Vile couple are arrested after throwing kitten like a FRISBEE off Florida beach and demanding $1,000 to stop – cat survived and is adopted by rescuer
A couple is facing charges after they were filmed torturing a small kitten while swimming at a local beach – throwing the helpless animal feet in the air like a pool toy and into the shoulder-deep water.
When approached by outraged onlookers, the suspects, 27-year-old John Laguerre and Jamarria Wayne, 22 – joked and demanded $1,000 from the Good Samaritans just to stop.
‘They were throwing her like this into the water,’ Miami resident Natalia Martin recalled of the abuse, which spurred her to rise up from her towel and confront the kitten’s attackers. ‘They were trying to make her swim and the cat was so scared, she was passing out already. She was half alive.’
However, upon approaching the young couple – who was filmed wading in the Florida waves as Laguerre clutches the limp kitten with one hand – Martin was rebuffed by the couple, who allegedly began to intimidate the woman.
‘The guy started being so aggressive towards me,’ Martin told Local10 of the ensuing standoff.
‘He starts stepping up,’ she said of Laguerre’s response to being reprimanded during the episode, which occurred on September 24.
‘He says, ‘Hey, look, this is my cat. This is not your business. I can do what I want,’ she said. . . .
Eventually, police approached the couple about breaking the ‘no animals on the beach’ rules, and asked them to leave the premises.
That’s when, according to a police report, Laguerre resisted arrest, hurling profanities at officers while defying their orders to vacate the beach without incident.
The woman, meanwhile, reportedly screamed at the officers, threatening them and saying she would ‘bite them,’ cops wrote.
Eventually, matters escalate to the point where the encounter became physical, forcing eight officers to force down the resisting pair on the sands of the beach and put them in handcuffs. . .
‘I took this cat. I adopted her officially two days after this incident,’ Martin said.
She has since found a new home for the kitten, who did not sustain any visible injuries.
The case against Laguerre and Wayne is currently ongoing.

Meanwhile, in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg (Not Florida) Russia, cats are doing God’s work daily:
Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg houses one of most important art collections in the world. Since it's creation, museum has had an exceptional vigilante patrol; 70 felines that chase away rodents, thus ensuring the integrity of works.#archaeohistories pic.twitter.com/SD4PWWTTcP

Part of me wants to cry, and part of me wishes things on that vermin that I won’t post as it would would draw Sauron’s eye.
What’s that six letter word that keeps flying in my head?
Kurtz had it right.
…all the brutes
JWM
Draw not Sauron’s eye.

