Pebbles, meet Bam Bam

Humanity's love affair with animals continues apace:

[John Edward] Peterson's 6-year-old daughter and 8-year-old stepson told police their father had been drinking vodka all night from a 1.75-liter bottle. When Pebbles the cat clawed him, he threw the animal against the wall, trapped it in the corner of the bedroom and punched it with his fist until it was dead.

Why do I always feel an overwhelming desire to post this kind of stuff?
