Chris , are you just taking the we? How could we possibly qualify its precise meaning each time? (Oops, sorry, Im asking on behalf of society, not DD and me)

DD, the syntax is faulty. It's necessary to qualify "we" since without qualification, misunderstandings can arise. I really thought that your "we" referred to humanity in general: who is in error here: is it I for making a false assumption or you, for failing to make your meaning clear? The "we" could be used without qualification only if previous reference had been made to a group which defined it.
Carpe diem.

Two of the three have to do community service as well. I find it very strange that if this was a dog owner that had done it to their own dog then it would have been dealt with much more harshly but it would have been the RSPCA prosecuting and it would have gone to court. This community reparation scheme is a cost saving project but of course in many cases it also dodges justice.

Theres a direct correlation between recession...animal or child cruelty increase...miss use of of animals via breeding to make money etc etc We seem to breed a low empathy aggressive unhappy youth who take pleasure in suffering & violence. As society is distracted by consumption. Money. Possessions .material things .debt junk tv & culture . Sectors of people dont even think or just consider their own rights&" needs" Ie: im angry and drunk. Bored. Ill bash these animals for fun...cause i can. They dont matter. The commodification and misuse of animals will continue....

We had quite a spate of similar cases locally on the Wirral only a few years ago, someone was going round systematically sexually mutilating horses.
