Animal Cruelty Prison Time More than 1 Year

The Issue

Each day an animal is beaten. Even to death. When this happens to a child, the person is thrown in jail for years. A person who harms an animal, who doesn't even have opposable thumbs, can get up to 1 year in most places. Some up to five years. It's extremely rare, but up to ten years too. Not most people even get one year! Many of these animals become deformed, lose limbs, or even lose eyes. Why? Little beings that thought that they would get someone to care about them all of their life. They can't even get their own food! Nor can they reach it! Evolution has done us, humans, well. And we get to take CARE of these animals. We nurture them, and in their own way...they nurture us... and take care of use. So why would people hurt these animals? Why? it honestly breaks my heart. One year for cruelty, torment. One year, if you are lucky. 

Let's change that. Let's make a difference. Make these people realize that this isn't okay. Hopefully, we can get the numbers to go down, too. Let's get this on the news, rather than Donald Trump's hair.  Let's do this!
