    Any kind of animal abuse should be minimum 1 year jail time. The things people do to animals is 100% unacceptable. The punishment now isn't enough that's why it keeps happening. MAKE IT STOP!!!!!

    ALL LIVES MATTER, including animals. STOP THE HATE & VIOLENCE. All life should be treated with respect. If have the smallest amount of gratefulness for your life and the people, places, things around you. Show respect to people, animals, and what mother earth has given you.

    Animal abuse should be include anything that harms an animal. I heard of yet another case where despicable people let their dogs starve. This is absolutely insane, to allow a harmless animal suffer. Anyone who harms an animal in any way shape or form should not only not be allowed to own an animal they should go to prisoner and pay a find. It is sadistic and alarming that one could deprive food from an animal.

    So tired of hearing news story upon news story of animal abuse in this country. Without harsher laws this epidemic will only get worse. It's time we step up to help those who can't help themselves.

    If a human can hurt an animal, they are capable of hurting humans. They obviously have no sense of feelings towards life, if they can hurt something so helpless, they are going to eventually move on to something that is more appealing to them. This sickness is like an addiction you always need more. These people should NEVER be allowed to own an animal again, EVER! WE have to stand up for animals. It brings me tears when I hear about animal abuse.

    Animals should cherished and protected. They give us loyalty and love and we should reciprocate.

    Saving and helping animals have been a passion my whole life. I've been doing lots more research so that I can help get stricter and harsher punishment in the State of Connecticut. If anyway knows besides Humane Society, Chief States Attorney Office. Please let me know. Thank you.

    "And then there is gratuitous abuse. As Dr. Randall Lockwood, a psychologist who has written extensively on the link between animal abuse and human violence, writes, ?Those who abuse animals for no obvious reason are budding psychopaths. They have no empathy and only see the world as what it?s going to do for them.?

    Please make stricter laws for animal abuse. The cruelty gets worse every day to innocent, defenseless animals & it does lead to more serious harm.

    there is a direct link between animal suffering and human suffering. for the humans we do not pile them up and euthanize based on age or health. the more pain i see in animals the less humanity i see.

    People should not be able to reclaim the animal that they abused. This is not justice for the animal. I believe that animal abuse laws are not a conservative or liberal issue. This is a humanity issue.

    I agree. Most people who end up killing humans start with animals.

    I am so sickened every time I hear another story of unimaginable cruelty to animals, the Willie Bee Turner case just being the most recent of many others. We have to make laws tougher both to have pets and to punish those who mistreat them.
