In Response: Lynx
If you are going to place my words in quotes, I would respectfully request that you take the whole passage and not just portions in order to fit your argument.
Case in point - As far as grass for goats and cows' milk for calves...huh. Considering your affinity for pointing out what you consider to be erroneous comparisons, that's a bit of a stretch, don't you think? Milk from a cow you equate to grass? And you cherry picked. I guess you don't feel the whole pus issue is worth noting in your response?
Obviously you have strong feelings about PETA. Fair enough. I'm not real sure why you felt the need to attack, but that's your choice. I happen to agree with a lot of their policies, perhaps not some of their choices but they get attention for the plight of animals and for that, I am happy.
I put "pets" in quotation marks because I was quoting the previous poster. Sorry for the confusion. PETA does have an issue with animals as "pets" because many people mistreat them - beating, neglecting, collecting, etc. - and again, the PETA point of view is a complete end to "animal ownership". I happen to disagree with this particular point of view.
I always find it amusing how people take something that someone writes and says something like "The latter statement doesn't follow even as a comparison" with no backup or supporting documentation.
I have no affiliation to PETA, but I admire anyone that commits his or her life to those without a voice.
I also believe that many of the posts, especially webcat's, are insightful and comprehensive, establishing that the industry needs regulation.
What exactly would be the point of your post with my name as the title? Except to go completely off subject and attack someone offering an opinion. Besides that, I mean.
