Mr. Krol’s attitude toward animal rights is not only shocking and disheartening but dangerous. Indeed, as human beings, we possess the unique ability to reason, but along with this powerful gift of development comes responsibility.

Your strident, hostile voice indicates exactly how poorly thought-out your viewpoint is. Your “use and discard” attitude is a volatile one. For what we do to animals we eventually do to ourselves. We do indeed further the human race by supporting and developing kinder and more ethical treatment of others.

It is your responsibility as a thinking, feeling human being (although I see no evidence of this) to treat animals and nature with respect. You sicken me, Mr. Krol.
