Animal abuse should not be taken lightly. Like domestic abuse and other crimes there needs to be consequences for theses awful actions. Starting back in 2016 there are now 11 states with animal abuse registry bills trying to get passed by their legislators. These states include Tennessee, New York and some counties in Chicago and Tampa, Florida. Not only will this help keep animals safe but the list "could also be a way to raise red flags about people who may commit other violent crimes ranging from domestic violence to mass shootings." Both Columbine shooters and Nikolas Cruz from the Parkland shooting all had a history of animal abuse before they moved on to larger targets. Hopefully this becomes a nation wide law so we can prevent future incidents.
