Cruelty against animals
I was quite aghast when I read this story in the papers this morning.
The Seremban Municipal Council enforcement officers broke into a person's house and enforced a court order to exterminate the owner's dogs. There were 25 dogs. Now there are only 12 left. 13 were shot dead with guns! Not with tranquilisers or through some other more humane means, but with guns!
On technical and legal grounds, the councillors have the right to issue the owner an ultimatum to either give up his dogs or relocate the dogs elsewhere as there are simply too many dogs in a small house compound in a residential area. However to take such a drastic and cruel action so as to forcibly and painfully kill those dogs, is this the mark of a civilised society?
There have been many debates about dogs in Malaysia over the years. There have been moves by local authorities to ban dogs, as conservative muslims deem dogs to be uncleaned! Haven't the local authorities heard of dog shampoos?
What about cats or even other house pets? I ask. Why should pet ownership or animal rights be tied to religion? It's preposterous to even link these issues together! In history, I have heard of many instances of animal worships, but not animal ostracism! Perhaps I should google or go on wikipedia to explore this issue further.

Returning to Blogland
I am returning to Blogland now.....
Once again, I am penning my thoughts and insights on the web.
The new me? The cynical me?
Have I been rubbed raw by the ravages of life? Or have the trials of life made me a much stronger person?
Only time will tell I suppose....
At this current time, I am not thinking or doing much...except for obsessing with: Eye Maze
Has anyone tried this? If you haven't, try it. You will actually feel that work time is passing real fast.... =)
I am restless.....I need more excitement!
