Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / October 2006Man gets 8 years in prison for killing a cat
Says he did it for a "big laugh". I'll bet he is not laughing now. http://www.examiner.com/a-317504~Dallas_man_gets_8_years_in_prison_over_cat_deat h.html > Says he did it for a "big laugh".

Oh, the poor kitty and his person... So many people hate cats for reasons I will never understand. Just one more reason mine never go outside of our house. >> Says he did it for a "big laugh".

I encounter men who hate cats for a variety of poorly established reasons. The unmasked essence of their feelings come down to a few things. Some view the cat as a woman's animal - a frivolous puff of fur, an old lady's comfort item, and regard it with scorn. Others just can't stand the idea of a creature, particularly a small, defenseless one that will not play submissive to the usual macho posturing they use on dogs. So, they develop a hatred they really don't even understand as a compensation for their lack of macho validation. You may insert your own form of cat abuse equals penis equalization theory here, 'cause that's exactly what it is. You may insert your own form of cat abuse equals penis > equalization theory here, 'cause that's exactly what it is. that may be but, I think it has more to do with oppurtunity IOW, THERE ARE SO MANY DAMN CATS RUNNING AROUND a nut-job is more likely to encounter a cat than any other small innocent animal therefor when the sicko encounters this common encounter (a domestic cat) he ventillates on that common thing... it's a crime of oppurtunity, perhaps premeditated I don't think he should have gotten prison at all! I think he should have been put in a lions den > I don't think he should have gotten prison at all! > I think he should have been put in a lions den I agree!!! A very hungry lions den. :):):) > You may insert your own form of cat abuse equals penis > > equalization theory here, 'cause that's exactly what it is.

Punishment fits the crime. >>> Says he did it for a "big laugh".

This is the most moronic crap I ever read. It reflects your own emotional problems more than anything. People who commit acts like this are sick; they are not representative of an entire gender. Andy > This is the most moronic crap I ever read.

Did I say it represents an entire gender? No. To call them sick almost sounds like excuse making. They are morally deficient individuals who need to be dealt with just as this one was. >> This is the most moronic crap I ever read. It reflects your own >> emotional problems more than anything.

Yeah, I must have read someone elses sexist post complete with penis equalizing and woman/cat hating men. When you use no less than three gender specific references and they all belong to one gender a thinking person MAY assume bias. I don't know where you "meet" these people but the gross majority of men I meet don't match one of the traits you mentioned. Instead of defending your post you may have considered it just came off wrong. And while it may be my own form of "sickness" I totally agree with your last statement. Just because someone is sick does not mean they are exempt from "human" standards. "Eye for an eye" does it quite nicely for me! Not to mention, we all know people who do these things move on to even greater "heights" so we do a public service when we nail these criminals. Andy > Yeah, I must have read someone elses sexist post complete with penis > equalizing and woman/cat hating men. You are completely off base. He was referencing men who *do* hate cats, not allmen in general. The truth is more men abuse animals than women. And by the way, the term you are seeking is "sex" and not "gender" because gener is independant from sex. >When you use no less than three > gender specific references and they all belong to one gender a thinking > person MAY assume bias. Um, no. he was not making a generalization. > I don't know where you "meet" these people but > the gross majority of men I meet don't match one of the traits you > mentioned.

Personally I feel the punishments for animal cruelty and abuse should be as stringent as they are for human cruelty and abuse. -L. >> Yeah, I must have read someone elses sexist post complete with penis >> equalizing and woman/cat hating men.

When someone mentions all the things rob mentioned they intend to cause an effect in the reader (or they should not be surprised when it happens). Your asertion that more men do such and such than woman even if true is not relavent. There are plenty of woman who harm animals and other living creatures (even human). I still would love to know how rob is meeting these people and how he gets this deep insight into their hatred of cats and woman. There is no science in "I meet men who". As to gender vs sex; give me a break, stick to the subject. >> And while it may be my own form of "sickness" I totally agree with >> your last statement.

If Rob wants to discuss this he is way smart enough to do so. I dis-agree with part of what he said (or the way he said it) and I agreed with other parts. That's as much as anyone can expect. Third party debate adds nothing to such times but useless rancor (just the nature of the beast). Andy > > Says he did it for a "big laugh".

I am pleased that he got an eight (8) year sentence for this, usually the judge has a biased ignorance toward animals and gives people like this mere slaps on the wrist. Apparently, this wasn't the case this time. One of the biggest problem with some 'men' is they perpetuate the notion that anything other than a 'dog' somehow makes you effeminate. Most 'men' who fit into this belief, are the first ones to abuse small animals, commit spousal abuse, molest children or worse. > Says he did it for a "big laugh".
