whats wrong with our country? -wtf topic

[Merrydeath]

I'm not even going to try to pretend to know why someone would do this, and to an innocent animal!

Even if you arent a cat person, ANY animal that died this way would be wrong.. I"m all for tossing the book at this woman and trying her as an adult.

That is absolutely appalling. Too bad they can't do the same thing to her... even just a little while, so she could feel the pain and agony. It's teens like this that give me little hope for our future.

This sort of crime is doubly disturbing because such cruelty to animals is often an indicator of much worse to come. Many serial killers claim that they got their starts using animals as their victims, them moved up to larger prey. Sick, evil and very, very dangerous.

[LadyBrower]

That's nauseating and infuriating. I don't understand how a human being could do that to an animal. I have two cats of my own, and a stray that hangs out near the back door for an occasional meal (not to mention my dog and bunny). If anyone ANYONE did anything to my animals (even the stray that's not mine) I would hurt them... I would put that girl in the oven myself. UGH.

Obviously, the girl has some serious issues, having been able to do that to a kitten and trash a home that badly.

[Commodore Swab]

The fact that it was an innocent kitten and not a cat makes it even worse.

The words I wish to use about this cannot be posted here.

OMG- I just cried! That's just horrible!!!!

I have seven cats, all healthy thank goodness.

[Rogue Mermaid]

That is absolutely horrible.

This would be an excellent situation for a judge to "make and example of someone" and seriously throw the book at this sick bastard. Maybe if people were punished more harshly for animal cruelty some idiot couldn't call it "just a joke" and brush it off.

Ok I knew that I shouldn't have clicked the link....but against my better judgement, I did. And now I'm in tears. We have 3 fur babies....and I couldn't imagine someone doing this to my Tonks...she's that important to me.

There isn't a harsh enough punishment for people who do crap like this. There is NO excuse for torturing and killing an animal...especially a defenseless kitten.

[Red-Handed Jill]

She's more than old enough to truly realise what she was doing. I'd venture to say she's a psychopath and as such, not fixable.

I say throw her in the deepest part of the amazonian jungle and see how well she fares against the big cats... At least she would be of some use to something.

That's why I still haven't clicked into the link. I get the gist, but I don't want to know the details. I would end up like Kate, in tears, looking at my five little furbies, who are spoiled rotten and loved to distraction, and wondering how anyone could even think of doing something so hideous, let alone actually do it.

That girl is seriously disturbed...

[Merrydeath]

thank you all.. I was sure there were more tender hearts around.

Last year, she pushed a BB pistol against a woman's head and threatened her. She wanted the womans' dog..

strike 2..

[Black Syren]

definitely locked away...

[Ransom]

Considering that she's already pointed a gun at someone's head, even if it was a BB gun, I don't think she should be allowed a strike 3. Number three might be someone dying from a real gunshot wound. She's obviously mentally disturbed and should be in an institution where, hopefully, she might get some help.

What this young woman and her accomplice did was deliberate to intimidate and terrorize the victim- Valerie Hernandez. Which is exactly the same style of crime she did one year before to another victim. The cat cooking while a criminal issue, isn’t the primary issue. The issue is that this person wants to intimidate and terrorize people. She needs to be removed from society quickly and permanently IMO. Of course, the system’s response has been to immediately let this dangerous criminal back out on bail.

As to her “joke” comment. That’s her way of saying “Fu*K You, you aren’t worthy to get the real answer from me, so piss off”. It’s also a response that says, “No matter what you do to me I don’t care, because I am tougher than you.” It has nothing to do with her actually think her actions were a joke, it’s being hurled as an insult. So, that very response points to the core attitude of this person. It’s a strong indicator that she is a sociopath.

From the article I ask:

1- Is there a gang tie in?

2- This is the second Latino she has attacked in this fashion; shouldn’t the state be charging her with a sentence increasing hate crime? This crime smacks of 1930’s Nazi Brown Shirt thuggery and should be treated as such IMO.

3- Why is a 17 year old living on her own? Cliched but still true, where are the parents?

4- Based on the crime of the previous year, why the devil is she walking around free to begin with? How could that last year crime have resulted in probation when she had a record of violence against people? No wonder this witch says, you can’t touch me, because we don’t!

Her conduct leads me to one conclusion- People are actually going to die if this woman is not stopped and stopped quickly.

You have to wonder how often stuff like this happens that doesn't get reported. (I'll bet it's several orders of magnitude.) Some people need professional help controlling their emotional responses.

However, I think this topic should be titled, "What's wrong with some people?" not "What's wrong with our country?"

"But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg... Isn't this an indictment of our entire American Society? Well, you can do what you want to us, but we are not going to sit here and listen to you bad-mouth the United States of America! Gentlemen!" -Eric Stratton

[Christine]

That horrible bitch should be tortured and see what it likes to be cooked in an oven. An eye for an eye!

As to what Mission said, "You have to wonder how often stuff like this happens that doesn't get reported" the disturbing thing is crap like this happens all the time. Many times during Halloween the police urge people to keep their cats inside, especially black cats because screwed up people were killing them. In other countries there's a f*cked up fetish where it's sexy for a screwed up bitch in high heels to step on a kitten to death. A person is pure evil if they can do horrible things to an innocent animal that cannot defend itself. The world is flippin' screwed up and many innocent animals and people are suffering from it.

*goes to hug her 2 kitties and protect them from horrible people*

If I may suggest a course of action for those who want to do something about such issues. Indignation is a nice indulgence, but it won't help solve the problem.

Your local branch would probably love getting food, litter and other supplies as well. They're usually staffed by good people with a worthwhile, but underfunded cause.

[Cheeky Actress]

I am appalled at the ability of these types of people.

It just shows you that there are malicious individuals out there that don’t give a damn about the value of life.

Experts say that these creatures who demonstrate such behavior, lead to more serious levels of violence, (aka start small then work up to bigger kills – like your neighbor or your brother).

I hope that creature get EVERYTHING they deserve.

I am applauded at the ability of these types of people.

Spell check is not anybody's friend. I think you meant appalled.

However, if by applauded you are suggesting a desire that this woman suffer from the clap, I would not argure with that postion.

[Cheeky Actress]

Crap!...yes....thank you Graydog.

[Lady Cassandra Seahawke]

I have my own totally spoiled furbaby... If anyone hurt Squeeky I would so go off on them...

that said...my thought is that BITCH needs to be locked away for life, because as many has stated she is heading to do some major damage to someone. She is able to do that to a small kitten ...what if it had been a chiild there and she wanted to vent her anger out? NO!!!!

She needs to be locked away for life cause I fear that this is just the tip of an iceberg of what is yet to come.
