Man Arrested After Allegedly Throwing Dog Into Brick Wall

Tulsa - A Tulsa man faces animal cruelty charges after allegedly throwing a puppy into a brick wall after a domestic disturbance.

Police say 18-year-old Joseph Minter was arrested after a witness says he threw the six-week-old puppy against the wall while in a "fit of rage".

The incident happened Saturday. Minter was taken into custody and faces a felony complaint of cruelty to animals. Bond was set at four-thousand dollars.

The dog, who officials say was vomiting blood, was reportedly taken to a veterinarian and is said to be alive.

In related news, a guy in Tulsa drove his girlfriend to an abortion clinic last week in order to have his own son's skull crushed and limbs torn off.

There was no public outcry, no charges and no bond set.

I thought those guys just gave the girlfriend the money to go for an abortion and disappeared - or just disappeared.

When I worked at a pro-life clinic, no putative father ever showed up to accompany his girlfriend for the free pregnancy test. Not once in years. Not a single time.

....I commend your passion against abortion, BUT, find your use of such barbaric detail to defend it offensive on a thread that does not address abortion....if and when I want to read a thread about abortion I expect graphic detail (still do not understand why it need be so) and bitterness.

Most of us freepers find abortion sad and ruthless, but, we are not stupid nor in need of offensive details thrown at us again and again and this the main reason I( and perhaps many others) do not partake in abortion threads.
What value for your crusade do these lowbrow tactics hold other than deeming the crusaders who use them immature and/or lunatics?

I was endeavoring to make the following point:

(1) It's considered a necessary piece of an important news story to describe what this sicko did to the puppy.

(2) Yet, when worse violence is directed toward an unborn child, its not considered newsworthy and is unmentionable.

How about we launch this snotbucket's head into a wall out of a Howitzer? I'm not sure it'll make up for the crime, but hopefully the ASPCA would feel vindicated. I hope he gets his head banged into his cell's prison bars, while someone from behind is "bangin" him.

I hope that a judge, while in a "fit of rage", throws Joseph Minter in jail for a long stint.

The details are so offensive that the pro-abortion crowd does not allow the details. Why is that ?

The pro-abortion crowd realizes that if enough citizens are made aware of the offensive details, support for abortion will surely decrease.

I'm outraged by what the man did to the puppy. I'm outraged by abortion. Just as the United States can focus on more than one element of the War on Terrorism at one time, I can be outraged by more than one thing at once.

I understand the point that the pro-life people are making. They are stunned that people aren't similarly outraged by abortion. But the replies often sound like they are trying to downplay the brutality to the animal. Both are brutal. Both should shock. By all means bring up that abortion should shock, too, but don't suggest that what this man did to the puppy shouldn't shock.

You were exactly right for making the point - thanks for the wakeup!

30-40 Million dead from abortion, yet we get all teary-eyed about a puppy - sheesh!

(don't get me wrong, I love animals, BUT.....)

[AAABEST]

Listen to this crap.

WTF is going on in someone's mind to do something like this?

[KneelBeforeZod]

lots of serial killers first started killing/maiming animals. none of them started with abortions.

you're preaching to the choir anyway.

Thanks again.

It seems the de-sensitization is complete! Many times I have told people about the details of abortion, they do not care. If you talk about doing these things to a cat or dog, you know, some animal they take care of (even if they have kids) usually drives the point home. So many murders seen on TV every night, it has come to a hurting family pet being more wrong than hurting a human. How many times at the end of movies do you see the words "no humans were injured in the making of this film...?"
