    Humans are animals. Why doesn’t it make sense to protect the rights of beings that can feel and know they exist over biological material that can’t feel or know it exists?

      Will someone please teach the mean old foxes that eating chickens is morally reprehensible, too? All animals are equal, after all.

        Do you base your moral code on what animals do to each other? That would allow a lot of fucked up things.

        you just want to argue or are brain damaged wtf does a predator hunting an animal for food have to do with unthinking killing of billions of chicks for no reason other than $$$.

        Nobody gives a shit about wild animals. If a farmer brings an animal into the world for agriculture, they are responsible for that life. Thats what people are talking about. Lions and tigers can eat all they want who gives a fuck.

          So animal rights only apply to certain animals who are deemed special by those in power. Where have I heard that before?
