Lady Freethinker.org

PETITION TARGET: Xie Feng, Ambassador of China to the United States


Cats in China are being force-fed acid, burned alive, thrown from heights, and doused in boiling water for videos then posted online, according to news reports.

Earlier this year, a person in China reportedly bragged about butchering several cats and said he planned to adopt more and live stream their deaths, according to an article on Vice.

The man reportedly belonged to a group of cat torturers who used Chinese social media to compare notes on how to kill the felines for "fun," according to news.

I am not sorry that I have zero sympathy for anyone who would hurt a defenseless animal.

It's no surprise that many sociopaths that become serial killers have a documented history of torturing animals.
