Legislature passes new animal bills

Laws have recently been instated to protect animals and their victims, by making the pet's owners more liable for attacks and making the punishments harsher. Also, stray animals will now be protected like the domesticated pets in animal cruelty cases. It's about time that justice is finally being delivered to the sick people that train animals to deliberately hurt/kill other innocents, or who starve and torture their pets. Man is paying his bestfriend back for years of companionship. It had previously been that if you were busted watching a dog fight in which dogs brutally tear each other to death you'd get a ticket for a class C misdemeanor, which is the equivalent of a speeding ticket, now it is a much more serious class A misdemeanor. This article "Legislature passes several animal bills" was interesting because it is surprising to find out that animals can affect the theme of a legislative session and get several bills passed.
