yeah yeah yeah, and you are part of the mob who is defending her. So what? I don't care enough about your views to nominate you. Grainne is a hypocrit. And you have misrepresented what she has stated are her views on this subject. She did not qualify her views to those who use weapons to kill animals. She left it quite simple as those who kill animals. And both you and she kill many animals regularly as your normal day to day living. BTW: something that both you and she might do is try to understand the word "murder". It is a legal term with a very specific definition. The unlawful killing of one human by another, especially with premeditated malice I suppose, since you brought up the "race" card WRT animals, that you need a clarification that "human" refers to the genus species "Homo sapiens". I do not see that valueing human life automatically means that one does not value the lives of other animals. But to give it perspective, if one of my beloved dogs were to attack an innocent person who I did not know (i.e. someone who is not threatening or attacking me or my loved ones), and in order to save the life of that person it required that I kill my own beloved dog, I would not hesitate to do so. In fact, if there was no other food source around, I would go so far as to eat my beloved dog to feed my wife, my son and myself. Does this mean that I don't love my dog? No, it just means that I love my son and my wife and myself more. I guess we could assume that both you and grainne would choose the life of the dog over yours and your loved ones...let alone the random anonymous person.
