[Dailydrool] Not reading bad news

[melissa gibson]

I am just the opposite, as much as it kills me to see that sort of thing , I 
want to work as an animal cruelty investigator or in animal rescue. My friends 
doubt this will be possible knowing that I like animals more than people and 
would have little patience for anyone neglecting or mistreating an animal. I too 
am disgusted by the kind of person that would burn an animal. Let's take our 
anger and channel it. Call your state legislator and push for tougher animal 
cruelty penalties. Here in Missouri there have been some extremely grotesque 
abuse cases. People get off with fines. LOCK THESE PEOPLE UP!!!  Drool to all in 
need.

This is something I really know about.I walk out of movies that have animal 
deaths as part of them: I walk out of movies and do not read books that involve 
torture or executions. I refuse to watch Silence of the Lambs, In Cold Blood-- 
both of which I read.I cannot watch CRIMINAL MINDS any more.
But I also know that not viewing these things, and not reading the papers and 
not  watching torture movies doesn't make it go away, that it is out there, sure 
as I breathe. And people do terrible things to each other,nevermind dogs and 
cats and horses and so on. Mothers who drown their children, or shoot them or so 
on andso forth.
And while I avoid the fictitious stuff, I know about the real stuff, and I know 
that if I avoid it, it is one less person out there able to help.
And so I will continue to aknowledge that these things happen, and do what I can 
to help. Hiding, (much as I would love to do it) isn't going to change a thing.
I hope the people who have said they are going to drop out beacause of these  
things reconsider.
MomPerson to Nigel and LLewis and Conley and Doc, who could have just as easily 
been that Basset.
