World Day Against Speciesism
One of those modern tragedies in which we now live is the so-called "animal holocaust" whereby we are losing species of animals due to poaching, habitat infringement, pollution, and generally reeking havoc on the biosphere as though we own it.Unfortunately, the cause suffers by radical lefties such as the Farm Animal Rights Movement and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals who attempt to form public opinion in their own image by promoting a rather self serving World Day Against Speciesism annually on this day.

The concept leads us down the trail that "animal rights" are being subjugated primarily by carnivore and trophy seeking humans for their own agrandisement and that as people we should 'cease and desist' in favor of letting animals assume their own roles with their own rights and so on ...
This has led to habit provision for retired scientific test animals which I view as heartwarming and wonderful but the entire notion of invading scientific laboratory sites for the emancipation of lab animals is deleterious to the pursuit of testing prior to application and therein lay the crux of my opinion:
Animals do not possess intrinsic rights, to live or otherwise because the human species has dominion over them.
While it would be lovely for mankind to leave the animals alone and subsist on soylent green or some other manufactured foodstuff I feel it's unlikely this will ever become a practicality.
Those methods imposed by Peta and the rest of the tree hugging animal rights advocate wussies can just go on whining about how horrible the rest of us are.
Then ... please just shut up and pass the A1.
