Bunny lady
Quote:
PORTLAND, Ore. – Washington County's "Bunny Lady" is back in the hutch after violating a court order banning her from owning animals for five years. Miriam Sakewitz, 47, was arrested Tuesday at a hotel in the Portland suburb of Tigard after an employee reported finding rabbits hopping around in her room.

Problems for Sakewitz started in October 2006 when police in Hillsboro, about 15 miles west of Portland, found and confiscated nearly 250 rabbits in her home, including about 100 dead ones in freezers and refrigerators.

Police said she broke into the facility where the survivors were being cared for in January 2007 and stole most of them back. Authorities found her a few days later in Chehalis, Wash., with eight live rabbits and two dead ones in her car. Another 130 rabbits were recovered at a nearby horse farm.

Sakewitz was sentenced in April 2007 to five years probation and was banned from owning or controlling animals. She also was told not to go within 100 yards of a rabbit.

That summer, Sakewitz was ordered to spend three days in jail for violating her probation by keeping a rabbit in her house. County probation officer Susan Ranger also said Sakewitz had canceled counseling sessions and refused to open the door for unannounced visits. Ranger said she found no rabbits when she finally got inside but did find a half-empty 10-pound bag of carrots.

bBoobies are hard to resist, too:

A staff member of Federal Liberal MP Sophie Mirabella has resigned over his behaviour at last night's Press Gallery Ball.

According to witnesses, Tony Scrinis, who had been working in Ms Mirabella's office for three days, approached a number of women and tried, or asked, to touch their breasts.

Ms Mirabella said the staffer admitted that "some of his behaviour was inappropriate but he doesn't accept the allegations."

Ms Mirabella is the Opposition spokeswoman for childcare, youth and the status of women.

Maybe there should be a thread called What the F&ck is wrong with People

Anyway - Woman skinned puppy to make belt
Quote:
MUSKOGEE, Okla. (AP) - A 23-year-old woman is accused of getting friend to kill her Jack Russell terrier and skinning the puppy to make a belt out of its hide.

Krystal Lynn Lewis and Austin Michael Mullins, 26, were being held Friday in the Muskogee County jail on $25,000 bail each. They were charged with one felony count of cruelty to animals.

"We're talking about a 6- or 7-week-old defenseless puppy," said sheriff's deputy George Roberson. "That's pretty heinous and sadistic."

A Muskogee County judge ordered a mental competency hearing for both defendants.

Lewis wanted the puppy, named Poplin, killed because it was a gift from a female ex-lover with whom she doesn't get along, said Muskogee County sheriff's deputy George Roberson.

Roberson said Mullins shot the terrier 10 times with a .22-caliber pistol. Lewis skinned the animal at her apartment and nailed the hide to a board.
I'd like to nail her and her friends stupid ass to a board. Sheesh!

What's the big deal? I wear leather shoes, etc. I know they are made from dead animal. Are we just not supposed to think about it? Are only certain animals acceptable? Is it that they should be processed at a proper factory? What exactly is supposed to be wrong with this, that isn't already wrong a million times every day?

He shot it ten times? A six or seven week puppy? Wouldn't there be a lot of holes in that hide? Would there be any hide left?

Remember, they were making a belt. So, they shot the belt-holes into it before stretching. Simple.

Fuckers. "This puppy is from your ex, so you have to kill it."
You could just give it away, psycho bitch.
Mind you, giving a puppy to your ex is gonna stir some shit.

Proof that if you don't keep your dog on a leash, you could be trampled by cows.

The whole reason I got my dog (Autumn) is because of this - well, not cows but horses. Autumn is a JRT and she was on a horse farm for a year. She was completely oblivious to the horses - would run right in front of them, etc. The owners were afraid she'd be killed so I got her...I have to keep her in a fenced in yard or on a leash because she's the same way with cars and SHE WON'T COME WHEN I CALL HER!!! Her nose rules her life.
