The news: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2023/06/22/former-military-man-fined-rm20000-for-shooting-cat-with-air-rifle/ Hopefully, one day, such malicious, intentional and cold-blooded killing of an animal will be equated to the killing of a human being with the same intent. This is certainly not self-defense. Why was only the minimum fine imposed? We have a long, long way to go in animal rights, but at least we…
