Rapper DMX arrested on animal cruelty charges

[Catty1]

"her"...CBC typo, I guess (I copied and pasted that, so who knows?) Canada's public broadcaster...

With all the stories around, it seems clear that animal abusers come in both genders, and all shapes, sizes and colours.

It just seems to be the celebrities that really attract notice. Paris Hilton, if I recall, was told be Ellen Degeneres to get all her dogs spayed.

In another story on DMX's charges, several 'partially buried' corpses had been found in his yard as well.

Why he would barricade himself in his house baffles me.

Just another dirtbag doing what they do best, flipping off the law and laughing.

I liked ABC's coverage of this arrest because it included a few more
details. Especially the Sheriff who led the raid on the property. I really
like the way this Sheriff thinks.

Excerpt from the article:

"Sheriff Joe Arpaio has made stopping animal cruelty a major issue. He converted one of the county's air-conditioned jails into an animal shelter and moved the inmates into tents.

"A guy like this DMX character with all his money and fame has no excuse for not providing proper care for his animals," the sheriff said in a statement."

He can't party in jail?

Eff him, It only lends to his 'street cred'-which which equates to more sales of all the crap he produces and markets.

I guess that's another hallmark of a 'rap star' up to no good-a house out in the boonies.

Jail is too nice...he deserves the same fate as the partially buried dogs.

And my kids at school think he's a fine upstanding member of the community...just like Michael Vick.

Upstandin', front of the judge....

I've never heard of the loser but I hope he sees jail time.

You would think after Michael Vick, he'd be smarter. I've got no sympathy for him. My sympathy goes where it belongs, to the animals. I thought that as I got older, I'd get less upset about things and they wouldn't bother me as much. Not so. Not so at all.
