Very much so ,and the people that do these things should be punished.

yes

VERY much so.

Definately, anyone caught abusing an animal should be incarcerated.

YES I am.

Of course I am. How could someone support that?

What *possible* reason could one have for being in favour of it? I'd be interested to see if anyone can justify such behaviour, but doubt it can be rationalised. Cruelty towards any creature reveals something lacking in the psyche of the perpetrator.

Of course I'm against it. Poor little guys... it's horrible. I sometimes find myself feeling worse for animals than I do for people.

Absolutely! I know some people say they are only animals, but 1) we are animals too and 2) they feel emotionally and physically just as we do. They should be loved and cared for just as you would any member of your family.

I am against the kind of cruelty you have described. However, I eat meat, and enjoy it, and I "trust" that the animals I eat are killed humanely, despite what the animal rights people like to claim.

if someone wants 2 b mean or distreat animals it would b the same as beating or mistreating your own kid ar family member! DOWN WITH CRULTY DOWN WITH ANIMALS DEATH 4 NO RESONS DOWN WITH PPL THAT CANT LOVE OR RESPECT THERE FELLOW LIVING THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YES very against it. thanks

I'm thinking anyone with a heart and conscience (sp?) is.

I'm trying to imagine somebody coming here and saying, "No way! Animals are just pinatas that can move around!" I don't think that person would make many friends.

yes i am. no animal deserves t be hit and starving and torturing. It is just plain cruel.

I'm active in the prevention of it.

I think most people are aginats animal cruelty. Usually people who are cruel to animals have something wrong with them, like some sort of mental problem. They don't just decide that they are for it.

Of course. It's even in the Ten Commandments that work animals should get a day of rest.

Yes of course! This is a horrible act..a person who do this is really cruel.

Goodness Yes I'm against it

Yes I am. The Scriptures reveal that Jehovah God deeply cares about all his creation. Even what befalls birds does not escape his notice. Jesus Christ told his disciples: “Do not two sparrows sell for a coin of small value? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father’s knowledge.” (Matt. 10:29) In the Mosaic Law we find these laws given. Deuteronomy 22:6-7 “6 “In case a bird’s nest happens to be before you in the way, in any tree or on the earth with young ones or eggs, and the mother is sitting upon the young ones or the eggs, you must not take the mother along with the offspring. 7 You should by all means send the mother away, but you may take the offspring for yourself; in order that it may go well with you, and you may indeed lengthen your days. 8 “In case you build a new house, you must also make a parapet for your roof, that you may not place bloodguilt”. Deuteronomy 22:10 Deuteronomy 25:4 4 “You must not muzzle a bull while it is threshing. “You must not plow with a bull and an ass together.” God said: “A good man takes care of his animals, but wicked men are cruel to theirs.” (Proverbs 12:10, Today’s English Version) Clearly, God cares about animals, and so should we.

I am much againest it. I don't know how anyone could hurt some helpless animal. I think that anyone who hurts an animal should die.

This is a big soft spot with me, particularly with my shelter work. But I'm not gonna rant. Yes, I'm against animal cruelty.

I am opposed to any form of animal cruelty. I could never understand how someone could hurt an animal. It's just disgusting.

Yes. As a Buddhist, I am against all forms of aggression and/or cruelty.

Yes

Of course. I'm against cruelty to anything, people or animals, even plants for that matter. And you better have a REAL good reason that involve3s no other choice to be cruel to anything. I have found that there is usually another way to achieve what you want without being cruel, physically or mentally.

I am against anyone being cruel to all animals. When an animal bites a person it is because it is either protecting it babies or itself.

Well, duh !!! How could you not!

That is too sick. Yes I can't believe people do it but I know they do

Oh no way !I would never do harm to any being . By the way I love animals and would like to have a pet . I would also be the one who would join the complaint for animal caress and safety .

yes i dont like to see any animals miss treated, thy cant answer you back or defend there selfs, so any one out there dont hurt animals because they dont deseve it dont matter how thy act, just be kind to them, thy would love you even better if your kind and love them.

yes i am. you should never hit an animal if its bein naughty then you should only tell it of or just tap it on the nose gently tho and say no, if you see any animals who look starving be kind and give them something to eat, you wouldnt like to go hungry would you!!! i no i wouldnt....

Yes, I am totally against it. I hate to see any one or animal being abused.

reason or no reason, its bad.

yes yes yes and yes if i could i think i would band all of them on a little island or ship them somewhere animals cant get hurt

of course

Very agaist it. it makes Binky very very angery.

yes animal cruelty must end and humane people should punish wrongdoers
