Distressed after animal abuse news

Warning, violent abuse of cat

I read today that 5 teens kicked and stomped a cat to death in Edmonton. I cannot stop thinking about this act.

How can anyone do this? That poor cat. It's recurring in my mind all day. Why are there evil people like this in the world?

I keep thinking about the terror that poor animal felt. The authorities are looking for these monsters still.

Where is justice?

Thank you for letting me vent. I just can't anymore

Future serial killers. Andrew Vachss, an expert in violent criminal behavior of adolescents, said that children who committed acts of violence against animals were openly demonstrating future behavior that would manifest against adults. He further claimed these children were incapable of changing their behavior, masking it perhaps, but they would always pose a threat to society in their adult years.
