I guess I don't see what he did wrong. He wasn't torturing them he just killed them.

Our society is so darn "sanitized" these days that a kid seeing a dog get killed is deemed scandalous.

No wonder the pacifist lefties are winning.

Yes I am disgusted by the comments on this thread. Sure lets waste money so that they are "properly euthanized" according to the liberals instead of getting rid of them in a much more efficient manner. Furthurmore lets clog up the courts even more so that we can prosecuted these people and ignore real criminals.

Government shouldn't even be sticking its nose into the regulation of "animal cruelty". It is yet another blow to the ideal of limited government.

Death by Drowning is Torture.
It is one of the slowest cruelest deaths. It is not quick, it is by no means painless and it is not what humane people do. If you have ever had a hard time catching your breath or held your breath until your lungs felt as though they would burst, imagine that but without any relief available.
This is not about killing. Dogs are euthanized every day. This is about wanton, sick cruelty.

Specifically what he did wrong was he broke the State of Texas Law ~ see my post at #68 or click here to read the State of Texas Laws regarding TREATMENT AND DISPOSITION OF ANIMALS HEALTH & SAFETY CODE - CHAPTER 821

I think this has got to be a troll, but what the hell, I'll respond anyway.
Drowning is torture. Is that how you would like to go? That was what the outrage was all about. Not that the dogs were killed, but that they were unnecessarily tortured, and that the perpetrator was not punished.

Our society is so darn "sanitized" these days that a kid seeing a dog get killed is deemed scandalous.

Again. The outrage is not so much that a kid saw it, but that it happened at all. Anyway, seeing an animal tortured to death is not on any level going to be a good experience for a child.

No wonder the pacifist lefties are winning.

Respect for life, respect for the life of all God's creatures is a conservative value, not a leftie one. That doesn't mean you don't eat meat (although I don't) or don't put down stray dogs, but it should be done with the least amount of suffering possible.
