SHENAAZ SAY-Z:
Of Stick-y Savagery
Man, I can assure you, is a nasty creature. He demands, He deceives, He destroys!
And since the beginning of civilization, he’s been propagating this Veni, Vidi, Vici behaviour ubiquitously.
In the latest episode of the Malaysia Truly Beastly series, this brutish barbarianism has yet again been exposed extravagantly.
A letter and accompanying photos sent to Malaysiakini dated March 17th revealed a shackled dog with a mouthful of stick!
YES! A STICK!
To my surprise, I wasn’t surprised.
With the butchery of babies, the crushing of civil rights and legislation on lexicon, it seems almost natural to fetter a dog to a fence and feed it some timber.
Also not blood gurglingly shocking is the complete and absolute show of apathy by those who bared witness to this gruesome scene.

We doggedly refuse to concern ourselves with something as pedestrian as the welfare of the animals in our “custody”.
For we would much rather train them for our sadistic amusement; slaughter them for our gastronomical indulgence and subject them to torture for our “security”!
Hence, as is with most animal cruelty cases in this country, the chorus of outrage will begin, torrential tears will be wept and animal activism will be re-awakened.
And with a modicum of luck, these Malaysian mindset-manufactured monsters will get a verbal walloping. But justice will not be served for this poor dog.
One must be delusional to believe otherwise. The circumstances surrounding the stick shoving, shackling and subsequent release of the dog still elude me.
But what has become damningly apparent is that Malaysia
