The prison guard has a harder heart than the prisoner

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,41101,00.html

Of course where did the kittens come from to begin with?

Personally, I think the guard should be put in the trash compactor just to experience what those kittens' last moments of life were. For some reason our judicial system is very lax when it comes to animal torture and animal cruelty.

Obviously, the kittens came from the mother cat that escaped. However, the question, I suppose, is where did the cat come from?

We can excuse the obvious (from her mother)...

My guess is the cat wandered onto prison property during the night (and obviously pregnant) and the prisoner befriended the cat and adopted it.

"He claimed the cats were deathly ill and the prison had no guidelines for the situation."

Are most people such morons that they can't think for themselves to ask their supervisor what to do in an unfamiliar situation, or was cruelty the order of the day? Or, more likely, was their supervisor/manager a bigger retard than they were?

When the apartment complexes around KTRK-TV were torn down for a shopping plaza/KRoger development, a lot of neighborhood feral cats were suddenly territory-less. They descended on the station in droves. Many were caught, trapped, and put up for adoption, but for the longest time you couldn't walk anywhere outside or look out a window without seeing a cat. Some of the (evil) managers wanted to lay out poison traps... luckily some kind-hearted individuals trapped nearly all of them and get them good homes.

Poisoning cats... yet another reason for my hatred and digust for those scumbag fucks Henry and Dan.

So, where on earth did you manage to find good homes for the managers which you trapped?

Alas, just from the commentary, I can't bring myself to read this story. I've had a bad enough day.

I remember reading about a prison that encouraged the inmates to take care of the feral cats that lived near and on the prison grounds. They found that it helped the prisoners calm down and be productive and kind to others.

Pitty this prisoner wasn't at that prison-on the bonus side, perhaps when they send the scumbucket guard to prison, they'll put him in the original prisoners cell.

either that or the trash compactor

Not likely. Cops, prison guards, etc. aren't placed in general prison populations for their own protection.

We tried a cat at one of our adolescent group residences. One of the residents killed it. Then we tried fish, but the tank was pulled over and all the fish died. Now we do plants, but they sometimes become projectiles.

It seems that humans forced to be where they don't want to be can lash out when angry, and hurting living things (even though they are not as advanced on the evolutionary scale) give more satisfaction than punching pillows
