Comments
Shame on you ODT for putting a positive spin on animal cruelty!
What century are we in again? This stuff belongs with cock fighting and bear baiting. A bunch of violent men inflicting extreme stress and pain on animals that just want to be left alone. I belong to several organisations that will work tirelessly until this perverse activity is made illegal. I can guarantee you that is coming soon.
