It is admirable to stand up for animal right but nobler to stand up for the rights of humans to live without early death and disease. I have buried 2 husbands because the cure for their kind of cancers had not been found yet. Please don't stop searching and researching to find the cures to make this a better world.

Animal rights energy would be better spent to neuter and spade animals. The world would be better if there were fewer 5 year olds sitting in the park with a sign “free puppies”. That scene tears my heart. It reveals irresponsible parents. People who didn’t care enough for their child’s tender feelings to neuter their pets before unwanted puppies were conceived. Most unwanted pets are destroyed in animal shelters at tax payers expense.
