the law should definitely discourage such a thing.

Rob, here is your profile......Location: Seattle E-mail: rob_wma@hotmail.com - Cobol programmer (consultant), bass player, bike commuter, professing Christian funamentalist and creationism apologist. My wife really is "robroys woman."
Here is my response as to 'why' Mr. macho-man....
Jesus said that not even a sparrow falls to the ground that God does not notice....Matthew 10:31
I'm always amazed by guys who pass themselves off as 'tough-guys.'
So are you saying that you see nothing wrong with torturing animals to death, and that it should be perfectly legal?
Because the law reflects our common judeo-christian heritage that eschews violence for violence sake against either animal or human.
Even in the good ol' days, blood sports existed for the sake of sport and profit. Cats were tortured and killed as witches, wrong, but at least there was a purpose.
Mindless violence toward animal, human or property has never been tolerated in the general culture that America rose from. Our laws reflect that heritage (still).
