Washington, DC – Last week I read a disturbing article that described how a vigil for murdered cats turned violent. For an unknown reason, a man (who was arrested and released on bail) allegedly injected poison into dozens of cats, killing them. So during this vigil, the mob descended on what they thought was his home (it wasn’t), screaming and yelling, breaking windows, and even pepper spraying the occupant.
