I've got access, to asphalt trucks. This guy deserves to be dropped into one of the hoppers and poked with sticks.

There will be a Juvenile Animal Cruelty Open House, in Tucson tomorrow. There will be lectures and info, from law enforcement.

The local paper printed the following statistics:

76% of animal cruelty offenses are committed by males (90% of those involve intentional cruelty and dogfighting.)

48% of rapist and 30% of child molestors committed acts of animal cruelty as children or adolescents.

71% of abused women report that their batterers have threatened to hurt/kill their pets and have done so, while 32% of battered women with children report that their children have hurt or kiled pets.

80% of homes in which animal control agencies found abused/neglected pets there had been pevious investigations by child welfare agencies of physical abuse and neglect.

Most teen schoolyard shooters were abusing animals months or even years prior to their killing sprees on school campuses. Likewise, many serial killers including Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy and Albert DeSalvo (the Boston Strangler) abused, tortured or mutilated animals as youth.

A Masachussetts SPCA study showed that people who abuse animals are five times more likely to commit violent crimes than nonabusers.

The typical animal abuser is a male of average intellignce with an early history of antisocial behavior, with a childhood history that is likely to include gross neglect, brutality, rejaction and hostility.

Sending blessings for that poor little tabby. For during her short life she was not treated well and I feel so sorry that this was her first experiences in our world. May the world be kinder, gentler--and more understanding. She is at peace in heaven now.
