Cop Shot Litter of Kittens in Front of Screaming Children
Nonetheless, the police department chief says this cop did nothing wrong.

June 12, 2013 |
On Monday in Ohio, animal control Officer Barry Accorti shot and killed a litter of kittens in front of freaked-out children nearby. “He informed [a witness] that shelters were full and that these cats would be going to kitty heaven,” Ohio SPCA Executive Director Teresa Landon told the Sun News.

Landon said the home owner, who had called for help, assumed the officer "would be trapping them or something and taking them to a shelter and they would be humanely euthanized if they were not adopted."

“Instead, he went to his truck and got a gun, which she thought was a tranquilizer gun, and walked around to the back of the house and approximately 15 feet from her back door shot and killed the 8- to 10-week-old kittens.”

The stunned observer alerted the Ohio SPCA to the officer's actions, and the animal rights group responded with a Facebook campaign to "expose" the behavior and call for accountability.

“Her children were upstairs in view of the windows. They started screaming and crying because they heard the gunshots. They started screaming, ‘Mommy, he’s killing the kittens,’” Landon said, “It’s heartbreaking… There is no excuse for it. It’s absolutely shameful that someone with the title of humane officer would do this.”

North Ridgeville Police Department Chief Mike Freeman released a statementdefending Accorti, who the Ohio SPCA has demanded be fired and charged with animal abuse.

“The cats were located within the wood pile and euthanized,” Freeman said, “The cats were removed from the wood pile and taken from the residence.”

He decided Accorti’s “actions were appropriate,” and will not “impose any disciplinary measures for the incident.”

I hate stories written like this. What are we supposed to focus on, inhumane treatment of animals or inhumane treatment of animals in front of freak-outed children.

stupid news reporters.

There's fundaraisers for feeding starving kids like "Save the children" Why isn't there fundraisers for taking care of the cats in homes to poor to feed them?

Maybe Jasper you can ask your AlterNet broh's to create a fund, maybe call it something catchy like "Feed someone's fukn cats."

Fuck yeah......get some
 
Shit my dad always told me growing up he'd take boxes of homeless kittens with him out on the boat and go trolling for Musky with them when he was a kid.

Then again I grew up in a house where by the time you were 10 you were killing, cleaning, and eating animals you named and raised. I can't actually remember a pet cat of mine surviving more than 6 months or so without being eaten by dogs, hawks, coyotes, owls, or whatever other fucked up predators mother nature cooked up.
