Another Nail in The Coffin of Freedom: It's Now a Federal Crime To Attend A Dogfight ! | |

Quoting: Bluebird Those fighting dogs were raised for fighting, just as the chicken, pigs and cows are raised to be slaughtered for eating. Where exactly is the difference? If there is difference, being bitten beats having a head cut off or getting electrocuted, I would say. What moral principle do you invoke (from which sacred book) to conclude that first kind of harming the animal is evil while the other kind is good harm? Or what moral principle makes watching the bombings of cities, killing hundreds of thousands of humans, perfectly moral entertainment, while watching a dog or cock fight a crime, and then still, watching human MMA fighters break each others bones moral again? What sacred book declared those moral principles and on what authority? |

They are animals. They do not have souls, human beings do. Nor do they have "rights." Your moral compass is broken. |

God forbid you people give as much shit or at all when humans are being slaughtered. I find dogfights disgusting as well, but I would never advocate killing a participant. They are animals, just like the ones most of you eat. Get your priorities straight. |

Have a good time in hell. In China and Korea and other Asian nations dogs are skinned alive and then eaten . Puppies are roasted alive in China. Will those people be going to Hell too ? Yes So billions of human beings will be condemned to Hell because in their culture they eat different animals than we do ? That's sick. The Holy Bible says that God put animals on this Earth to be used by humans as we see fit -- He gave us dominium over all the animals of the Earth. |

Quoting: Soldier of Destiny Yes, yes, the prison industrial complex loves people like you! The man who exercised his first amendment right of peaceful assembly should be locked in a cage so the private prison system can profit from his slavery. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 12680882 United States 02/12/2014 10:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess some of you fuckwads forgot about this little thing called the constitution. Quoting: Dr. Ben Schillen Is dog fighting horrible? Yes, and I hope those that run the fights are arrested and tried in a court of law. But we have this little thing called the first amendment. May this will jog your memory about what the first amendment is about: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Do you see it now? So long as the assembly is peaceful, then Congress needs to and not arrest those that are merely attending the fight. The individuals that organize the fights, fight their dogs, etc, sure they're fair game, but arresting someone for watching a dog fight is unconstitutional. Don't let your emotions get the best of you. So by your um...."logic" it would be acceptable nay desirable too stand by while ANY other type crime is being committed ? You sir are a frickin imbecil. My logic? I merely pointed out that the law infringes on the constitutional rights of those just watching the fight. Now...on to your `logic.' The implication of your statements is that the government should pass more laws forcing people to do things against their will. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 43618633 You represent probably less than 1% of Americans with your idiotic viewpoint. You have the freedom to express your idiotic views though, I'll give you that. Animal cruelty is disgusting and we should have laws to prevent and punish such actions. Making it a federal crime seems like it's over-stretching it a bit, but still, anyone who thinks dog fighting is a good thing is just a complete fucking moron. I thought it always was illegal. stars |
