This is wonderful. Melia & Cynthia, boy are you both taking a stand & doing something about dog fighting. You will be rewarded. 500 churches, that a lot of getting the word out & teaching all people especially the young, and a lot of eyes on the street. So proud to read about you both.

“A Massachusetts SPCA study concluded that those who attend dog fights are five times more likely to commit violent crimes against people.”

D’OH! It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. It’s all common sense of decency!

Just like I said before, anyone that would do such a horrible thing to innocent animals, would not hesitate to hurt children, elderly or any other person that they consider weaker than he/she. These people are sick and know no boundries about what’s right and wrong. In fact, they NEED to hurt others in order to feel good about themselves. We don’t need them in our society.

Way to go, Melia and Cynthia! You’re right on the money regarding a reduction in other forms of violence when dogfighting is eradicated.

Thanks for your courage in doing what’s right.

1,000 - 2,000 complaints each MONTH? Just in the Chicago area? Dear God, this has to stop! I am so happy to see a group of people who are stepping forward to work toward this. The connection between animal abuse and abuse against humans has been known for a while. Maybe this is the legacy the dog victims of the MV horror will leave ~ other dogs (and people) will not have to endure the suffering and death they did.
