I also think it's extremely cruel when you see people wearing fur and real leather, it's like walking around in someone elses skin just for you to look "fashionable" and that's sick.
I remember a story once, where kids were swinging a cat round by it's tail, I hate things like that when people are cruel to animals for the fun of it, to get a few laughs or to seem "cool" infront of friends.. how would they like it if someone bigger than them came upto them and started treating them like that for a few laughs.

Like I said, in my opinion it's fair to do test animals if it's something important like a cure for a disease, but if it's just for fun and enjoyment, its horrible.

Isn't there a synthetic material that's like leather but doesn't come from animals?

Okay, well I'm against anything to do with cruelty to animals, show me an RSPCA advert and I'm in tears.
I hate animal testing when it's for things we don't need such as cosmetics, and perfumes. But if it's a cure to a disease that could save hundred's or even million's of peoples lives, I'll let them get on with it..
Animal testing is cruel to animals, but who would you prefer it happen to, a human who has a family and friends, or an animal?
animals have family and friends too, but they aren't as sophisticated as humans

Humans need natural enemys too, but nobody eats us and that's why viruses and other stuff attacks us. I feel bad when someone dyes, but there are too many people on this planet. And more and more people don't have a job or a place to live. I'd rather die than live like that, but that's just my opinion.

i don't agree with animal testing, but if you show me a picture of a rabbit, and a 4 year old girl dying of leukemia, guess who i'm going to feel sorry for.

Animal rights activist are no more than terrorist, they bully, torment and in cases kill human beings to try and prove a point. I will take the idea of animal testing seriously when they grow up and start actng like adults. Until then i am on Medical science side.


Steph, I'm an animal rights activist. I've never terrorised anyone, neither have any of the other activists I work with, I bet you got that belief from the media. If you look a little further, you will see that the media do a lot of covering up.

Did you know that side effects from drugs are a bigger killer than all cancers put together?

The reason for this is that human animals and other animals are 95% physiologically differen't, dogs react differen't to drugs than humans do.

Animal testing CAUSES cancer. Huntingdon Life Sciences (a lab) create chemicals and products that have actually been known to cause cancer.

So you would rather see 300 monkeys be given a disease they wouldn't naturally suffer from, than use the disease already in a human and study that?

Ask a vivisector (animal experimenter this) Why do we test on non human animals? they will say "because they are similiar to us?"

Ask them why its OKAY to test on them and they will say "because they are not similiar to us".

If you really want to see how animals in labs are treated, watch this cruelty footage http://www.shac.net/MERCHANDISE/videos.html

This lab kill 500 animals a day.

Speciesism:

The belief that the interests and well being of ones own species are more important than that of any other, regardless of how capable others are of suffering, experiencing pain.

Racism:

The belief that the interests and well being of ones own race are more important than someone with another skin colour, regardless of........


Why do you think humans think of themselves as more important than other animals? We are animals too after all?

Yeah. I think it's stupid that some ppl are trying to teach gorillas to speak and act more like a human being. That's just so stupid.Animals don't need us for anything. Animals are wiser than we are. Only a few animals got killed by the tsunami for example, because they're not stupidly curious when it comes to danger.

'Stupidly curious', I like that expression, that would make a cool band name Razz

Thanks for that link, I haven't seen that site before. My friends are actually doing the running of the nudes in Spain this year.

I've been doing quite a bit of anti vivisection stuff lately.

Egzactly. They can live without us, but we can't live without them.
And I hate that shit that animals don't have souls. They even have higher spiritual power than us.

Early philosophy has shaped alot of the way we think today. Famous writers from early Rome (Aristotle and Aquius) wrote :

Man was created in the image of God. Beast and man are seperate. Man must not feed a hungry turkey unless the end result is that man eats the Turkey.

Early philosophers and religion believed that animals had no souls and only humans went to 'heaven'. Sadly, whether we even realise it or not, we still live by these early beliefs.

I'm against it. Cosmetics are unnecessary, so make sure that they work on paper or something, not animals. And if you're so sure that your medicine will work, try it yourself. Or try it on somebody who is so desparate to recover that they'll try anything.

I think its wrong and disgusting to do this out of fun or for materialistic things, those pics made me feel sick. I dont understand how someone can live with themselves after doing that to a helpless creature. I actually think people who do this should be tortued and killed no mercy for them at all
