My State Senator is a MORON...supports Cock fighting...
Ken Cuccinelli here in Northern Virginia voted against a bill, along with 5 others, that actually got out of committee that would stiffen the penalty for cock-fighting to possibly include jail time...

Besides being unusually cruel, cockfightingf is a haven for illegal activity...gambling, drugs etc...

http://www.roanoke.com/politics/wb/wb/xp-102306

Here are some of the reasons these 5 gave...


Sen. John Watkins said Reynolds' bill would criminalize the sort of frolic he pursued as a child growing up on a farm.

"Every now and then I would throw two anxious roosters in the same vicinity, particularly when there were a bunch of hens around, just to see what would happen and nine times out of 10, they would fight," said Watkins, R-Powhatan. "Would I not be, at that point, in the commission of a felony?"

Sen. John H. Chichester questioned how authorities could discern fighting fowl from other roosters.

"How do you know that the game chicken wandering around my house there, whether I'm training it or not training it is there as an ornament or it's just chasing people up and down the sidewalk," said Chichester, R-Stafford.


It's amazing the state that produced Warner, Kaine and Webb can alos have such bat-shit crazy asswipes like Cuccinelli, Allen and Goode!!!

Bat shot crazy thing he has supported...

He introduced a law to ban lowrise pants for kids under 18...

And supported a law that required mothers who had miscarriages to report them to the state to make sure they weren't aborting their babies...

7. Kooch couldn't possibly be a bigger waste of skin.
I've got a repug Rep as well (Davis), but at least he appears to be sentient. Wrong on damned near everything, but sentient.

Zoosadism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

, cited by Rosenbauer 1997) coined the term zoosadism for those who derive pleasure from inflicting pain on an animal, sometimes with a sexual component. Some extreme examples of zoosadism include necrozoophilia (a portmanteau between necrophilia and zoophilia), the sexual enjoyment of killing animals, similar to "lust murder" in humans, sexual penetration of birds such as hens (which is fatal to the hen) and strangling at orgasm, mutilation, sexual assault with objects (including screwdrivers and knives), interspecies rape, fire or burning, and sexual assault on immature animals such as puppies.

Modern research, and most sexology information sites (if sufficiently detailed), are usually careful to distinguish zoosadism, the enjoyment of causing suffering to animals, from zoophilia, the emotional or sexual bonding with animals: Humboldt Berlin University Sexology Dept (list of paraphilias) sex-lexis.com and sexualcounselling.com.

Zoosadism committed with the intent of causing suffering or pain, is often considered a dangerous warning sign of a potential abuser towards humans too.
