Animal Cruelty and Human Violence

10:05 |

Humans are so powerful and resourceful, we dominate the food chain, we survived the ice age, we quickly adapt to our environment, we built sky sweepers, jet planes to travel from a continent to another within hours, we landed on the moon, and nowadays we can make a perfect duplicate from our selves by cloning… this list can go on and on and on about the great achievement of the human race.

But, what pauses me and shocks me is how we got this developed and dominated this globe and we still have dog fights for entertainment, killing seals for there skin, ripping the skin of an innocent defenseless rabbit to make a coat, slathering elephants and rhinos for there ivory, keeping dogs and cats in cages that they barely fit in so we can sell them and make a living out of other’s agony, murdering wolves so we can be warm, I’m surprised how we can hit and torture stray cats and dogs just for the fun of it.

Animal cruelty is one of the most intense and painful topics for me, how we can torment harmless, defenseless and most important speechless creature???

Is it because they can’t talk and scream for help? Or is it because we think of them as less?

Do we do this because the simple fact that we can?

I think we do it because we are sick!

People who practice animal cruelty, for me are sick twisted and they are looser and they can’t get a grip on there lives, they either experienced domestic violence by their parents, underachievers, social outcast, what I need to say is that they definitely have something wrong going on in their lives and they put it and steam it out on animals, SICK!!!

What defines us as human beings is our ability to feel sympathy and to nurture, and we rise in our humanity when we treat our less among us with respect and love.
