    Animals have no voice. Stricter laws are needed to give them a voice. No animal should suffer at the hands of a human. Apollo and others have died horrific deaths while their perpetrators get minimal punishment. I favor background checks on anyone wanting to adopt or buy an animal in PA. I favor a monthly check on all animals in their new homes for the first 6 months after adopting or purchasing an animal. A stricter system is needed so abuse of animals ends.

    Animal cruelty has serious consequences for humans is a phenomenon known as the ?erosion of empathy?. It?s been known for some time that most serial killers start their murderous careers by killing animals: Jeffrey Dahmer impaled the heads of cats and dogs on sticks. The self-named Crossbow Cannibal from Bradford was reported to keep large lizards which he fed on live rodents. Cruelty to animals is the first step; once this moral hurdle has been stepped over, it?s much easier to be cruel to humans. Please let's stop animal cruelty and make it a crime that deserves years of prison time .

    Animals are innocent and due to negligence end up in terrible situations. Many uneducated and sick people end up using torturous crimes as a way of amusement on these poor creatures. Since animals don't have voice it's not a problem or great issue. Wake up these people will have no problem rein acting these sick acts on humans.!

    Every second a animal is being abused ,neglected or killed by the hands of people.The one whom do this are very dangerous people,whom will mostlikely abuse a child or another human being.These animals are like children,They have feelings and can't defend themselves and suffer great harm and death .All they want is to be loved and look to there owners to give them the love they sldeserve and need ,they depend on us to feed,love ,house and to fully take care of them.Animals give more love than most human beings could ever imagine of giving.please make a stand and sign this petition and lets make a great change for these loving fur babies.Please sit back and think of what really goes on out there and make a difference.... WE ARE THERE VOICES!!!!! THEY DEPEND ON US...LETS STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY NOW...THANK YOU

    This needs to be a zero tolerance country. We believe in a higher power, correct? I'm sure that our God would not be okay with us mistreating our neighbors on this earth. "One nation, under GOD".

    People who abuse animals turn on their own kind when they are older. If we can stop animal abuse, we are one more step towards helping mankind. If we enforce stricter laws reqarding animal abuse, it will keep will help our society and our furry friends safe. These so-called sports players that used animals should have been punished the most for their harmful disqusting treatment and been made an example to show the rest of our society that we are NOT going to put up with animal abuse. Funny, how people in high places can get away with so much! Plus, I agree that they should be registered so they are not allowed to ever adopt or obtain animals in the future. Also, be monitored for 10 years afterwards to make sure they are not harming animals.
