Show me someone who intentionally inflicts pain on an animal (as opposed to dispatching a pest) and I’ll show you a piece of crap excuse for a human who should be put down then and there. Anyone who would torture an animal is a ‘human’ I’d gladly see disposed of on the spot like the garbage that they are.
Vern Buchanan of Florida... doesn’t appear to have any experience in farming, hunting, wildlife management or trapping and as probably never been in grass that wasn’t mowed.

But an unborn CHILD is just a clump of cells...
As soon as it’s employed against Michael Vick-types who are abusing dogs it will immediately become RAAAAAACIST.
Even simple murder is not a federal crime. We have gotten away from this elementary concept with deprivation of civil rights and terrorism laws but heaven’s sakes people, we have a federal system and not every awful thing people do is a federal issue. I like puppies as much as the next fellow but do you really want the federal government even bigger and even more powerful?
Babies can be murdered but animals are protected!!!!!
If you're not responsible of your pets and they become my problem, then it becomes your problem.
They are you animal. You nor they have a right to destroy my property and my birds and animals.
So if I burned a snake to get it to leave an electrical panel, I lose all my guns and do time ?
Swat team at front door at 5:00 AM: “Your cat called us to complain about her food”
So do the stupid snowflakes in the cities get to decide that all hunting, rifle and bow, as well as sport fishing are cruel to animals?
I don’t trust them for a second to not take away all hunting, fishing, and trapping in this country.
So my answer is not only NO, BUT HELL NO!!!!!
This is another big city liberal sucker play.
Does this mean I can’t fish from my aquarium anymore?
Good!
And that is the end of the discussion. Morally I am all for making animal cruelty a felony. But that’s the constitutional bailiwick of the states.
Kill your unborn human baby and get off scot free.
I anticipate strong pushback on this from Those We Must Not Offend.
I know where this is going: Owning a pet will eventually be considered animal cruelty. Guaranteed.
So if you had a pregnant dog and ripped the puppies out of the womb and killed them it would be a crime, but if you did the same to a human being ripping it out of the mother’s womb just before birth and killed it in New York you would be celebrated.
I’d punch anyone i saw beating an animal but that doesn’t mean it should be a federal offense.
The elevation of animals to human like status is very creepy .
And that includes conservatives who treat a dog like a kid.
Animals should never be abused but they shouldn’t be treated like humans either.
Soon to be added; slaughter houses, fisherys and then the vegetable law. Welcome famine!
