robert, you've missed my point. nobody likes seeing abuse. But one mans abuse is another mans living. Some animal rights people would like to have you believe eating meat, or hunting, cattle ranching, dairy owners, or whatever it is should be outlawed. Your believe is yours.... it may be mine too... but suggesting that we pass laws or fight to get laws passed that are based on moral decisions is to not have an understanding of freedom and assigning animals "rights" would be doing exactly that. The way in which change happens should be organic, not through force. laws are force. These people over in Yugoslavia that are defending their government have no value on human individuality, and that is the root of their problem. They see the "we", instead of the "I". Their government is exploiting them for their own power trip, and the people still don't understand the basic principles that could have avoided this mess.

>We get wasps on our porch all the time. I capture them and release them unharmed

Robert,

While trying to glue something, you somehow drop the glue all over your nose. Your friendly wasp from the porch does not loose the opportunity to come and enjoy some on your nose. You sir as an animal rights activist what do you do?

This is not a trick question!
