What's really important to Animal Rights activists

Post by AJMD429 »

....is how it makes them feel, NOT whether it is good for the animals in question....

Reminds me of 'gun control' activists, and 'climate change' activists..... :roll:

People should get some facts before they act on the impulses of their idiot conscience.

:x
Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

We had that happen in the UK several times and the surviving mink decimated some of our native species, dumb assed animal rights idiots. :twisted:
If more men loved and cherished their wives as much as I love bacon the world would be a much better place.

Animals who think they are activists for the rights of non human species deserve to be forced to clean up the mess they cause.

This is a common trait for a lot of folks of the so called "liberal" bent. They claim compassion for less fortunate people (or animals), when in fact they have disdain for the objects of their compassion and derive their satisfaction from deciding how they should live their lives, not from allowing them to make their own decisions, and the good feeling they get from being so "caring".

I have acquaintances, even family members, who are by any standard wealthy, living in enormous houses, driving luxury vehicles, wearing designer clothing, jetting all over the world for vacations, who decry the "shameful wastefulness" and "blatant consumerism" of the American lifestyle and how we squander resources. They like to go to Third World countries on brief church mission trips to help for a few days in building schools or churches, then come home and lament how ignorant and benighted "those people" are -- but are they, themselves willing to give away a single luxury or privilege so that those less fortunate might be have the resources to determine their own fates? No way! It's all about feeling good over how special ( and "correct") they are. They criticize someone like me who'll forego a weekend trip to the mountains so I can donate $100 to a worthy cause, but not spend $1000 or more to fly to Belize for 5 days and contribute labor which, on the local market, could be had for maybe $3. Yet, I'm giving enough to hire an entire crew for a week, while they are taxing the resources of the locals just by being there, and burning tons of jet fuel to do it. It's completely nuts!
