Post, captation, and citation #2

This picture is indeed sad, but do you know why it is sad? This picture shows what happens when someone has no kind of respect to an animal. This does not just show animal abuse, but it goes even past that. This poor animal has been arrowed through the head, yet it is still alive. Was this someone’s sick little prank, if so what could give you to do this to a small cat.

Quote,Summary,Source Analysis, and Citation

The very act of cruelty to animals is not ‘human’. The subsequent standard of interaction that causes an animal distress is unwarranted. The unnecessary suffering caused to animals only robs the planet and environment of its inherent nature of co-existence. In order to counter the undeniable existence of cruelty to animals, the governments all over the world have set standards applicable to animal cruelty legislation and its effective enforcement. These set paradigms may vary between different jurisdictions slightly and range from non-existent to more comprehensive measures. Animal cruelty measures, those that establish them, and the acts and conditions under which treatment towards animals is considered ‘cruel’ may also vary.

The very act of cruelty to animals is not ‘human’. In order to counter the undeniable existence of cruelty to animals, the governments all over the world have set standards applicable to animal cruelty legislation and its effective enforcement.  Also, this would indeed help out more for the animal cruelty problem. For example, this plan has no negative effects on the United States or the world.  Also it shows positives effect on this problem. For example, it  will take care of the animal who have been abused or to future animals with abusive owners.

This image relates to my topic, because it shows the scars of an animal which has been abused. Also it show the different kind of scars. For example, some of the scars look more older than some of the others. What kind of person would do this to an animal? This is the prime example of the my topic, of how animals are mistreated and beaten.

The Big Questions

Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.

What I would like to learn

Why do people choose to abuse and mistreat animals is it out of fun, or out of anger? Also, which state in America is known for animal abuse? For example, if we know what state is known for abusing animal the most we can focus some attention on that area. Why would someone want to hurt an animal? What if you were abused, how would you feel? For example, that person would know how it feels to be that animal he/she has been hurting.  Should people serve jail time for animal abuse; if so, how long? How could someone harm a defenseless animal? What do they get out of causing this animal harm; it is like hitting an elderly person in the face. You do not get any satisfaction out of doing it.  If I can answer these questions maybe we can find a way to fix these animal abuse problems. 

Behind the Wall

Why do people think it is right to mistreat animals? Do they not deserve to have peaceful lives like us? I choose this topic to help stop the animal abuse that has been going on in my state, and also in the world. When people hurt animals do they get some kind of pleasure out of it? I do not see what people kind of people would hurt an animal out of anger. As if it couldn't not get any worst some people would not just abuse the animal they would also kill the animal. How could someone look in the mirror and not have any quilt for what they have done? I want to end this. I want to speak for the animals who have been mistreated, even for the ones that have been taken from this world as well.

Inspiration

My topic is widely known already, but I believe there is more to it. It is being taking care of like it should be. I first learned about my topic in the 7th grade; back then I did not really know how bad animals have been treated. Since then my topic has always caught my attention every time I heard about animal cruelty. My freshman year I had a Civics project that helped understand the problem even more. The project involved going out and reaching into our community to help with problems. One of the problems that I saw that was a little common was animal cruelty. Since then I have seen some changes from then. Animal cruelty has gone down slightly, but it is still around. All that I have learned about animal abuse is that it is a problem that must be fixed, must be fixed fast.
