Appropriate punishment for animal cruelty

The two suspects told Sayers and Detective Richard Ray that they drove to the site to shoot rabbits. "But one of the juveniles jumped out and said, 'I don't like these horses,'" Sayers said, "and they just went to shooting horses."
Ray said one suspect dislikes the animals because he was once injured by a horse.

As if shooting rabbits is any more justified.. Hick boys with daddy's guns. Gotta love the country!

Don't worry. Even if they get a slap on the wrist, idiots like that will end up doing something else that will land them in the clink for a more significant amount of time.. Then they'll be the ones taking shots.. If not, I hope those douchebags enjoy hell.
