This took place in the part of Philadelphia where I grew up...and based on other news stories I've read before this final, horrible outcome, he had adopted Edna from an animal shelter I worked in years ago, and from which I'd adopted many pets.

This is just so absolutely horrible. Just when I think human depravity can sink no lower, it does.

Gangsta-rappin' mini-thugs murdering someone's pet. And where are their parents? The mind swings wildly. What kind of parents raise kids to do such a thing? Typically a dad who has been dispossessed - and can't teach them to be good, healthy-minded boys - by a self-determined single mother - an feminist-convinced 'expert communicator' with more 'empathy' per cubic centimetre than a boat-load of men - who loves herself and the State's money above all else.

Just a guess.

I hope this doesn't offend anyone...

As a dyed in the wool dog person... If it was my kids who'd caught some poor guy's dog, and were torturing it, or had done any harm to it, I don't know what I would do... But it wouldn't be pretty. Very late term abortion comes to mind.

Exactly. As disgusted and angry as I am over this, it's also very sad. What kind of life must a 9 year old boy have lived to be able to do such a thing to an animal? My sons are 13 and 8 and neither of them could hurt a fly. We're involved in dog rescue and all three of my children cry when it comes time to turn a foster dog over to it's new home. They all cried for a week when their ferret died. They couldn't even conceive of doing something like this. I'm with Percy in betting that there wasn't a dad in the picture and nothing worthwhile in the way of a mother.

God, I just cringe at the thought of anything like that happening to my dog.

As much as I am against abortion (and you KNOW how much I am against it), retroactive abortion sounds mighty good to me right about now for these pieces of garbage.

Typical, single mother pieces of vermin...oh yeah! "Ah don't need no man to raise no child!" Sure you don't, bitch!
(sorry, sorry...I'm still very shattered over this!)

BTW in Philly we're organizing a massive protest at 12 noon outside the offices of Verizon, the phone company that gave the police such a hassle over getting the records of where the calls were made from.

My kids had to start homeschool work VERY early this morning, so we will be free by 12 to go to the demonstration.

My 3 full sisters are all single mothers, and all 3 are crap at raising kids.