Kurtz said “whore”…no, wait. That’s five letters. Get’s out his eraser.
Great comment and editor’s follow-up.
Apparently the very deeply tanned fun couple was reliving some cultural memory, a revenge fantasy if you will, reversing the roles more typically played by cats and negroes in their native climes. But much, much, much larger cats. Also occasionally involving crocodiles. And hippos. And snakes, lots of snakes. Also scorpions. But all they could get their hands on was a kitten, so kitty got played.
They are vile creatures.
I don’t mean the kitten.
A protected class was held accountable, that is shocking.
Is it because the cat is black? (snark)
A black cat crossed the path yesterday and then I found some money further up the street.
Different cultures approach cats differently. I belong to the one that loves cats, as a species. Here, we have had more cats than you can count, because: farmstead. I once brought one back from Italy; it’s a long story.
I got lost in some dingy back halls at The Hermitage, but did not come across these legendary cats. Catherine’s (Robin’s Egg Blue) Palace is the main building, and it has cracked windows and some filthy parts – it is old and survived the Soviet Era and world wars. On an interesting side note, I walked to the museum on a quiet Sunday morning, through the empty streets of Saint Petersburg, and encountered no dogs or cats. The city is big, and yet it contains a relatively small human population (about 5 million, iirc). It makes me think that this beautiful city never has recovered from the Great Patriotic War, or the Soviet Era.
Civilization advanced from mud huts and dung fires, to Michelangelo and cathedrals just not at the same rate in all places. And civilization provides the civilized with the leisure to domesticate wild animals and provide charitable donations to their mutual benefit, companionship, and comfort.
Some wild animals resist the kindness and are not evolved into gentler, calmer, less aggressive, and less violent versions of the parent pattern. Those feral creatures cannot be domesticated, though some might make a partial adjustment to living away from the wild; by and large they do not find civilization suitable to their nature. I’m thinking of the house cat compared to the lion, but there are other examples.
i see what you did there 🙂
Doubtful I’d have been so kind. I do not do well with animal cruelty. Today we picked up our Caramel (12) at the crematorium and 2 weeks ago today our Bella (9) died. 2 good friends in 2 weeks. Now we have just Tawny Autumn (12), Caramel’s sister, and Sparkle (8), Bella’s youngest birthling, and of course my Shannon (8). Right now we have the lowest amount of pets than we’ve had since 1988. In a way it feels kinda lonely. My daily workstation has 2 different computers linked together with 2 different 27″ monitors. The monitor on the left has a big pik of Caramel on the desktop and the one on the right has Bella. I might have to change that because it’s difficult to see them staring at me, and I’m unable to touch them. I’ll get over this eventually.
My little dog got hit by a car a month ago and I still grieve. If the two mugs in the video got hit by a car, I’d be like ” whatever”
There was so much water that could have been put to excellent use. So, how long does it really take to drown a pair of violent kafirs….? Not long, I bet.
Groids.
The Hermitage is home to an early Tiffany panel, Magnolias. They allowed it to travel with a Tiffany show that premiered in Paris and then to Richmond where I went to see it. I stood in front of this particular window for over an hour studying the coloration created by someone over 100 years ago. They sure knew their shit and had the added unbelievable gift of Arther Nash who was Tiffany’s glass chemist. This guy made the glass for Tiffany’s lamps, panels, mosaics, and for blowers. The artist had 100s of colors to choose from and he created the same color with up to 7 variations in the shading or density of that color. Literally, 1,000s sheets to choose from, all carefully categorized and arranged in racks.
Magnolia is a large panel with big pieces of glass, There are 6 flowers. A cursory glare will tell you all are a creamy white opalescent. But on close inspection, you will see each one is very, very subtly colored differently. For example, hints of the lightest and softest mauves & purples might run through one. In another, varying hints of ochre. Another with a chrome green. You might think it to be a wild mish-mash but the colorist was such a master that it shows beautifully, all flowing together.
But wait, there’s more. Each of the flowers is seated in a bed of large leaves just as you’d see on a magnolia tree. And each of those leaves picks up the subtle hints of the colors in the flowers they surround. As I said, a quick glance will show you big creamy white magnolia flowers in a bed of green leaves but man, the person who cut this out was a master.
Here’s the panel

The image is nice but the window was spectacular.
The museum used an image of Magnolias to advertise the show in a couple of large, vinyl banners(about 7′ long) that they hung from balconies. After months of back and forth with the museum’s art director, I sent her a gorgeous fused lamp for one of those banners. The reproduction of the panel is very well done, I can see the wonderful work of the colorist quite clearly as it’s a full-scale reproduction. It hangs in my home.
I wasn’t impressed with the care The Hermitage took of the window, especially for one on loan. It was dirty with built-up grime all around the came channeling and in a crappy frame. Shame, like seeing bird poop on the Pieta.
Great story and fabulous information. Thanks.
Years ago, I was at PetSmart when I saw this beautiful kitten at the adoption center. Very friendly. Sweetest feline around. I read his info when I noticed something written on the back, from the local animal rescue organization. It said,
“In my old neighborhood, the kids on the street loved to play ball with me. I was the ball.”
My blood froze, then boiled over.
Needless to say, someone adopted kitty that day. Not me. Someone else.
As for those two, if there is a crime that justifies prison time, it is animal cruelty. They should have rot behind bars.
We all knew it would be negroes before the video even got there.
Didn’t we?
What does that say about America in 2022?
Not good things, I think.
