LORAIN -- A 6-week-old kitten was thrown from a moving car and police say a law enforcement officer did it.

Witnesses tell Lorain Police a man driving from Huron to Lorain was throwing kittens out his car window.

The witnesses trailed the man and called police. When questioned, the suspect said he was a police officer.

One survived and was found at the corner of W. 34th Street and Oberlin Ave. There's no word on any injuries of other kittens that may have been thrown...

1. Hang Him High!!!

It was probably Bill Frist, out for kicks, anyway....

[Tux]

15. Yeah!

Harming those that can't defend themselves must be stopped. If he wants to appear to be a "real man" (I know several that hates cats for being "feminine"), let him through a half-starved wolverine out his car window. I bet his attitude would change real quick.

[Zuni]

2. I can't even describe how disgusted I am

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

[ET Awful]

3. What a scumbag.

I propose doing the same thing to him, but at a proportional speed. . . we need to figure out the ratio of speed to kitten weight, then adjust the speed for his body weight . . . alright you mathematicians, give us the proper speed.

This asshole is supposed to be enforcing laws?

[Kagemusha]

9. The initial speed would be 100% the same.

Irrespective of body weight, a thrown object (or kitten, or man) would have the initial speed of the moving car. What would change is the rate of deceleration from air drag vs. momentum from the body weight.

[ET Awful]

14. Yes, but the initial speed must be varied to suit the body weight

That's the point. For instance, a man could be hurled from a vehicle moving at 20 MPH and potentially get his feet under him before he landed, a kitten most likely could not do so at that speed. So, the speed must be adjusted accordingly. :)

16. Considering he threw at least 3 kittens, 2 of which I believe died

I say we assume he was going 40 miles an hour, multiply it by 3, and do the drop.

How decimated would a human body be after hitting terra firma doing 120 miles per hour?

19. One word: Picasso. (nt)

[ET Awful]

21. Sounds reasonable, but we also have to consider the height

from which they were dropped in proportion to their own height. I think a low-flying aircraft ought to be comparable :evilgrin:

[dogday]

4. Trying a scare tactic to get the kitten to talk

must of gone too far. He will never know the information that kitty had.

[atommom]

11. But at least he made an example of that kitty, so all the other bad

kitties out there will admit their terrorist connections right away.

5. What a piece of shit

[Straight Shooter]

6. Oh, puke.

He better plan on changing his identity and moving.

OTOH, I'm sure there's a position in the Dept. of Homeland Insecurity for him. Maybe he can be an advisor in the interpretation of patriot act II.

7. I have a low opinion......

of anyone that messes with animals or children. I do believe there are special places in hell for people like this.

8. The initiation into the "Friends & Family Of Fristians?"

:puke: :nuke: How horrid!

10. Next nominee for U.N. Ambassador

Commander Cuckoo Bananas says

"Yes, he may a little rough around the edges, but that's exactly what those kittens at the U.N. need - some tough love"

[Coastie for Truth]

12. This is a "Sworn Officer" with a Gun, and Taser

and the power to brand a person "Arrestee" for the rest of their lives.

Image question: Why do I find this almost believable about a police officer, but impossible to visualize in, for example, a fire fighter or paramedic.

13. Maybe this asshole will claim religious freedom

Probably a Fristian.

17. It's real reassuring to know that someone like that

has a gun and authority.
:sarcasm:

[Mutley]

18. What the HELL?!?!?

someone should throw that asswipe out of a moving car! fucking son of a bitch!

:mad: :puke: :wtf: :argh: :freak: :spank: :hurts: :nuke: :scared: :thumbsdown: :banghead:

[xchrom]

20. hmmmm? and some wonder what is wrong with the police.

why would they do that?

wouldn't you be thrilled to have this scumbag on an abuse case?

24. O. M. G!!!! OK, I say we have at him! Where do I write to complain?

[BikeWriter]

25. I found a kitten in the middle of a busy highway one morning...

No clue whether his Mom had dropped him there or what. He was adopted by a coworker of mine. Named him "Freeway!"

[amazona]

26. at least it didn't happen in ponchatoula

What's with all the crazies running amok lately?

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
