Two of the founding members from Rescue Ink, Joe Panz and Big Ant, joined me in this episode to talk about the work they do to help animals that are being neglected and abused. Their work is featured in the recently released book, Rescue Ink: Tough Guys on a Mission to Keep our Animals Safe, written by Denise Flaim. They shared with me how the non-profit organization, Rescue Ink, was started, discussed the two stories in the book which featured them, and how Rescue Ink strives to educate people on how to better care for their pets. If you're a fan of the Rescue Ink television show or the book and the work they do to help animals, be sure and check out this episode.

“Emotional abandonment is a subjective emotional state in which people feel undesired, left behind, insecure, or discarded. People experiencing emotional abandonment may feel at a loss. They may feel like they have been cut off from a crucial source of sustenance or feel withdrawn, either suddenly or through a process of erosion. Emotional abandonment can manifest through loss or separation from a loved one.[1] Feeling rejected, which is a significant component of emotional abandonment which has a biological impact in that it activates the physical pain centers of the brain and can leave an emotional imprint in the brain's warning system.[2] Emotional abandonment has been a staple of poetry and literature since ancient times.[3]” “In America there is an animal welfare organization called Rescue Ink, in which outlaw biker gang members volunteer to rescue animals in need and combat against people who commit animal cruelty, such as breaking up cockfighting rings, stopping the killing stray cats, breaking up dog fighting rings and rescuing pets from abusive owners.[85] In the American prison system, prison gangs are often known to physically harm and even kill inmates who have committed such crimes as child murder, being serial killers, pedophilia, hate crimes, domestic violence, rape and inmates who have committed crimes against the elderly, animals, the disabled, the poor and the less fortunate.[86][87] In many minority communities and poor neighborhoods, residents often distrust law enforcement, as a result the gang syndicates often take over to "police" their neighborhoods by committing acts against people who had committed crimes such as bullying, muggings, home invasions, hate crimes, stalking, sexual assault, domestic violence and child molestation, as well as mediating disputes between neighbors, the ways that the gangs would punish such individuals could range from forced apologies, being threatened, being forced to return stolen objects, vandalizing property, arson, being forced to move, bombings, being assaulted and/or battered, kidnappings, false imprisonment, torture and/or being murdered.[88] Some criminal syndicates have been known to hold their own "trials" for members of theirs who had been accused of wrongdoing, the punishments that the accused member would face if "found guilty" would vary depending on the offense.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

Jon Patch and company talk to Johnny O of Rescue Ink. With his "Clark Kent" glasses and ski cap, Johnny O’s look is best described as "coffeehouse biker." A former personal bodyguard, he loves the martial arts, reflected in his tattoos of symbolic Chinese animals, from a fiery dragon to a contemplative crane. Like all the guys, Johnny O is a pit-bull advocate -- he owns two, look-alikes named Lucy and Chuck -- and he educates about their undeservedly bad rap every chance he gets.

Your Hard Earned Contribution to the AHA: Did you know the phrase "No animals were harmed®" isn't free for anyone to use.   A lot of feathers get ruffled when a Denver organization flexes its litigious arm after the common vernacular becomes a trademark infringement.  Have you ever known anyone so passionate for the 'cause' that they actually do harm?
