Animal rights?

Question

These animal rights activists do they know what the really want one minute they say you cant harm any animal now they want to take a life

Answer 1

I suppose you are referring to the idiot who wants the polar bear killed. This supposedly "AR activist" has no idea. Asylum seekers are not living too comfortably in detention centres, but would he suggest that we kill them all? I think not. So how can he suggest something similar in the case of non-human animals without being speciesist?

"If a polar bear mother rejected the baby, then I believe the zoo must follow the instincts of nature," Albrecht said. "In the wild, it would have been left to die."

Interesting. So I suppose this bright "AR activist" would also leave abandoned human babies to die as well? Wouldn't they also die "in the wild"? Once again...speciesist.

True animal rights activists would never demand that any non-human animal be killed unless he is suffering from an incurable illness which causes severe pain.

For all we know, this idiot who suggested that the bear be killed could have been invented to create a “media hype”. In any case, what I’m sure of is that this self-styled “animal rights activist” is a fake.

I oppose zoos (unless the “zoos” are sanctuaries), but I would never suggest that animals kept at zoos be killed. Neither would any other real animal rights campaigner.

So please, don’t judge a whole movement on the actions of one individual who is not part of it. Would anyone claim that “human rights activists murder children” if someone falsely claiming that he is a human rights activist demands that a child be killed? I think not.

Animal rights campaigners don’t murder animals.

Answer 2

The trouble with extremists is that they are extreme.
Still bashing puppy seals for a living in 2007 seems a little harsh, we should be thankful we live in such a cossetted society we can moralise so freely about other people without having to confront our own hypocrisies

Answer 3

Surely any kind of life for this bear is better than no life at all. Next these lunatics will be saying we should put down disabled people because they can't have the same kind of life as someone able bodied.
Where the hell do these people get their ideas from?

Answer 4

Animal rights activists are crazy mo-fos.

Five dollars says that most of them rode the short bus.

Answer 5

They are terrorists.

I like animals as much as the next person, but blowing up things or releasing loads of animals without thinking of the consequences is wrong.

Answer 6

you cant win with some people, if they had announced that the cub was going to be put to sleep, the animal rights would be up in arms with banners reading " save the cub"

Answer 7

I take it you're referring to the case of this poor little polar bear? It's disgusting, in my opinion, that amyone is campaigning for this bear to be killed.

Answer 8

Yeah, i totally agree, it's like saying oh they are old they will die soon who cares, or it's like saying they are poor + they don't have family or money they aren't worth a lot so who cares.
in my opinion: animals=humans
animals are as important as humans and therefore deserve same treatment.

Answer 9

i totoaly agree with you, i take it your talkin about the baby polar bear, how can they be so against killing , and then want to kill an innocent baby bear when it has 99% chance of being released when its older.
ITS JUST WRONG

Answer 10
