Well, personally I don’t eat meat. But the issue is not that he killed the kittens — animals shelters and vets do that every day. He took them under false pretenses from people who were offering them only as pets, AND he tortured them, deliberately making them suffer extreme pain and terror before they died. It’s quite illegal to do that when killing an animal for food, and is a sign that the man is dangerously mentally ill and a threat to humans as well as animals.

This sick b____d should be tied up and burnt alive. I’d be happen to toss the match myself.

How could you do such a heinous thing to an innocent baby kitten? This should also be a wake-up call to all the folks advertising FREE animals in newspapers, craigslist, etc. NEVER, EVER give animals away for free. Always charge an adoption fee, to weed out sickos like this guy, people looking for free snake food, free pitbull training bait, or a victim for some weird ritual sacrifice. There are also the “bunchers” who answer lots of these ads and sell the animals to Class B animal dealers, through which the poor things end up being tortured in lab experiments. Many people answering these ads make up elaborate stories about how great a home the pet will have, etc. Some even bring a kid along to further their story. But they are just getting the pet for horrible purposes. Repeat: NEVER, EVER give a pet away for free!

Oh yeah—I am a cat-owning cat lover.

Well, I'm a hunter and a carnivore myself, and I can see the difference. The difference is cruelty. Taking life with respect in order to sustain life is, in my opinion, a very different thing from taking it while deliberately inflicting suffering and solely for the purposes of amusement. That constitutes a lack of respect that reflects on all life including one's own. It isn't a minor point, IMHO.

Just my $0.02.

And killers of the unborn get funding.

Boom, like clockwork. I'm surprised it took this long for the thread to get hijacked.

Hijacked or not, it is a valid point nonetheless. This man has definitely entered the dark side and is a contemptible psychotic.

I think we can all agree on that and certainly it does no harm to point out that far worse acts are committed that are rewarded rather than punished.

Just sayin’.

I only wish he was severly tortured while in jail. Then it would be justice.

Are you dense? He purposely tortured the innocent things. He’s sick and dangerous and should never be allowed back into society. What kind of human being could purposely torture a kitten?? Good Lord.

>He got 5 years for killing some animals? Why? Because they’re cute and fluffy wuffy?<

Perhaps because if not stopped, he’ll go from animals to the serial murder of human beings. In any case, he’s mentally ill.

Good. Too bad they didn’t or couldn’t give him more time in prison. This is a very disturbed man.

Where do you buy meat from animals tortured to death?

If you don't see the difference, I feel kinda sorry for you.

What a horrible, sick, twisted person.

As for meeting a large cat person in prison, I hope it happens, too. And those do exist. I worked with and became friends with a huge, hulking, fierce-looking Marine last year - the guy looked like he came right off of the USMC recruiting poster - and he would become Jell-O around this cat who hung out on our compound. He spoiled her with food from the chow hall, petted her everytime he saw her, made "nests" for her out of old blankets and towels on cold nights and ordered cat food off of netgrocer.com for her (and her feline friends.)

This criminal creep needs to come up against somebody built like that who loves cats.
