I swear, I don't know whether to laugh or cry: - (from Foxnews.com, 1st week of January) - Adventures in Etymology - In a letter to the editor of Vegan Voice - "I think it is speciesist to think that the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center was a greater tragedy than what millions of chickens endured that day and what they endure every day because they cannot defend themselves against the concerted human appetites arrayed against them," writes Karen Davis, Ph.D., president of the chicken rights group. - Davis describes the horror heaped on chickens every night, when "men who are cursing and yelling at them" rouse them from their peaceful slumber for their journey to the slaughterhouse and the "next wave of human terror attacks" on them. - "For 35 million chickens in the United States alone, every single night is a terrorist attack," she says. _________________________________ - "Speciesist"?? - "chicken rights group"? - Did anyone know that there are MORE chickens in the world than there are people. What is that, like several BILLION? - I say it's us vs. them. Maybe the cows are right at Chik-Fil-A, "Eat Mor Chikn!". In a race of survival, may the smarter, stronger, species survive. Besides, chickens breed like bunnies, it's not like chickens are going to be on the endangered species list anytime soon. http://www.goingfaster.com Now with pop-up scratch and sniff action!(tm) |

Success! Thanks, Jonathan... but I have a sneaking feeling we have set a dangerous precedent with this little lesson. [This message has been edited on 01/11/2002] |
