People who advocate animal rights don't understand that rights also
entail responsibilities. Animals can't be held responsible for their
actions so they cannot have rights, it's a two edged sword, unless you
wish to completely redefine what rights are.

And farming animals for their fur is much worse than growing cows,
pigs, sheep, and chickens so we can eat their flesh.
Don't you people understand these animals have rights too?

Hi Bob
thanks a lot for that statement.
I'm so fed up with all those cheap excuses why cruelty and injustice against
animals just have to continue....

I don't understand why you focus on the fact that these people are wearing
leather. It has no bearing at all on whether the case for animal rights is
sound or not. It simply shows that the leather-clad people are
inconsistent,
or hypocritical, or have come to some sort of arrangement with themselves.
It says nothing at all about whether it is right or wrong to carry out
experiments that harm animals, or to permit factory farming.
