Good example of when cruel and unusual punishment should be allowed

These two fine upstanding citizens drug another guy's dog who was house sitting for one of them. The dog's crime was soiling the floor. Sorry but that is no excuse.

This guy should be dealt with likewise.

That's the quote I was looking for when I posted this but ran out of time before I found it. Thanks for posting it.

Senseless and stupid crime, but it's still an animal. Growing up rural, troublesome animals were sold, put down, or eaten, but animals are still a responsibility. People shouldn't have animals if they can't act in a responsible manner.

That is horrible...poor dog.

I clicked on the link and my first thought was why would you let that skin head looking mother ****er in your house much less house sit?? Tying him to the bumper and dragging him "might" be too good for this one.

He's the piece of **** that was driving the truck.
Updated story on charges in following link. I think the cop should have let the dog loose on him for about a half hour or longer :

Sickening. I'm all for cruel and unusual punishment with these two sub-humans.

I agree 100%. Cheaper than jail. Oh, and while he's in there, don't feed him either. This is just sickening.

There is a pretty big difference between putting an animal down and torturing an animal. As indicated in the thread already, someone who would do something like this is capable of the same or worse against a person and we don't need him. Probably not worthy of the death penalty but I'd chip in for a one way trip to Antarctica for the lowlife scumbags.

How do we distinguish a cruel and unusual punishment for a cruel and unusual crime?

How do we distinguish a cruel and unusual punishment for a cruel and unusual crime?

The first title I came up with was not forum friendly and so the title I used was the best I could think of. The thing about the incident that gets me is that it was over the dog using the bathroom on the floor of the guys trailer. Its not like the dog attacked the guy or his wife or kids. It used the freaking bathroom. I am not advocating dragging a dog 5 miles if it attacks someone but I could see someone shooting a dog for that. Other than the needless death of the dog, the saddest thing about this is these *******s will probably get with light sentences.
