Link to the article: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5331549/ Teens sought after puppies killed by fireworks Attacks also injured another dog in Oklahoma town James Gibbard / Tulsa World The Associated Press Updated: 7:08 p.m. ET July 8, 2004TULSA, Okla. - Six puppies were killed, apparently by fireworks placed in their mouths, shortly after teenage boys were seen carrying Roman candles in a north Tulsa neighborhood. Animal control officers said they were following leads Tuesday but had no suspects in Sunday night’s attacks, during which one person told police they heard a puppy yelp. An older dog, a 4½-month-old black Labrador mix, suffered burns on her muzzle and hindquarters from apparently being used as a moving target for fireworks. The Tulsa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was caring for the injured dog and for the puppies’ mother, a 1½-year-old black-and-tan heeler mix that was not harmed. The injured dog had begun to eat and was expected to survive, said Laurie Mayes, executive director of the Tulsa SPCA. The SPCA believes the puppies died from fireworks that exploded in their mouths. A woman, Tonya Curry, 27, found all the dogs Monday among the remains of fireworks inside a vacant house and took the two survivors to the SPCA. When an animal control officer arrived later, the dead puppies were gone. “Somebody probably went to clean up their mess so they wouldn’t get in trouble,” Officer Charity Curtis said. The SPCA has raised about $1,000 and other organizations were undertaking similar efforts to reward people who provide information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible, officials said. © 2004 The Associated Press.  |  IP: Logged Kyle Watkins Expert Film Handler Posts: 185 From: Stuart, FL, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 08-06-2004 09:32 PM                     What the F**K is wrong with people.

USA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-06-2004 11:02 PM                     About a month ago the same thing happened in the Seattle area. All the local tv stations covered it. Someone lit an M-80 firecracker and threw it into a horse pasture. The horse picked the lit M-80 up in it's mouth right away. The M-80 exploded in the horse's mouth and actually blew some of it's teeth out through the side of it's head in aditional to cracking it's jaw. The is going to survive and they still have not found the culprits. This was a horribly cruel thing to do to an animal the person(s) responisble ought to be shot!  |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 08-07-2004 01:26 AM                        They shgould make the f*kers slide down gaint rusty razor blades into buckets of alcohol... before lighting a match and tossing it in the bucket...  |  IP: Logged Tony Bandiera Jr Film God Posts: 3067 From: Moreland Idaho Registered: Apr 2004 posted 08-07-2004 01:50 AM                     I've got a perfect place to stick firecrackers in those kid's bodies....but this is a family site so I'll leave it to one's imagination.

What makes me angrier is that even if they're caught and do go to a Juvenile Detention Center, they'll get out at 18. What a wonderful judicial system.

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-07-2004 10:50 PM                     There is actually a perverted "macho" segment of society that seems to believe cruelty to animals is okay. Frankly, I don't think animal cruelty laws are harsh enough against offenders. The little bastards near Tulsa who killed those puppies very much deserve to be charged as adults, given felony convictions for what they did and be placed on a public registry. This may sound like extreme punishment, but please keep in mind this fact. Nearly all serial killers and perpetrators of other vicious murders of people get their start by torturing and killing animals for fun. The public has a right to be protected from such sociopaths. Anyone who thinks it is okay to do twisted things to animals should seek psychiatric help immediately. About the f**kheads who let a horse eat an M-80, I'd like to see them try that shit to my parents' horses. They'll get their vehicle riddled with gunfire in response. That's how bad it would piss off me or my father. There's plenty of other folks in that neighborhood who would do the same thing.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 08-08-2004 01:12 AM                       quote: Hey ,Can you tell me what Film-Tech policy this thread violates?
