Animals are pets that have feelings same as humans. Animals deserve to be loved, not abused. People that abuse animals should not be allowed to own animal ever again, which a registery for animal cruelty should be allowed just like a sex offender registery is allowed to protect children. Give animals a voice and protect animals like would protect any memeber of family, friend and United States.REPORT COMMENTS

Just because they are animals does not mean they don't feel pain. Just because they are animals should not mean they don't deserve to be protected. The people who abuse/torture animals should be held accountable. Sadly, in most states, the law simply regards these creatures as "PROPERTY" when in fact they are our companions, our confidantes, our therapists- our FRIENDS! They have no voice- they depend on us to protect them! Help us hold those who abuse animals accountable for their actions--BE THEIR VOICE!!

In the following petition, 9 judges were thanked for maximum sentencing in the cases of abuse, all abuse cases were horrific and some were multiple occurrences. We have people in jail for less aggressive and dangerous crimes and yet these were the maximum sentences. I am alarmed and frightened and ask that more is done to protect the American people against these terrible and dangerous people. We applaud the actions of the following Judges and would like to say ?Thank You? to: 1) State Court Honorable Judge Alvin Wong sentenced Aaron Lewis to the maximum sentence of one-year in prison. Lewis locked his pit bull in a closet and left her to die. The tortured dog has left deep claw marks around the door in an attempt to release herself before dying a slow and agonizing death.Continue reading: Examiner.com http://www.examiner.com/pet-rescue-in-national/dekalb-county-man-sentenced-to-prison-after-locking-dog-closet-to-die?CID=examiner_alerts_article#ixzz1rV2UaUeX 2) Honorable Judge Mary Barglund sentenced Nicholas Michael Leisner, 18, and Peter John Sauve, 17 to two to four years in prison for pleading guilty to three counts of torturing/killing an animal for beating three purebred Angus cattle.

Puerling swung the cat by its tail, then smashed the animal into a concrete slab five times, then threw it into a garbage cart. "The cat is a living human animal and doesn't deserve to be basically murdered, which is what happened in this case," Judge Hansher said.
