Man Allegedly Punches Girlfriend's Pet Rabbit After Argument About Women's Rights

A Florida man was arrested after allegedly attacking his girlfriend's pet rabbit following an argument about women's rights. According to a Boyton Beach Police report, James Wertz became enraged when his girlfriend told him that she wanted to end their relationship after he refused to stop arguing and screaming.

The 28-year-old suspect then allegedly began "punching and squeezing" the woman's pet rabbit, according to Boynton Beach Police media representative Stephanie Slater.

The woman intervened and Wertz apologized, but when she tried to call 911, Wertz physically threw the woman across the room, according to the Palm Beach Post.

The rabbit was beaten so hard that it bled from its face, but it is expected to recover. The woman's arm was a little marked up but she was otherwise uninjured.

Wertz was charged with animal cruelty and domestic battery.

If this is how he reacts to a breakup it’s probably the right decision to break up with him!

You just don’t know until later. A kind caring guy who loves his mother and would do anything for you is probably gay. (a joke for those that need explanations)

As a kid I did a lot of rabbit hunting. Would have to wring their neck if my 410 didn’t do the job.

410? That is sporting. As a kid I would use a 12ga
on the jackrabbits when the pheasant hunting got slow.
A no class kid.

We had a 12, 20, and a 410. I was the youngest and got the last pick everytime. Although sometimes I used my 22.

A guy in Dallas beat his girlfriend and threw the cat off the balcony. He got 10 years in prison for the cat but let him off for what he did to the girlfriend.

My oldest boy is a real wabbit reaper. He bags one all the time with his pellet rifle then makes me go outside with him to clean them. His mama objects of course but I have let her know that with the direction this country is heading that he will most likely be feeding the family full time with all the critters he brings home.
