Hamlin pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of animal cruelty brought against him and four of his fraternity brothers in 1980, when he was an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. The charge was brought against Hamlin under a local Ann Arbor ordinance. All five members of Alpha Delta Phi were later expelled from the fraternity.

The details of the case, described in local media reports at the time, are gruesome. The house cat was captured, its paws were cut off, and was then strung up and set on fire. The killing, which occurred in December 1979, was allegedly prompted by anger that the cat was not using its litterbox.

This is all you need to know about the average gun nut piece of shit that stands in the way of meaningful change to address this country’s unique problem with daily mass shootings. Violence and cruelty are not an issue to them. They’re features.

I was like bro that was 45 years ago, then I read what they did… Yeah lock them up.

It’s a shame covid didn’t wipe us all out.
