Boy, did I have a VERY rude awakening. I think the greatest insult to pay anyone is to tell them to stop acting like a human, because animals certainly DON'T do things like this. Certain people DO NOT care about the sanctity of life - animals and people alike, and I am not just talking about South Africa. It is a worldwide pandemic (yes - I mean pandemic - which means something that affects the world - and cruelty is a very, very insiduous and very disturbing trend.) Cruelty cannot be a sickness, because SOOOO many people do it because they enjoy it, or they just couldn't give a &)(*&) about the hurt that they cause. The police have a job to do, not just protecting the people of our country, but the animals as well. That is why there is an Animal Protection Act. This is a law and they are there to enforce it, and if they don't, that means that they are not doing the job that they are paid to do. In the normal world (certainly in my job), if you don't do what you are paid to do, you get FIRED !!!!!! FIRE THESE SOB's AND GET POLICE IN THAT CAN DO THE JOB !!! The penalties (fines and jail time) are not nearly harsh enough. They must be increased tenfold, and the punishments MUST be carried out. The message must get out there that this is MOST CERTAINLY not acceptable.

So much cruelty and so few to try and prevent and curb it. I wonder when it will ever stop - I fear never and if we keep trying it MUST make a difference - even if only small.
