The perpetrators of the recent spate of heartless and cruel crimes involving cats and dogs nailed upside down to wooden crosses must be apprehended and strong punitive measures applied against them.

If that does not happen, other equally tough and merciless criminal characters may soon be inspired and encouraged to resort to identical horrendous practices. This time, however, rather than nailing animals they would be subjecting humans to identical treatment either in revenge or as a lesson that they might wish to disseminate and transmit for their own wicked ends.

The perverse side of human nature being what it is, it often happens that once something innovative is introduced there is a tendency, especially in the criminal field, for escalation of the cruelty and frequency as time goes by.

Hopefully, the authorities concerned are taking meaningful and effective action to eradicate at the earliest the roots and causes of such infernal criminality.
