A horrible discovery by a Jefferson, West Virginia woman on Tuesday has investigators searching for suspects. Today, Jessica Bennett, the woman who found her puppy mutilated, its front paws cut off, watched as her fiance was taken in for a polygraph test after blood was found inside the house. Bennett says it was hard to watch her fiance go with deputies today. She was still distraught over finding her two-year-old puppy on the back porch of the house on Tuesday, surrounded by blood, missing its front paws. Maliki, the puppy, made it upstairs on the front porch and tried going inside.
WCHS reports Wednesday afternoon, Kanawha County deputies were looking for more evidence in the home, when they found the blood. They told Bennett that they had enough evidence to take her fiance in and give him…

WARNING: Distressing content. The vile footage is now being investigated by police after it was shared on social media
The shocking clip shows a male and female putting the helpless animal into the machine – before unbelievably switching it on.
As the machine starts, the cat appears distressed, which quickly turns to sheer panic as the water begins to fill up.
The couple are heard laughing off camera as the washing machine’s drum starts to rotate, spinning the cat violently at one stage.

The greedy interests of the very few who enrich themselves ravaging the life seas have turned his main defender, captain Paul Watson, a fugitive from the supposed “justice”. They are using no other than the courts of the country that boasts itself as “environmentalist”, which chase him for nearly thirteen years with a judicial cause invented by illegal shark fishermen and supported by illegal fishing mafias who kill marine wildlife in cold blood and without restrictions. It’s time to say “ENOUGH” to such injustice!
In most towns it would be considered unthinkably cruel to have a contest where citizens catch and kill an animal with no limit. But in the Southeast two rattlesnake “roundups” still exist where killing wildlife is supposed fun.
The target of the two roundups—in Whigham, Georgia, and Opp, Alabama—is the rare eastern diamondback rattlesnake. Populations of the snake have been so destroyed that, following a Center petition, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service found that these rattlers may need protection as an endangered species.
Rattlesnakes play a key role in the food web, especially in terms of rodent control. Because hunters often use gasoline to drive snakes from their dens, roundups are also harmful to hundreds of other species that share the dens as a home.https://takeaction.takepart.com/actions/transform-rattlesnake-roundups-into-a-humane-festival?cmpid=action-eml-recurring-snakes.
Take action below: Urge the mayors of Whigham and Opp to convert their roundups into wildlife-friendly festivals where no snakes are killed.

This is a proposal for a ‘Water Consumption Tax’ when purchasing meat, dairy and eggs. A person consuming meat, dairy and eggs is responsible for massive amounts of water usage for the production of the animal products, far more than a person living a plant based lifestyle. In some cities, households are limited to only 50 gallons of water usage per person a day and fined if they exceed that amount. The same should apply to omnivores who eat…

Meet Phoebe.
Phoebe is beautiful both inside and out! Her need is reported at WGME News 13.
Phoebe is one of the first friends I had on Facebook. That was before Facebook became such a tyrant to sell personal information and began deleting all profiles that weren’t considered sellable, like those of dogs and cats and transvestites.
In addition to being a pretty face, Phoebe is also a hard worker. You see, she’s the mascot for WHO@-KTD, a volunteer agency committed to putting an end to online teen bullying and keeping kids safe online.
Phoebe is also a Certified Therapy Dog!
Phoebe was recently diagnosed with cataracts and required surgery to avoid going blind. To complicate matters, Phoebe is diabetic. The cost to Jayne for the surgery and all other associated vet bills is over $5000.
Jayne has set up a Go Fund Me page and is…

Plant nurseries across the nation aren’t waiting for federal regulators to move on neonicotinoid pesticides, substances linked to mass die-offs of bees and other important pollinators.
Instead, as the public chorus to “save the bees” has grown from a fluttering to a loud buzz, many have taken the initiative to stop selling products that contain these chemicals.
That’s the finding in a new report from the nonprofit Friends of the Earth and the Pesticide Research Institute, which surveyed around 100 retail and wholesale growers across the country to get a “snapshot” of how the nursery and greenhouse industry is responding to growing demand for neonic-free plants.
While only about one-fifth of those surveyed responded, bee expert Tiffany Finck-Haynes at Friends of the Earth said the results were promising.
“What we’re seeing is a shift in policies on how to prevent bug infestations without using bee-harming pesticides,” Finck-Hayes…

Undercover investigations to expose animal cruelty on factory farms are no longer at risk of being outlawed, thanks to a recent veto in North Carolina. Thank the governor for vetoing this inhumane and unconstitutional bill.
An animal cruelty task force goes out into the community to look for cases of animal cruelty that may otherwise be missed. Thank the task force for their proactive work towards bettering the lives of animals and rescuing animals in need.

“He that takes truth for his guide, and duty for his end, may safely trust to God’s providence to lead him aright.” - Blaise Pascal. "There is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily" – George Washington letter to Edmund Randolph — 1795. We live in a “post-truth” world. According to the dictionary, “post-truth” means, “relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping public opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief.” Simply put, we now live in a culture that seems to value experience and emotion more than truth. Truth will never go away no matter how hard one might wish. Going beyond the MSM idealogical opinion/bias and their low information tabloid reality show news with a distractional superficial focus on entertainment, sensationalism, emotionalism and activist reporting – this blogs goal is to, in some small way, put a plug in the broken dam of truth and save as many as possible from the consequences—temporal and eternal. "The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it." – George Orwell “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” ― Soren Kierkegaard
