People Who Engage in Any Part of Dogfighting are SCUM: They Need to Be in Jail

It's high time that authorities go after those who are engaged in dogfighting "entertainment" and punish everyone involved to the fullest extent of the law. That means those who raise the dogs to fight, those who organize the fights, those who attend the fights, those who gamble on them, and everyone in between who have knowledge about organized dogfights that take place and fail to report them.

This is a cruel, inhumane activity that requires aggressive community policing and prosecutions of those who are involved.

In this matter alone, I am in total agreement with PETA, who has been calling for more aggressive enforcement of the laws for quite some time.

The arrest and conviction of a prominent professional football player--whose name will not be mentioned by me--has brought some much-needed spotlight to a problem that is growing around the country. It has to STOP.
