Animals are abused, harrassed, and killed every day because as a society we have labeled them inferior creatures. Although there is a justice system in place to punish those who mistreat animals, it is far beneath what it should be. Animal abuse is punishable by leniant fines, mediocre sentences, and somethimes not punishable under certain circumstances. By signing this petition we will voice our demand to increase the fines, extend the prison sentences, and ensure that no crime is left unpunished.
