Top Ten Animal Rights Quotes
This is another intelligent one. If you see an animal abuse picture, you should try to help the animal, not just report it.
Very intelligent quote by Captain Jack Sparrow.
This is great. I love animal rights, but honestly, I eat some meats.
I agree with this because animals are like children: helpless, innocent, and pure. If you kill an animal, it's the same as killing a child.
This is true. I would not hurt an animal, meaning I don't go to captivity places, buy cruelty-free products, don't wear them, don't eat them, and those who do, or worse, abuse them just because lack compassion. No offense.
Humanity has taken thousands of lives from animals and tortures them to seemingly no end. We are practically causing the destruction of our planet while most animals are just minding their own business, frolicking around in the meadow without a care in the world.
This is true. Animals do things for survival. We do it for greed. We are wrecking the environment, and they are forced to stand by while we mess up their homes.
Absolutely. This is exactly what I feel.
You can be compassionate without being an activist. It just takes a good heart.
I understand why the way factory farms treat animals is wrong, and the way they handle making the meat is wrong, but I don't understand why the consumption of meat in itself is wrong. The reason it's wrong to eat your grandma is because she is your own species, and if you start eating her, it will decrease the well-being of others because everyone will be worried about getting eaten.
Additionally, you and your grandma are part of a species that wants specific things to happen to their body when they die. If you eat your grandma, it will decrease the well-being of others because they want a specific thing to happen to their body when they die, and now that thing may not happen.
This doesn't mean, "I have compassion for dogs, and am against people hitting them. Same with cats."
It means, "I'm against killing pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, etc., to eat them, because my life isn't worth more than theirs. I am against puppy mills, because the dogs are treated like crops. I don't attend zoos, circuses, or marine parks because it is the equivalent of slavery. I am against animal testing because it is cruel. And hitting any animal is bad."
Killing animals (assuming they aren't insects or something) for no reason is almost, if not just as bad as killing humans. However, killing animals for food and/or self-defense is certainly not without reason.
Murdering animals is the same thing as murdering humans. Humans can suffer. Animals can suffer.
I agree with this as well. I view animals as our equals. They should all be treated with equal love, compassion, and respect, just as we treat humans the same.
