How Many Animal Organizations Help Dog Fighters And Animal Abusers

The world of dog fighters and animal abusers consists of many hidden places. They often keep dogs and other animals in out of sight locations like basements and rooms inside of a house or other structure. Humane investigators and so called animal cops rarely if at all can access much of the world of dog fighters and animal abusers. They are often limited to that which is in plain view, like in a backyard, and even there they can be greatly restricted, especially if they are humane investigators without full police powers, which is almost always the case. A dog fighter or animal abuser is rarely, if at all, going to welcome a humane investigator or animal cop inside of their house if one comes knocking on their door. If an animal cop or humane investigator does come knocking, the abuser can later simply move the dogs to another location after getting this unintended heads up from the animal cop or humane investigator. These terrible secret places of dog fighters and animal abusers, literally places of pain and horror, can be uncovered and shut down. Cops access these dark places on occasion during the course of their police work. Perhaps there is enough evidence of cruelty or dog fighting to obtain a search warrant. But even if there is not, police still may end up in one of these house of horrors during the course of their work. Perhaps they were let inside of the house to respond to an emergency situation, such as a domestic disturbance, or a medical emergency. Perhaps a search warrant was executed for drugs, or guns, or something else, at which time the horrors were revealed. Once inside the house or place of horror, and upon seeing the crime scene of animal cruelty or dog fighting, the police have every right to confiscate the animals and arrest the people for the appropriate animal cruelty and dog fighting charges. The problem is that few cops take action against animal abusers and dog fighters. The so called animal cops and humane investigators, with their often ineffective, toothless, even at times harmful investigations, and the animal organizations that back them or field them, are the enablers allowing the police to continue their poor response. Why do they do it- these so called animal organizations that are supposed to fight against inhumane treatment and against cruelty, not spread it? There is big money to be gained in contributions from an organization that can convince the public they actually are doing something about animal cruelty and dog fighting. Who is there to know better or question them? An unquestioning public that demands no accountability? The animals that cannot speak and reveal the truth? Responding to animal abuse and dog fighting crimes, or investigating these crimes, is not complicated or brain surgery. It is a task any cop anywhere in the United States can handle. Even if they do not want to handle the animals, someone else can do it. Perhaps one of the useless organizations can finally do something worthwhile. If there was widespread police enforcement of dog fighting and animal cruelty crimes, there would not be the ridiculously low number of arrests that presently exists. Dog fighters and animal abusers would finally have a real deterrent, and finally a real chance of getting caught and arrested for their crimes. Untold numbers of animals would no longer have to endure extreme pain. There would be a reduction in violent crime in general. Bottom line, violent crimes should only be investigated and responded to by public law enforcement. This includes the violent crimes of animal cruelty and dog fighting. No animal organization should be in the business of doing what the police should be doing. Instead, they should be advocates on behalf of animals, ensuring there is an appropriate and widespread police response to dog fighting and animal cruelty. Until that day ever comes, dog fighters and animal abusers, not animals, are the ones benefiting.
