Absolutely terrible. These things just don't surprise me anymore. Adult men kidnap and rape children all the time, and animals are burnt and tortured as entertainment. Its become a very very sick world anymore. That is why I get pissed when people accuse others of sheltering their children as if it is a bad thing. Children need to be sheltered so they don't become like these disgusting creatures that are destroying the lives of both people and animals. Our children are becoming desensitized anymore because its almost become common for these things to happen. Seems theres just no regard for any life or innocence anymore.
Last year there was a black lab local to me that was poisoned with antifreeze and hung from a tree and beaten. He was rescued and he is doing ok now in a new home, but I don't think they guy that did it got much punishment. Sick people.
