Bipartisan bill seeks to make animal cruelty a federal felony

this is a good thing, my friends!

 

[Indeependent]

I’m on board with that.
Torture an animal and eventually you’ll go full psycho on humans.

 

[Oddball]

Um, no....The state courts do a good enough job....No need to bring the feds in and grow The State even bigger.

 

[Fang]

I approve of this.

 

[basquebromance]

Let’s speak the truth that too many unarmed black men and women are killed. And too many Black and brown Americans are locked up. From mass incarceration to cash bail to policing, our criminal justice system needs drastic repair.

Did you just high jack your own thread?

Dumbest shit I've heard!

Indeed. I was just about to say the same. We have too many things that are federal felonies which create double jeopardy. Unless the crime crosses state lines, it is none of the Feds' business.

Except PETA and other Marxist dupes will consider steak as animal cruelty.

WHOOPS!

Will it be safer to come home and kick the kid instead of the dog after a bad day at work?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

What a slippery slope this would be if it became law.
You could then say that slaughtering animals to eat, could in itself constitute cruelty.

 

[Moonglow]

Missouri passed a bill similar and consider that if your dog gets into a fight with another dog they can charge you with animal cruelty.

No it is not.

Every state has more than adequate laws to forbid animal cruelty

More will not help and is nothing more than government overreach

All you are allowed to do anymore is kick yerself.(soon to be outlawed, and no picking of der nose either)

I just said that.

So they are animals is what you are saying.

Forgive me if a I don't recognize PETA's moral authority after the news about how they euthanize animals and actually BBQed a dog.

Yes, but my post is more sophisticated.

BigBeef pork & chicken might weigh in on that before it reaches Trump’s desk.

It’s cruel to do feed lots & butcher. In related news, a Bill is introduced to make the price of meat rise to $100/ lb over night.
