, and letting us have a voice for those who can't.

The punishment of someone who abuses on an animal should be as severe as abuse on children and elderly. Anytime someone can intentionally hurt anything living thing that is weaker than them should be severely punished.

I totally agree and support you. I dont understand these people who hurt animals in any way or just use them as a cosmetic addition to their status without being resonsible enough. If a human is abused te law protects them why not animals. They are more than mans best friend they are loving companions who ive all just for a bit of love and affection.

My dog has been a better friend to me than most humans I know. Please stop this insane cruelty and think how lucky we are that they want to be our friends. They don't judge, torment, torture or abuse us, so why does this kind of thing still go on? I have no idea. Please stop.

My belief is all who abuse, starve and torture any animal, no matter how big or small should receive a grave and long sentence for what they did. Or do to them as they did to the helpless, mute animals.

People who torture animals will torture and kill your child! They should be eliminated from society. I vote for stronger laws for animals cruelty! If you look at the history of many serial killers you will see that they started torturing and murdering animals first and then were confident enough to torture children and women. Let us fight for the meek and helpless in society and give them a voice and stamp out animal murder and torture!

People who abuse animals are cowards. It looks like they would find something better to do with their time but I think that since they are such big cowards, they can't find any thing else they do what they are capible of doing.

The laws are simply not strong enough especially in the case of truly sadistic torture and cruelty.

Its a proven fact that serial killers started out killing and torturing animals,The same is true of abusive people ,if they are abusive to helpless animals then it can escalate to abuse of children and so on. By making animal abuse a felony you are sending the message that cruelty will not be tolerated of helpless and innocent creatures.

With due respect, it is now time to keep our sacred vows shared with the Native American people in the nineteenth century. We, these United States of America, made a vow to act as stewards on behalf of the Indian Tribes: to care for the land, and all the creatures upon the land. We either forgot we promised that, or we were lying during those meetings. We are betraying our sacred word with all the peoples of this land, and all the creatures on this land. We swore to protect AND defend our beautiful country! We will rue the day we turned our back upon our promises. You may have forgotten, but take this to any bank still opened for business: Our Creator has a far better memory than we do when we promise something -- and lied. ~Peace~
