POLL: Who wants animal cruelty to stop forever?

Star if you are with me! And tell me your thoughts on animal cruelty!

Animal loving softie :-)

<------------------------

Update:

Have you guys heard of that moron who's mutilating cats in South Florida? Isn't that terrible? Give me your thoughts on that as well!

People like that make me sick! I almost cried when I read about all of those poor kitties!

Update 2:

@ Prayer Worker:

Yeah I'm not talking about farm animals and stuff, I'm talking about how cats and dogs and other animals are starved and beaten every day! It's awful!

Update 3:

@ What The Deuce:

You need to get your facts straight. I do NOT only care for the cutesy animals, I care about all animals. What I meant was, those animals have an extremely large population and they are bred to be eaten. People try to do this as humanely as possible, and we need to eat meats to live. I AM AWARE that horses and goats and many other animals are molested everyday and I hope that that stops as well. I said that I don't like how they have to kill animals so that we can eat them, and I know that farm animals are molested and I care deeply for all animals. I didn't say I didn't care, I said that I feel it's essential to breed some animals so we can consume them. They are very careful about how many they kill, and I want them to watch the number of livestock they kill. I'm talking about cows and pigs that they kill, I think it's very wrong for those animals to be killed in a cruel way, and I care about all other farm animals.

Think before you shoot your mouth off.

Update 4:

Haha, you're telling me to get my facts straight and here you are making accusations and calling me ignorant. I have no problem with you voicing your opinion. What I do have a problem with is you calling me ignorant.

I don't take crap like that.

    I'm with you. I hate animal cruelty. It saddens me whenever I hear about animals being abused and mistreated. Just because they can't talk doesn't mean they don't have feelings.

    I've heard about those poor cats in South Florida. I hope they find whoever's doing it soon and lock him behind bars.

    I have mixed feelings about animal cruelty. I am all for stopping cruelty when it comes to drowning kittens and clubbing seals, and beating doggies. But not so much when it comes to swatting the biting flies, poisoning the fleas on my dog and burning lime disease carrying dear tics off of my kids legs...

    As long as there are different definitions of cruelty, not everyone will ever be happy.

    I'd like to see such a day - but the wild animals refuse to get on board.

    So there will always be animal cruelty, and most of it will (as is true now, and has been from time immemorial) be perpetrated by other (non-human) animals.

    I like how you feel bad for all the ''cutesey animals'' but pay no mind to all the other animals wich get mutilated and harmed every single day.. .

    the ignorance

    now i know its cruel what they are doing and your question was meant with good intent, but just the way you disregarded animals like farm animals saying/agreeing with prayer worker they are bread for that purpose well they should not be , and there should deffinatley not be a bias in protecting or caring for something based on wether it is cute and cuddelly

    but yes i do agree animal cruelty should deffinatley stop

    humans are animals to, were all just the same, just because we can read and write doesnt make us of any higher importance

    EDIT; Ok listen i did not go ''shooting my mouth of'' Nor did i mean my comment to be taken with offence, I simpley commented on what i was seeing, if you actually read what i wrote i said i know you meant your comment with good intent and that i AGREE. So i think you need to take your own advice and think about what i actually wrote, IT IS MY OPINION that NO animal should be killed even if in a humaine way to meet the needs of human beings who are infact animals themselves, and i do believe if a human kills another human they get arrested? so why not the same if a human kills anything. This shows how highley humans place themselves in rank with anything else

    SO, dont have a go at me for simply expressing my opinion, if you get your facts straight you would have seen i was protesting against the point ''prayer worker'' made, and how you agreed which >I< found wrong, but i still agreed with you on the fact that animal cruelty was wrong.

    Source(s): have a good day .

    Yeah definately. All animals are precious, even the ones we may not like as much personally- they all have a reason for being on this earth.

    God gave us different kinds of animals for different purposes and i believe what your talking about below is cruel because i love cats but if your talking using horses for roping cattle and rodeos and such then i say NO because they are being treated better then you think and cows were breed for eating, same thing for sheep and pigs and..well you see my meaning.

  • Only sadists want animals hurt... and I hate sadists. I love all animals and animal cruelty should never have started!

    I think it should never have been started. I'm not a crazy animal lover but I hate to see things in pain and animals and/or people hurt. Cruelty in general should just stop....... FOREVER!!! (ever) (ever) (ever) *echoes*
