Animals have feelings too!!

I am a strong believer of Animal rights!!! we hand no right to take the lives animals of this world. I never have completly understood the idea of wearing fur it's utterly stupid! we are not just taalking about wild life, but it could even be ur pet. Because evey year millions of cats and dogs are killed for their fur. So many people watch the Animal Planet and those dog cruelty shows and say "Oh my God." That's all they need to get out and help their local animal shelters. Report any animal cruelty. It takes a pretty weak person to just kick a dog, cat, or any other type of animal. These animals need and deserve a chance to live. Which is why we need to stop any form of animal crulty and animal testing. God i am so mad i don't even know what else to say.

Animals have feelings too? Many of them aren't developed enough to have 'feelings' as we do. There's actually no evidence that, except for the higher animals such as whales and dolphins, animals have 'feelings' like we do at all.
I have a couple articles of clothing made of leather. I really couldn't care less. I eat meat and I think using their hide for clothes is good - at least it wouldn't go to waste.
And no animal testing? I guess you should tell all the diabetics, people with AIDS, people with cancer, etc, etc, to just fuck off and die.
I think humans have rights first. And abuse does not (and should not) fall under the same category as wearing fur, eating meat, or testing medicines.
And when people show pictures or videos of animal 'torture' it pisses me off- especially PETA because it is so overly subjective. And never looks like it's being done in the name of fur and food and medicine like they claim.
So yes- report animal abuse. But if someone chooses to wear fur or leather or whatever- go right on ahead...
I don't see any problem in eating meat or hunting, but I do have a problem with hunting for sport. If the animal is to be wasted (ie, just stuffed or whatever) then it is so wrong. The animal should at least be used. Y'know, cook the meat and use whatever parts necessary. Then a life won't have been taken for selfish reasons.
Just because we are considered higher life forms does not give us the right to subject other living creatures to abuse and torture. While when you eat meat, you are not commiting the act of violence, you are promoting it. Domestic animals are meant to be our companions, and should not be abused in any way. The same thing with those Fur animals. I NEVER wore fur, and I don't think that people should wear any animal. We have other options, and we dont need to wear fur at all, now. I could not immagine anyone looking at my pet chinchillas and actually wearing them.
