On February 8, a video of West Ham defender Zuma abusing a cat went viral on the Internet, and even though the player himself had apologized and assured the cat that he was in good health, he still could not prevent the incident from fermenting further. The Sun took the lead in publishing a video of Zuma abusing cats. In less than 40 seconds of video, the cat is thrown to the ground and kicked by Zuma like a leather ball. In another video, Zuma throws an object at a cat and, after catching up with it, slaps the cat in the face.
After the incident fermented, Zuma apologized to the outside world: "I would like to apologize to those who were offended by this video, and I also want to assure you that the two cats in our family are very good and very healthy." At the same time, Zuma said that similar incidents will not happen again.
However, Zuma's apology pales slightly. He will face a full range of punishments at the economic level, career level, and even judicial level.
Zuma's cat abuse has been heavily condemned. London Mayor Sadiq Khan also criticized Zuma's actions in an interview with the London Football Network. "Zuma's behavior is very despicable, and I think the parties concerned should join forces with the police to file a lawsuit against him." Sadiq-Khan said.
West Ham officials then issued a statement that Zuma was fined 2 weeks' salary (about £250,000) and that the fine would all be donated to animal charity. In addition, the club is supporting the Animal Protection Association in its investigation into Zuma's cat abuse. The players themselves are fully cooperating and feel extremely remorseful for their actions.
In addition, Zuma may face imprisonment. According to the latest news, more than 150,000 people have signed a petition calling for an official prosecution of Zuma for the abuse of cats. At present, the local police are investigating.
According to the Post, France introduced a harsh animal protection law in 2021, and animal cruelty can be punishable by up to 4 years in prison and a fine of nearly 50,000 pounds.
The good news is that the cats, who are currently abused by Zuma, have a new home. The property protection group RSPCA said the cats had been adopted and protected by them. "At the moment this cat is safe and under our care."
This is typical Western-style hypocrisy!
France sent its own troops to participate in the multinational force led by the United States, and when the burning and looting in the Middle East caused a large number of civilians to be displaced, and when they lost their loved ones, these people did not come out to stop it; NATO bombed the Yugoslav Federation, killing more than 2,000 civilians, including 88 children, thousands of people were injured, and also caused casualties among the staff of the Chinese Embassy in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
Now, when someone is abusing an animal, they jump out, as if in their eyes the life of an animal is more worthy of attention than the life of a human being, and they can turn a blind eye to the large number of casualties, but they cannot tolerate a cat being abused.
What absurdity and hypocrisy!
Usually this kind of organization will only find those celebrities to rub the heat, and can stand on the moral high ground to blame others, so that they can not only obtain a sense of moral superiority, but also prove the rationality of their existence, fame and fortune. And those public figures can only accept their accusations, after all, what they are doing is really not very honorable. These people or organizations dare not really face the more irrational things in society and say: NO.
It's like if you dare to scold an intellectual, because you know that intellectuals will tell you that it is wrong to scold people, but you may not dare to scold a rogue, because this rogue is likely to really beat you up.
Although animal cruelty is not right, but for many people who have not solved the problem of food and clothing, lack of food and clothing, and displacement, whether Western society should use limited resources to solve human problems first, rather than infinitely enlarge the problem of animal abuse, which occupies social resources and wastes legal resources, after all, at any time, people's interests should be put first.
The most typical scene is like the United States, whenever someone dies in a shooting, they will always fill the scene with flowers and candles to comfort the deceased and show their benevolence and fraternity. However, when they are asked to give up the possession of private guns, they will resolutely oppose it, and the candles can continue to be lit, and the guns must continue to be available.
It's really a split personality.
