"Terracore, yours is a good rationale and excuse for the controversial dentist lion hunter too. Hear about all the elephants massacred lately? The moral of the story is...the more we objectify animals, the more abuse they will receive."
No, and don't try to twist my words into that demented thought process. Your lack of denial of ever using an animal product means that YOU excuse the controversial dentist lion hunter too if one was to follow your argument.
"Edit to add....
Have a chat with our local Humane Society manager, he'll let you know how many thousand of abused pets are euthanized in Puna each month."
I don't need to. I worked for a humane society for many years and volunteered at the one in Keaau. I'm not the one throwing the first stone.
"It's time to rethink the whole pet dynamic, don't ya think? Seems to me like it's not working too well and in need of an overhaul. Criminalizing zoo's would be a good start in teaching children that abuse of animals is NOT ok. And for a good starting reason that those who abuse animals will often abuse other humans."
Rethink pet dynamic: Agree 100%
Criminalizing zoos: Maybe you can share your feelings on this? Does it involve a police state marching into the zoos and arresting all the volunteers and employees? And euthanizing the animals like PETA recommends? I can't agree with that.
ETA: grammar
