The current spotlight on China's human rights record fails to illuminate its cruel and inhumane treatment of dogs and cats.
  • animals don't have rights? none at all? not even the right not to be tortured in the most perverted way?

    If animals have no rights then NO ONE has the right to SET ANY LIMIT AT ALL ON WHAT CAN BE DONE TO THEM BY ANYONE FOR ANY REASON. Since I take it as a given then very few people accept this extreme position the question only remains WHAT SPECIFIC RIGHTS do animals have, or should animals have.
