Police say Keyleste Williams was drunk when he returned to his 6th floor Brooklyn apartment on Sunday morning around 3 a.m., got into a vicious argument with his sister, and threw his cousin Lateya's cat Shadow out the window. Shadow's (not pictured) fatal fall was heard by a neighbor, who only heard a loud thump and told the Post, "I thought it was bricks. I didn't know it was a cat. Oh, my God." Police charged Williams, 29, with aggravated cruelty to animals, plus torturing and injuring animals. But Lateya says her family doesn't want to press charges because he was intoxicated when he dangled the cat out the window and let go, "We just don't want him to come back home for a while...I would just want God to charge him." Related: The ASPCA on cats and falls—cats "may actually be at greater risk for injury when falling shorter distances... Shorter distances do not give them enough time to adjust their body posture to fall correctly."

It's the same media that NEVER mentioned Muslims' hatred of Israel as a possible motive for 9/11.

That family needs to stage an intervention. STAT.
"We just don't want him to come back home for a while...I would just want God to charge him."
OK, I'll agree with that, let God bring the charges and let PETA deliver the sentence.
Huh? Six floors isn't enough time to adjust their body posture? Is it better to drop them from seventy floors up?
"We just don't want him to come back home for a while...I would just want God to charge him." And how long do you think God is going to take before he charges him? You know God is a very busy man and I'm not sure if he will get around to this in the near future and old Keyleste might just freeze to death out there in the cold.
halp, i are not flying kitteh!
This kind of cruelty to animals is usually indicative of some large issues...
You think?
I hope someone one else in that house comes home drunk and throws his ass out the window!
Let me at him
I'll claw his eyes out!
I once dropped a mouse I captured in my apartment out of a 16th floor window. The little bugger fell for around three stories and then spread its legs out in every direction and just kind of floated like a leaf the rest of the way. It landed on top of some scaffolding and after around five seconds ran away, probably right back into my radiator.
Bra, you know you can't do that! If you catch them alive on those cruel glue traps (as opposed to the guillotine ones) you have to drown them in the toilet to put them out of their misery. :(
N.B.
Repeat as often as needed.
My mom just pour boiling water on them, faster than just drowning them.
How's cruelty to mice (in the form of glue traps, scalding water, throwing out windows, etc.) A-OK, but once some cat or carriage horse gets involved, it's worthy of universal outrage? The moral inconsistency drives me nuts.
Killing a pet in a drunken rage is sick, but In terms of cruelty to animals, I'd say those glue traps are a hell of a lot worse than a cat being thrown out the window (and presumably dying a quick death).
It's no different--some people are just ignorant. There's nothing more cruel than a glue trap. these high-metabolism animals will chew limbs, lose eyes, and pull joints apart to try to free themselves. They also dehydrate very quickly.
I hope the poster who mentioned boiling water was "kidding." That is barbaric and unnecessary.
There is a strong tie-in between cruelty to animals and subsequent domestice abuse.
I hate drunks.
Last time I came home drunk i ate left over pizza and then passed out on the couch.
Did God punish you with a hangover?
psycos unite!
The time for an intervention was when the parents named their kids Keyleste and Lateya...
this again?
Keyleste and Lateya... are perfectly acceptable names. If of course you don't want them to get a job in the mainstream white domineered oppressive society.
It sounds like he's an angry drunk. Too bad. A happier drunk would have included a slide whistle.
The Edge would think he's a douche.

Given this state of affairs, the cat was probably happy to pass away and escape that madhouse.
drop him a proportional number of stories.
people good.
