3 Men charged in shark dragging incident

[Catherine]

I can't imagine what they were thinking when they did that. Putting the video up where everyone can see it was a stupid arrogance. I must not have occurred to them that what they were doing was wrong. It is not just that it was illegal, it was wrong. There is no excuse or reason the justifies the action. When it first happened, the governor of Florida spoke publicly condemning the cruelty. Shooting the shark is bad, but dragging it like that, there are no words to adequately describe it.

It is essential that they be charged and convicted. There needs to be a strong message that cruelty will not be tolerated and it will be punished.

That poor shark. It must have suffered and it would have been so frightened before it died.
