4 The Love Of Animals

SEPTEMBER 13, 2009

I can’t even imagine being in a position where my government was telling me to kill my dog, or have it beaten to death. Dog owners in Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province, are even being told to kill their own dogs, or else their dogs will be beaten to death by the police and the owners will be charged a fine. Thank you, Fred.

If you don't have to enslave, rape, dominate, or kill someone (or have someone else do it for you), why would you? Yes, it is hypocritical (speciesism), but who said that we either protect humans or animals? What do you think?
