Monkey from Hell Shot While Attempting to EAT a Police Officer: What Was Owner Thinking?

Monkeys are not pets.

And a monkey that is kept as one will eventually go NUTS. And someone will get HURT. It's only a matter of time, according to experts.

Such was the case with a 200 pound monkey that went nuts and attacked a friend of it's owner, partially EATING HER ALIVE before escaping and going after Connecticut police officers who came to put a stop to the carnage.

The enraged monkey pursued the police officers; one officer dove inside a patrol car and slammed the door shut. The monkey tried to open the passenger side door, broke off the mirror and then went around to the driver's side, which was unlocked and entered the vehicle. The officer drew his sidearm and opened fire, fatally wounding the monkey.

The victim remains in critical condition.

What on earth was this person thinking, having a wild animal like that outside of a zoo? This is sheer stupidity and a disaster waiting to happen, which DID.

I suppose PETA's going to protest the fact that the monkey didn't get to EAT the police officer too and got shot for his troubles. LUNACY!

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.
