Got rage?

There’s no excusing this away. And I cannot believe the sentiments I’ve read stating that he somehow shouldn’t even get jail time.

This. This situation right here. THIS is when someone especially SHOULD get jail time for animal cruelty. Period.

Animal cruelty is illegal for a reason, and this falls squarely into the “you get jail for this” box. No questions asked.

In fact, he wasn’t even merely “cruel” to the animal… He. Freaking. Killed it. So, if this joker gets off with a slap on the wrist, it’ll make a mockery of the system.

Now, I’m not some animal-rights wacko myself: I eat meat, LOVE leather, kill rodents, and am fine with the fact animals just die in general…

So, I honestly think that big picture-wise, killing a kitty does not equal killing a human, therefore it should not carry the same punishment.

But a case like this, jailtime should be mandatory, not just a last resort.

And it goes beyond him “merely” ceasing the life of a helpless animal; people do that everyday as their JOB so other people can eat and have fancy shoes.

He did it cruelly. He did it out of anger. He did it for an unbelievably petty reason. And it is absolutely not that he “just” killed a kitten: This sets the stage for him to do bigger and badder things, if he isn’t already abusing the g/f and/or her kids as it is.

Aperture Science.

Mess with the fans, because we can

For the good of all our stocks

Except the ones in the red.

Now there’s no sense crying over every bait and hook

They’ll just keep on trying every tease in the book

And the games will get done

around Twenty-Twenty-One

For the people who are…

… Still alive.
