Ellisville City, Mississippi abuses animals in their care!

The Issue

It is important because the unit where the Pittbulls are housed is cruel, and inhumane. The animals that are housed there are kept in a site without a/c during outrageously hot days. Furthermore, if an ordinary citizen were caught doing this to their dog, cat, or child - they'd be arrested - by the very same people who are doing this to our animals. And it's just plain wrong! It also reflects a double standard which demonstrates that the government who collects our tax dollars is guilty of abusing animals in the same way they accuse others - but, the government is getting away with it - and it must stop! The site must be destroyed immediately while a better and more humane site is created, and utilized to house Pittbulls while in the care of government authorities.

I have a passion for helping children to improve their circumstances along with helping animals - in essence? I like helping the voiceless who can't speak for themselves, and at times this gets me into a tangle or two because people do not believe you should be huggin' trees & makin' a fuss. Ok... so you say, but I see their faces and I just can't turn them down and I hope you feel the same way.
