THE Animal Rights thread. The only place on this forum as of now to talk about animal rights. This is for those who really want their opinions on animal rights heard. Try to keep this a thread with calm discussions. All rules aply here, no matter who you are, or what rank you are. What is said in this thread, stays in this thread. Try to stay off the animal testingthing, cause I am really not in the mood to read that. We all know that discussing this here will not change what happens to animals, or what the laws are, but I know that I like my opinion to be heard, and other people do as well. Thank you, and have a calm discussion. I will be watching you guys. Want to talk more about this without as many restrictions, you can go to my animal lovers site. aspcajuniors.proboards104.com/index.cgi(Don't mind the URL, it was my friends before and I took over.) |

This is a good thread as long as no one gets too hurt or starts a fight. I think that there needs to be more laws about the anmial rights. They need to push people harder on taking care of these animals and stop abusing them. I love animals very much. And I cannot stand it when people abuse animals in any kind of way. Also...i believe that animals need more room in life. All we do is make more and more buildings..more Super Markets...more Malls..more Restaurants. And we dont need all of that. I think we need to take some of that away..and let animals have more room to be in the wild. Sooner or later there will be no more room for animals to hunt and play. Same thing with the rainforest and cutting down trees. These animals need homes too. Not just humans. It is really sad what people do to animals and thier homes. And it needs to stop. It really does. That is why when i get older...I am working for an animal rights group..or maybe not something so big but something that has to do with animals..something that has to do with helping them. Maybe like a vet..or the Humane Society. Anything that will help the animals survive and stop the abusers. I think the people who abuse their pets or any other animal should have harder laws..I dont know what right now but it just isnt right. They get away with it too much..too easily. And it is wrong. I am all for saving animals and their environment. I am all for Animal Rights. That is all I can say.

I agree with you Mistynight, humans are to greedy when it comes to land and stuff, and it's all for money. Some people just think they are worth nothing. The abusers get away with so much, cause of the laws not being harsh, and the fact that not many people are out there trying to get them. There are places like the ASPCA scattered across the country, but they can't do it all.

Yes, and it is just so sad. It is nothing funny at all. I wish there were more helpful people...or at least just much less animal abuse..and less construction and buildings. It just makes me sad.

Mmm...yes. I don't know why people make their dogs get in fights, or beat them, or whatever. It is like they think they're nothing. Which is strange....I look at my animals, and although they don't like it, I have to hug them and kiss them. There's a really sad commercial about a boy who gets a puppy for his birthday, and they play with it for a while, but then it ends up getting taken to an animal shelter ;-; Adopt animals! They're more used to people, and they're real sweeties too  Or, if not, they just gotta get used to you. That's how it was with our kitty, Tabby. I took a little paper bank thing around and people donated money to protect an area of a rainforest. I also donated money in my class to protect sea turtles' habitats. I had lots of coins in a plastic sandwich bag, but it broke and all the change went all over the floor...my teacher was happy though XD That I brought money to donate and she helped me pick it up. I'm glad that, even if it's a little bit, people want to protect areas of places like that. I don't want it to be gone though, forever. Then, it couldn't be fixed ever again, back to how it was before. Although... The animals and trees and other life were there in the first place. It's odd that we have to be so controlling. (I hope that's an OK thing to say, hope it won't make people get angry.) I could get used to treehouses and bugs and affected by predator and prey type cycles....well, maybe it wouldn't be like that, exactly, but we could be a part of nature instead of so closed off from it, does that make sense? It'd be a huge change, that must be why things aren't changing yet. |

It does make sense! We DO need to start living more in the wild..i mean..we can still have houses and all that..but not SO much you know? I mean..if we were just..closer to the rest of the animals like it was BEFORE we made all this...garbage....everything would be ok you know?

Horses are beautifull. My cousin lives way out in the country and she has three. They are beautifull. I wish I really had a place where I could keep some animals because there are a lot of strays in my neighborhood and I feel I could take care of some and then give them (if their homes aren't found) to the animal shelter where they can be fixed and given a wonderfull home. I mean, this neighborhood is filled with cats, and they keep coming because almost no cat here is really fixed and kept inside as my cat Big Al is. I have a cat right now, and his owners abused him so we take care of him but he tears up cars and scratches them up with his claws and so we may end up taking him to the animal shelter. Plus, this summer we took care of a kitten we found on the road for a couple of days. It had just been dumped out on the streets, and her brothers and sisters I found a few weeks later, most if them dead, lying all over town. Cars ran over them we figured. I hate the way people treat animals.
