reporter convicted for killing guppies....

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hey, animal cruelty is animal cruelty. purposely killing a fish, is the same as killing a dog or a cat. its still killing another animal
 
Thats freakin retarded. If you stab them with a hook its fine, Liberal panzies need shot in the head.
 
its an experiment comon give the lady a break...they even say right in the artical it was based on lab done test so its ok for goverment sponsored scientist to do it but not a reporter who is trying to get the word out on a toxic product?
 
for one fish dont feel pain and for two im fine with experiments being done on animals countless numbers of lives have been saved because of it and I would never hold a animals life above that of a humans.

agree and throw bugs in to that as well, o wait nobody has a problem with killing bugs on a mass scale and they're considered animals now aren't they?

haha now obviously i'm being completely sarcastic and while i don't agree with the practice mentioned, people have a tendency to be complete hypocrites.

High school bio not your strong suite is it. All vertebrates feel pain. As far a legitimacy of the experiment. Bull****. Just because a product will kill fish by being absorbed into the gills (try inhaling shampoo) does not mean it is toxic if you wash your hair with it. I can find tons of badly done experiments that prove nothing but were done for shock value. Look up some of the crap that Edison used to push DC over AC for starters, and not just with lower vertebrates but long pig too.

While I fundamentally dis like animal experiments for now they are needed for our good and theirs. Just like humans need food, no way around that. However killing animals for shock value on TV is crap, and doing so for fun (as opposed to enjoying gathering food) is FUBAR.

I love this narcissistic attitude, what makes you worth anymore than any other animal on this planet?

So your life is just as important as that of a fish? would you trade the life of a child for the life of a monkey?
