She's Right! Some People Don't Deserve Pets

A friend of mine at work tipped me off to a story on the Indianapolis Star's Web site about two girls who were charged with animal cruelty after an animal rights group tipped off Indiana authorities about a video on myspace.com showing the girls kicking a cat wrapped in plastic.

What makes two girls -- juveniles, so their names aren't disclosed -- wrap a cat in plastic? What makes two girls shove, drop and kick the cat? What makes two girls videotape the entire episode? What makes two girls upload the video to a popular Web site? What makes two girls think they won't get caught?

Stump, the cat in question, has been taken from the home by animal-control officers, according to the story, and he is in good condition. The girls, on the other hand, if the charges are true, need help. Now.
