I'd like 5 minutes alone with the man with a note from a judge giving me legal immunity.
 
I can't believe that! Totally heartbreaking to me. Hope she fully recovers.
 
How about signing the petition to advance the domestic violence bill in the state? I guess it's cooler to worry about a dog's rights than a woman's rights in this state.

Sorry I offended you taking up for an innocent, voiceless animal. I must have missed in my post where I said sign this petition, but don't sign the one about domestic violence. You need to relax.

Well. here's a possibility - you can "worry" about both. Seriously, how does signing a petition about an abused dog preclude you from wanting to see stronger domestic violence laws in this state? And how is either cool? Just go back to bed.
 
I agree Bong! Supporting one doesnt mean you dont support the other. Not hard to figure it out. If he did that to one of my boys it wouldnt work out well for him.

Your name says it all. Get out of bed.

Actually the issues are the same. It has been proven that animal abusers are. Also violent to people.

Anyone that can make a person (man or woman) or animal suffer don't deserve rights. Laws should be mandatory and enforced, not suggestions to live by.

Abusive people are cowards in life and should be punished to the full extent of the law in all cases.

It is amazing how much Facebook and other online sites value animal rights above human rights.

Shoot an unarmed citizen - no big deal.

Convicted of Animal cruelty - worst offense on the planet.

Don't get me wrong - People who abuse animals deserve the highest possible punishment. But it's sad that we have been conditioned to accept abuse/violence/murder of people.
 
Please don't take this wrong. I read the story, and this man needs to be punished..no argument there. However, I know some lunatics who are so concerned with animal rights and pet abuse that they have no concern whatsoever for suffering and abused children all over the world. When people put the welfare of common animals over the welfare of other human beings, then we truly know which are the "sick puppies."

I don't think anyone is putting the animal above people. I think we have just become desensitized to the suffering of other people.

Earthquakes that killed thousands recently received less "social" press than this case.

We are used to people abusing other people and it's lessened our care to be aware.

Unfortunately, in time, we will be desensitized to cruelty against animals as well.

Is it really that hard for some of you to comprehend that you can be against the animal abuse and against human abuse at the same time? It's not like you're required to pick one or the other to care about. If the OP said, "Ignore the plight of human victims and sign this petition for an abused dog," you might have a point. But he/she didn't. So all the complaints about not caring about human atrocities are pretty much just irrelevant drivel.
 
In this extreme case it's an animal. In cases where humans are abused to extreme circumstances they get attention too.

My gosh people the OP was just showing concern for this animal!

Im against all abuse and don't feel the OP has violated anything by asking for people to show their support.

It's pretty stupid to bash a poster and assume they put animals above humans just because they ask for some animal support.

Im one of the stupid people that handout money when people beg on the side of the street but I still have compassion for animals, and I always will. Animals, just like people, don't ask to be abused, and in most instances don't deserve it, JUST LIKE PEOPLE DON'T.

Come on people!

My point is this: When people are more concerned about animals than humans, our society lowers itself both morally and spiritually. Twenty or thirty years ago, supermarkets had one pet food aisle. Today, you'll see 3-5 pet food aisles, many with gourmet brands. Better yet, watch one of those slickly produced TV ads about abused shelter pets, with all of the violins and tear-jerking narration. I do have to question the inner compass of anyone who chooses to invest their time and money to animal rescue when humans should matter more to the individual's soul.

Every time you people care about a dog, a child suffers.

I'd love to know the right way to interpret this post. Let me see if I got it. You know some "lunatics" that are so worried about abused animals that they're incapable of worrying simultaneously about suffering and abused children? They must be suffering from some sort of compassion fatigue. Sure, that's it.

Just like I'm sure you're packing for your next UNICEF mission to West Darfur.

That's right - people caring about animal welfare is just another sign of the moral decay of our society.

Seriously, what's wrong with you people? You got your Cat Fancy foods for your cats and squeaky toys for your pampered Labradors. What's next? Hamsters with their own wheels to roll around the apartment? Don't you know Hitler was a vegetarian? And he killed millions. Look it up, people.
 
Where are you shopping where there are 3 to 5 aisles devoted to pets? A pet store? Get real, I have never been in a grocery store that has multiple pet aisles. Quit making things up

Most of the multiple dog food aisles are found in Clemson area stores, but there really aren't that many pets in Clemson. ;)

I'm confused. Are you implying I am a Clemson fan? That is a common response around here when there are disagreements.
 
That's simply technology, as variety has increased in every industry. There used to be one phone company, maybe 5 breakfast cereals, a handful of major automobile manufacturer's etc. Are we to equate technological advancement, and more options (i.e. freedom to choose) with moral decay?
Personally I think more foundations dedicated to more causes, helping more people/animals is a sign of progress.

(edited: forgot to quote this as a response to bdblack. It could seem confusing on it's own).

Pet Smart? Pet Co? They are basically like small grocery store size

I read this story and thought, how can I help? You read this and thought, how can I belittle someone? I think you have issues that only the love of a four-legged friend can fix. ;)
 
The OP had no mention of abuse involving humans whether it be domestic, assault, trafficking, or anything else. It was only about animals. You who inserted the human aspect into this only hijacked this thread. Period. Start your own thread about abuse involving people if you'd like. I won't hijack it with posts about animal cruelty.

Who also needs to be held accountable is our sorry legislators who have kept animal cruelty laws in our state at a misdemeanor level. Anybody think this guy deserves a felony charge? I sure do, Our cowardly legislators cowtow to the also-deservingfelony-charges cockfighters in our state. They won`t stand up to these good ok` boys who try and preserve this cruel tradition in our sometimes backward state, It should be a no brainer to anyone who saw the picture of this poor dog and has any compassion for the suffering he went through.

She is recovering nicely tonight from plastic surgery to repair her lip, and it looks like the laser and hyperbaric treatment have saved the majority of her tongue.

CAS does wonderful work here. So much that Charleston is the southeast's first No Kill Community. We got our Skitters from CAS a year and a half ago.

There is no doubt that animal cruelty laws need to be more strict in SC.

And if you wish for my views on the current CDV bill that is simply awaiting signatures, start a separate thread.
