A
horrible atrocity has been committed in Texas. Please brace yourselves
before reading further. However, anyone being a pet lover must be
informed. You can help tremendously by signing the petition at: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/913164427
I thank each and every one of you in advance for signing, and please
forward it on to your friends and family members. Hopefully, if enough
of us join together, we will create a force to be reckoned with. A
tragedy of this magnitude must be prevented from happening again –
EVER! ANYWHERE!
In Jourdanton, Texas, on or about 7-11-05, a City Supervisor ordered
two employees to cage and drown the dogs in their animal control facilities.
For this to happen in water is beyond imagination, but these unfortunate
animals were drowned at the sewer plant, in sewage!
Sadly, a young child witnessed this from a distance. Can you imagine
how helpless he felt, or the visions that will remain with him? They
will be visions of a nightmare that took place before his very eyes
in broad daylight - visions of man’s best friend suffering a terrible
fate. And more than likely, he will forever remember the fearful,
desperate sounds; those of screaming and yelping dogs as they fought
to live.
A simple Google search will give you the links necessary to become
well versed on this event. You will also be able to read what is,
and what is not, transpiring at this time to indict the perpetrators
of this act. Please type in, "Jourdanton Dog Drownings," and see for
yourself.
The City Manager did his best to sweep this nasty event under the
carpet, and when broached about it, he wrote a simple reprimand to
the Supervisor. Nothing more - period, end of paragraph! Only a reprimand
was forthcoming for torturing animals - when there are laws against
it. It truly boggles the mind and breaks my heart! Not to mention,
taxpayers shell out money to pay wages for people of this caliber.
We cannot allow things of this nature to take place, and especially
with no consequences for those involved. Why do we have laws, if they
are not to be enforced? Each and every person involved in this tragedy
broke the law and each one should be held accountable. The employees
that did this “dirty deed” should have refused knowing it was illegal,
regardless of the orders from their superior. What happened to mankind
knowing right from wrong, morals, and human decency? I always assumed
those things resided within our hearts…
When you give your pets hugs and kisses this evening, please remember
the dogs that suffered a tragic, terrifying death at the hands of
heartless, evil, human beings that couldn’t have cared less. |
