I'm a Dog Lover, but NOT Racist

Tuesday, 29 March 2011 11:25
The comment made at "Racist Dog Lovers" is ridiculous and the person making it needs to read a book and learn something. Where does race figure into ANY of this? Get this through your thick skull: No one cares what color an animal abuser is- and stop detracting from the issue. Evil comes in all colors and this is just one. Anyone who purposely starves a helpless craeture and throws him out like garbage needs to be punished. And 6 months and $1,000 doesn't cut it. $1,000 won't even cover the vet bills for poor Patrick. If you truly believe this is a horrifying, sicckening crime (which it is), you will keep race out of it.

Racism and Pit Bulls

I agree that racism and animal abuse do not be to be discussed together....however....the unfortunate truth is that dog fighting and abuse of Pit Bulls is committed primarily by African Americans...........It's too bad, but it seems the inner-city African American community lacks common decency, respect and moral fiber. The Patrick case just proves it - and there are thousands more like him out there. It's incredibly heartbreaking. Nothing disgusts me more and to be perfectly honest, when things like this happen, it justifies racism....................

Sorry, I really don't see that comment as racist. The rope comment I took as hanging the old fashioned way in the gallows- white criminals got their punishment that way back in the day too. Not just the horrible race-related lynchings. And I could be wrong, but the "obsolete farm equipment" - I took to mean "ho".

In any event- a few posters here made some very good points that we are so angry about this, we are making comments that she can try to take and use to claim she's being "wronged", and I agree that no one should go to her facebook page or say /do anything to hurt this case. So true we need to channel our anger at those that commit these unspeakable acts and do more than just get mad, or cry. Fight for justice by doing everything in your power to strengthen these laws. I wrote a long letter and faxed it to the County Prosecutor, and will be writing my local representatives too.

And I apologize for my angry comments at you, Kristy.

The following quote was posted in this thread:

"That piece of obsolete farm equipment needs either some old fashioned rope therapy or a good lashing for what she did that that dog. Dogs are far more valuable than that subhuman beast Kisha Cole. "

I was primarily responding to this blatant racist comment.
