Any rational person knows that the words contradict each other. We are "HUMANS, therefore we are not "ANIMALS". Although there are some amongst us who make very poor excuses for a human being, we are all none the less "Human Beings." What precisely do people mean when they refer to a "Human Animal?" I know plenty of humans, and not one of them is an animal. Some of us maybe ill mannered and behave like animals, but are none the less still human beings. I've heard about some fellow named Gary Francione who rants about the theory of animal rights and abolition, a cause that many vegans are dedicated to. Perhaps that is where this little catch phrase came from. I've tried to read some of what Mr. Francione has written, but could not stop laughing at what he had to say, and simply couldn't carry on with it. Do vegans think so little of themselves that they consider themselves to be "HUMAN ANIMALS?" I don't always agree with vegans, but I've never thought them to be animals
