A disturbing video shared online and by local news outlets allegedly shows a man in El Paso, Texas brutally kicking, throwing, and punching a dog in public. The footage has sparked outrage, and for good reason. If someone is willing to hurt an animal so violently in public, it raises serious concerns about what may happen behind closed doors. Animals deserve safety, not fear.
Thanks to social media and an anonymous tip, authorities identified the alleged abuser. However, under current Texas law, the man could still be allowed to own animals again. That puts future animals at risk. Animal abuse is not a minor offense. It is a clear warning sign and should be treated with the seriousness it deserves.
