What Did You Prove?

Wed, 10/03/2018 - 10:19 -- kmazrin

You threatened to drown him.

Threatened to kill her.

But what does that really do for you?

By throwing that cat in the back of a truck and hoping he will fall out and get run over, what did you prove?

How stupid you are? Or are you now considered ‘cool’?

I don't know what goes through your mind,

But something's not right.

By hurting something smaller than you, it doesn't make you any stronger.

 

Putting a shock collar on that cat changed his life forever.

Throwing that one out a window, didn't help.

Swerving to run over that one, shattered it’s pelvis.

Tying a string on the kitten’s leg left him with a permanent limp.

The cat that walked in front of your house, was it necessary to shoot it with a bibi gun?

If you hurt a animal, you obviously have no heart.

You obviously are too  busy bragging about what you did

To care that you put that young cat to it’s death.

 

How you can sleep soundly at night i don’t know.

If you feel good about yourself, shame on you.

Animals may be smaller and weaker than us,

but that doesn't give ANYONE the right to abuse them.  

If you get the satisfaction of harming a helpless animal, then you are a soulless creature.

They have a right to be here too.

Respect that, animals respect that for us, so let's do the same.

At the end of the day ask yourself, what did you prove by doing that?
