Morning
Today i saw in the portuguese news that a new law, about animals abuse, was put in place.
Acording with the news i saw, animal abuser will face jail time for abuse inflicted on animals, up to a maximum of 2 years in case the abuse result on the death of the animal.
In the same story it was said that portuguese animals associations were happy with the new law but concerned that this law will have a poor enforcement.
I have to confess that im not a animal person, i normal just ignore animals, however i find it disturbing when i hear how some animals get misstreated. Because of this i do belive this law is a good thing.
My question is, do you belive this kind of laws are a good thing, and if yes does the sentence, possiblity of 2 years in prison in case of the death of the animal, is to much or should be higher?
Finaly does the contry where you live have similar laws?
Ps: sry for misspeling, gramar and anything else you can find wrong in the texto.
