    When I see the countless stories of abuse, and the people that abuse animals only getting a slap on the wrist, it just makes me sick. Abusing an animal is no worse than abusing a child or another human being. Studies show that the children or young adults that abuse animals may often become serial killers. ANYONE that can hurt a living being and get their thrills from it, is a sick individual. They shouldn't just get a slap on the wrist with a little fine. They need more jail time, higher fines, and American needs to learn that ABUSE of any sort will NOT BE TOLERATED. If you have not seen any of the videos of abuse, I encourage you to view them, then try NOT to pass a law. There are countless videos of dairy animals, other farm animals being tortured just for fun. Dairy animals made to be pregnant just for more milk, their calves then tortured and killed. Animals put in the care of what are supposed to be "shelters" abused, starved, beaten. If you can look at any of these videos and not cry, not feel for the animals, and don't feel for the animals, then you have no heart either. Please, please, please, pass a law to protect those with no voice.

    People who abuse children can go to jail for a long time. Those who abuse animals should also be subject to long prison terms. It is a well known fact that people who abuse animals ALSO abuse people. Animals are very much like children, but they don't have a voice. Animal lovers need to take a stand against animal abuse!

    Animal Abuse must STOP, the only way is an eye for eye, let's make REAL laws and be able to enforce them, that is the only way evil people will stop and think before they act. Let's give a voice to our animal world.

    There is far too much abuse of animals in this country and stronger laws with harsher penalties need to be made for those who abuse and torture animals. When I vote I will be looking for those who support having stronger laws against animal abuse.

    5 of my dogs are rescues, 3 threw out on the street to fend for themselves and starve to death, one left as a small puppy on the street..infested with fleas, worms, and gashes all over her little body..she was half dead, and the last one came from a puppy mill, he has scars all down his back, and is terrified of everything! He was a year old and had never been out of a crate. Animal abuse needs to stop! If a person abuses an innocent animal that cannot defend itself, its only a matter of time before they turn on their own!

    All animals deserve to be protected against man. Perhaps by protecting animals now and stopping abusers early on will protect more animals and even people somewhere down the road.

    The abuse needs to me stopped. God gave us dominion over all creatures, but no where do he say we can abuse them. How can you look into the face of any animal & abuse them is beyond comprehension to me. Please vote to stop this cruelty, mankind is suppose to be superior to animals, prove it!

    Many animals give there all to keep their family (humans) safe so why can't we do the same for them?
