It's a shame---apparently no one in Texas is bothered by this. There isn't a single comment on this story on the news site. Of course I guess being a beef producing state, animal cruelty is something that must be ignored. Along with many other states and countries all over the world who make a living from animals.......

What else do you expect from the state of Texas? Isn't it the home of rednecks? I am aware that they have no respect for Native Americans and continually ignore Federal laws so ill treating a few pussies is right up their street. It is time that Texas was forced to respect all laws that have been passed, not just the ones that they feel like.

Are we surprised that the state that gave us George W. Bush might disappoint us in other matters?
