His dance card’s gonna be full.
“Romero will also have to pay $500 in fines and $343 in restitution to Buddy’s owners.”
Excuse me? The article didn’t specify “Buddy’s” breed, but my dog, also named Buddy, cost me more than that just to adopt, let alone vet costs. If I had caught the bastard stealing my dog I’d have shot him, let alone what he did later to him.
should have been dragged to death himself
I have a question for the FR ladies: why do you think that women get involved with men like this? Don’t they sense the cruelty streak in the men they choose for boyfriends?
Brad Sweet, moral moron of the century. A DOG’S LIFE IS NOT THE SAME AS A HUMAN BEING’S. While animal abuse is sick and Romero deserves to sit in prison, equating a dog/rat/chicken/pig, etc., to a human is depraved.
Perhaps Buddy’s owner should have kept a closer eye on him. He killed a cat. I see to it that my dogs are kept behind a fence where they can’t get to other peoples pets. If he had been watched better, these people couldn’t have stolen him. I bet he was running loose. Before everybody gets on my case, dragging the dog to death was a horrible thing to do but I’m sure poor kitty didn’t have an easy death either.
I bet if this story had been written in gory details about how that dog mauled and killed that poor defenseless cat, everyone here would be saying that damn dog needs to be put to death. OK I’m going away now.
That means a minimum of 80% of the sentence will be served. That also means: if you're going to be an asshole, do it at home, not at any national park, monument, or reservation.
What he did is inexcusable, but 3 years of a man’s life is an awfully stiff penalty for being mean to a dog. I shoot strays routinely with my county sheriff’s blessing. It doesn’t seem to matter much to the dogs why or how I do it.
I noticed that the quotes in the excerpt only reflect thoughts of liberal idiots.
I’m a pet lover and have had many cats and dogs in my 67 years. I regretted every time one of them died.
However, killing a dog is NOT equivalent to killing a human. I think some folks are waaaaay overboard in wanting this jerk to be punished as though he had killed a person.
