We Philly-stines have our sickos. Witness the brainless bozo who set fire to a young pit bull the other day.
But these little freaks in Tennessee take the proverbial cake.
Two boys, 14 and 11, put a puppy on a barbecue grill and cooked it.
That was after they'd tried to drown the poor creature.
Dregis Freeman, 10, tried to rescue the dog but was too late. Dregis said the boys told him they just wanted to see how the tail-wagger tasted.
The two heathens face charges of cruelty to animals.
Police didn't release their names, but we'll call them Jeffrey and John, after Dahmer and Gacy.
The worst human killers always start out with small animals. Let's not forget Robert Ramirez, the Night Stalker; David Berkowitz, Son of Sam; and many, many others.
And the best human beings care about their fellow creatures and try to make life better for one and all.
Thank you, Dregis Freeman, for caring.
