They understand. They want to force women to remain in bad situations. The cruelty is the point.
This makes me so furious.
Literally every domestic violence study shows a pet being one of the biggest reasons an abused woman stays in a relationship right behind children. And the animal and children are often abuse targets too!
This will put the US even further behind in one of it's most shameful measurements, but, hey it might shave a couple thousand dollars off a multi-trillion dollar deficit entirely created by the military industrial complex, so fuck 'em.

Maybe on one balance sheet. On the total accounting of the nation, this will be harmful.
That's how modern businesses people think though: As long as their department has green numbers, they literally don't care if their actions cause the company a a whole to collapse. And these guys are trying to run a country like a business.
More evil from everyone’s favorite regime I mean administration. Animal welfare aside this only causes victims of domestic violence to delay or abandon looking for refuge.
Of course, they already know that and cruelty—as usual—is the point.
Republicans are the ones committing domestic violence. "Arsonist is against the fire department buying a new ladder truck."
Plenty of firemen start fires to put them out, wind up with arson charges.
Republicans shouldn't be allowed to hold office. Every one of their ideas is bad. Someone saying "I'm a republican" should get responses akin to someone saying "I eat paste" or "I kick puppies." Stupid or cruel, it doesn't matter, they're bad people.
It is shocking sometimes. I used to lean conservative. You'd think every once in a while some Republican would say something I agree with just based on probability, but no. If words have come out of a Republican mouth in the last 6 years, I can be nearly certain I disagree with them.
Actually Kristy said she murdered her puppy.
Vile, despicable human beings. At this point everyone who voted for this should be SHOT.
No, that's too merciful. Publicly hang them upside-down in DC, covered in flesh-eating beetles.
Well, what are they going to shoot? Kids at school?
"That bitch left me, and she took the dog."

Same party that delights in shooting dogs and hunting wolves. Fucking scumbags.
