You know they put people in jail who abuse dogs as well *cough* Michael Vick *cough*, sometimes they put those people in jail longer than people who abuse women and children.
Ironically, any dog trainer would tell you beating your pet is not the way to get them to learn anything because dogs don’t understand why you are hitting him. Similar to how a 4-year-old may not have much understanding of why his father is beating him to the point he is battered and bruised for a week.
These are the same people who claim they hate domestic violence and would never put their hands on a woman under no circumstances, but seen no problem beating a minor. Funny how that hypocrisy works.
Here is what Lemon had to say.
