PETA and its brand of animal rights are disturbing things, but your apparent hatred of animals is disturbing as well. I can assume you’ve never had a pet?
I think that Unregistered Bull’s point might be that in times of disaster, it’s a bit of a zero sum game. Resources that are going to X are not going to Y. Fuel and other human effort that is going to save animals is not going to save humans. I understand the point.
Of course that is always the case (technically, there are always humans in need in the world, so any money spent on animals is not spent on humans). I’m not sure where he draws the line, and would be interested in knowing.
PinkFreud, you were -><- that close in your prediction from last week. Were it not for the forum of the hijacked thread linked in the OP to which this shitting occurred, I’d be asking for racetrack and stock picks.
But we’re talking about anonymous dogs and anonymous animals. Do hate these people in need because they are predominantly Black or because some of them are White Southerners?
Ya know Unlamented Bullshit, for someone who hates animals you sure are a giant horse’s ass, not to mention a one trick pony and generally a worthless sack of shit. How about you bring one glass of water to someone displaced by Katrina before you complain about someone rescuing animals on the fucking return trip. You need to find somewhere else to spew your absurd bile, you canker sore on the ass of humanity.
You know, Unregistered Bull, just because you keep saying people are “ignoring” human beings in favor of animals doesn’t make it true. Further, a merely cursory reading of the thread that spawned this one would reveal to all but the most obtuse or willfully stupid person that what is being advocated is aid to both humans and abandoned pets.
Read slowly now: it’s not an all or nothing proposition.
Also, your ham-handed accusations of racism are asinine.
Two scenarios for you
Scenario 1) A man has chosen to go to New Orleans to help distribute water and supplies. On the way back he can choose to a) bring back animals. b) come back in an empty car.
Given those two options, which is better? And as a preemptive, you do NOT get choice C) bring back a car full of humans. You do NOT get to say “well he should choose to bring back humans instead of animals.” Why do you not get to say that? Because the volunteer has chosen not to. It’s animals or nothing. A or B. Also because…
Scenario 2a) A man chooses to go down to New Orleans to help distribute water and supplies. On the way back he chooses to bring back stray animals. b) A man sits at his computer, not volunteering, and chooses to criticize the manor of volunteering that another man would do.
Again, given those two options, which is better?
What hatred of animals? I like animals. I don’t put them on the same level of human beings thoug. I don’t have a pet because I don’t feel like I could give a dog the room that one deserves. I could be like many urban animal lovers and keep one in a small cage all day, but I find it, on a personal level, to be cruel.
He has contributed to someone wasting resources on animals. So more resources will be wasted again on animals for next pathetic dumbass to come along for them. And if there weren’t any dumbasses coming for animals, maybe these bunny hugging idiots would spend some time rescuing people instead of people.
Of course bringing the supplies for the humans was a good thing, but animal part is pure disservice to them.
Your logic does not follow. The hypothetical volunteer above has finished his service and is returning home. He needs to use the gas in his car anyway; how is using it to bring back a few stranded animals “wasting resources” which could otherwise be used to rescue humans?
Have you even been paying attention to what is going on down there? Do you not realize that one of the major impediments to search and rescue is the almost incomprehensible brutal, sel-centered and vicious behaqvior of the some of the people in New Orleans? I assure you sir, that I would much rather rescue a boatload of pets before I would waste a second of my time on these murderous, raping, thieving motherfuckers. They are scum. They are worthless, immoral, soulless bastards every one. In short, I suppose, just the type of **people ** you need to associate yourself with.
That’s nice. Now answer the question: 1) A or B. 2) A or B.
So get up off of your self-righteous ass and go down and HELP those humans, you worthless piece of dogshit.
I’ve never donated to animal welfare organizations. I have donated to Canadian Red Cross for Tsunami aid. When I get paid, I’m donating to the Red Cross for hurricane relief. If there is a jar at restraunt or a convenience store for someone experiencing a tradgedy, I leave my change in it. I always put pocket change in Salvation Army Kettle during Christmas.
I’ve also never kicked a dog for the hell of it. I’ve never starved an animal, withheld water, or shelter. I’ve got my Dad to shoot a dog that was in similar shape as the neglected ones depicted on those Animal Cops shows in order to put it out of its misery because I couldn’t pull trigger (abandoning dogs in the country is a popular no-kill shelter for some folks :mad: ).
But I’m just a son of a bitch because I don’t want to waste resources on animals when people are in extreme dire need. And I’m a son of bitch when I point that doing so is fundamentally wrong in a society that respects human beings.
Unregistered Bull, you really are a worthless sack of shit. Pinkfreuds husband is doing two nice things and you felt a need to crap all over it because of some pathetic urge to get on this anti-peta soapbox. I read the thread this started in and nobody said anything about preferring animals to humans.
You really need to shut the holy fuck up until you have loaded your car with supplies for the humans and loaded up a bunch of humans for the return trip.
Ass.
How about being a smart son of a bitch and point out exactly how, in the link provided, resources are being wasted. And then look at what is really going on down there and explain why, out of all the fucked-upedness of that horrible situation, you choose to single out one man in a van who is doing more to help people in this one trip than ypu wil do all year.
I think that I’ll donate to the Red Cross instead. I’ll leave it up to the worthless pieces of dogshit to donate to those wasting resources saving and aiding animals instead of humans.
It’s obvious that y’all are beyond help when it comes to logic or realizing that caring for human beings is more important than caring for animals.
So in no small part to my rising my blood pressure on this issue, I’m going to abandon this thread.
Could you expand that a little? Like maybe the entire boards? It doesn’t look you’re going to be too happy here, what with all the interspecies compassion and all.
HarborWolf, please don’t call UB an ass. That is an insult to asses everywhere.
Do you know why its name is Unregistered bull? They don’t register the scrubs because they’re worthless. At least it named itself correctly.
You misunderstand me. I’m saying I’ve argued in favor of animal cruelty. Bullfighting, specifically, and rodeos. What I’m trying to say, here, that I’m not some PETA bunny-hugger. I don’t give a goddamned about animal rights. Just about the least important thing in the world to me. And I think you are out of your fucking mind when it comes to this subject. You are entirely beyond the bounds of rationality. You and reason haven’t just parted ways, you’re in entirely seperate solar systems. You’re not even funny-ha-ha-crazy about this, like your regular sort of internet crank. It’s genuinely disturbing to listen to you talk about animal rights, and I don’t even believe animal rights exsist. Get help, man. I am not even kidding: there is something seriously wrong with you.
