Poor Police Response To Animal Cruelty Supported By Animal Organizations

         It was brought to the attention of a number of animal organizations, including their executives and other officials, regarding the poor police response to animal cruelty and dog fighting. This was not hypothetical information. To a person, they feigned interest at best, and did nothing.
         Anti drunk driving and anti domestic violence organizations would never stand idly by and allow for a poor police response to those crimes. Unfortunately, when it comes to animals, many animal organizations have found it lucrative to keep the illusion going that they are the voice for animals, no matter how untrue this might be.
         If anyone is interested, which unfortunately seems not to be the case, the police response to animal cruelty and dog fighting can be accessed. All calls to 911 are recorded. In one large city alone, of the thousands upon thousands of calls made to 911 regarding dog fighting and animal cruelty, hardly a single call results in police action. No report taken, no animal recovered, no one arrested. 
         There are reasons why crimes are not addressed by ineffective token police teams. There are reasons why crimes are not addressed by non police entities or organizations, even if some of these organizations are granted police powers. There are reasons why humane investigators are often ineffective or harmful, including in the way their "investigations" are frequently opportunities (or early warning systems) for dog fighters and animal abusers to move their animals to other locations.
         There are reasons why the only effective way to combat crime is to have a widespread, consistent law enforcement response. This will never happen in regards to animal cruelty and dog fighting as long as animal organizations continue exploiting animals for their own gain, and continue in their failure to change how both they and the police respond to these crimes.
