I say this needs to be talked about more than the two humans murdered - because the American people seem to care more about dogs being killed than about humans being killed!

It's power and control versus equality.

Apparently, misogynists find equality scary, are afraid of sharing power & can't trust their own loose grip on control.

Unfortunately, now the entire country gets to learn what many of us have experienced first hand & have known for too long.

RESIST! ✊️

Also...

There's a verifiable link between animal abuse, intimate partner violence, and mass shootings. The research is very clear.

In Colorado, we send animal abusers to Jail..........

Many in prison have history of animal/pet abuse as children, as well as having been abused themselves....

I am not for the death penalty and I refuse to advocate it for this guy, BUT if he goes to jail and someone accidentally kills him in a very painful way I won't give a shit.

I guess the Dog was a Democrat.

He has to live with himself for the rest of his life. With his lies, with the hurt he has caused to his own family and community, and with a complete loss of freedom. He did not value any kind of life, either human or animal. He deserves to feel the worst kind of torment.
