Someone can correct me if I'm wrong as I've never done any research on this subject but, we have to be the only country in the world that panders to PETA pansies and fucking Fido lovers by making laws where the punishment for offenses revolving around animals is worse than in some cases for crimes perpetrated against human beings....
That's fucking ridiculous....It's a fucking ANIMAL!!!

I understand that you may love Fido for reasons that I may find totally fucking retarded but to go to the point of humanizing an animal and thus treating it as such both at home and in the eyes of the law is the dumbest shit ever to me.
