I foresee a day, perhaps not far in the future, in which it is illegal to raise cows, pigs, and other animals for food.

Latimer refers to his previous two posts where he has "documented the ethical and moral shallowness of the 'animal rights' credo itself, which is based more on an anti-human self hatred, taking the form of a 'moral' squeamishness concerned more with stamping out human 'cruelty,' no matter what the social or economic costs might be.

Farm animals also benefit from the humane farming movement, even if the animal welfare changes it effects are not all that we should hope and work for.

In responding to Suzie’s post defending wildlife rehabilitation I began to think again about the areas in which animal rights and animal welfare overlap with the field of conservation, and the ways in which they don’t.
