That's all we need are more laws to do stuff that we already have sufficnent laws. Animal cruelty is already illegal and has done very little to stop it. So that makes you think more laws will help ??? Its not the job of our police to protect the animals -- its eveyone's job. And when animal cruelty is found the perputrators are jailed for awhile and the animals taken away from them. What more could anyone want of our government ? For these reasons I refuse to sign that petition.

more idiot online petitions by kids who can't think for themselves and instead buy every screaming rant by PETA.

Their definition of "animal cruelty" is depriving animals of anything at all.
In fact their ultimate goal is the extermination of mankind in order to leave the planet to the animals who (in their ideology) are the "rightful owners" of the place.

Quick question: If they're really interested in protecting animals from any and all harm, how many of them have gone out to argue with the wolves that they (the wolves) shouldn't be hunting and eating deer, elk, moose, etc...?

They're all for seeing animals suffer terribly from wounds inflicted by predators and accidents, disease, starvation, extreme weather conditions.

But shooting that animal to relieve its suffering or taking it in and nursing it back to health is in their minds animal cruelty.

An animal that in the wild lives 2 years of constant hardship is in their mind better off than that same animal living 10 years as a family pet with never a care, a constant supply of healthy food and water, full medical plan, and maybe even a choice of willing mates.

hahahaha.. couldn't agree more
Let us think this thought in its most terrible form: existence as it is, without meaning or aim, and yet recurring inevitably, without a finale in nothingness—”eternal recurrence.”
