This is so sad. No matter how many petitions we sign, people just won't stop torturing animals! I hope I live to see the day when animals have rights and the torture and abuse and murder will be stopped. Oh, there will always be those who still kill and abuse them, just like the terrible murderers of humans, but at least it will be illegal. Slaughterhouses, laboratories, military exercises...what kind of SICK mind ever thought of these in the first place?

1 year ago

Yea... it DOES get tiresome speaking out against these things because they seem to be neverending and getting worse.

 

Mankind has it so stuck in his that we are so "superior" that everything else on this planet is "inferior" that we have effected every other living creature on this planet and permanently destroyed so much habitat with GREED- logging, mining, drilling.

 

What can we do... just keep speaking out and saying over and over it is NOT acceptable. Hopefully more people in the next generation will feel the same.

 

Change happens slowly- it isnt easy to be a voice for the voiceless, it is often downright heartbreaking. But? Somebody has to do it. Why not us? Luckily Care2 gives us all the tools we need to try to make a difference.
