midlands - 10/30

There were two stories about animal neglect in the midlands that i can't understand. The first one was about some animal shelters that don't allow the adoptions of animals, specifically black cats. I don't understand how people could be that superstitious about black cats... that's like if we were selective on who we want to be friends with because of how they look on the outside. The second story was about a pitbull named Jasmine who was shot in the head twice. I don't understand how people can bring such harm to another life form for no reason. The news makes me sad :(.
