In 2014, in the UK, around 2 million experiments were carried out on animals.
Some of these experiments involved 'Sawing off the top of dogs' heads, electrocuting rabbits and implanting electrodes in monkeys' brains'.

92% of experimental drugs that are safe and effective in animals fail in human clinical trials because they are too dangerous or don’t work.
The people who torture animals are pretty much the same sort as those who torture humans.
I agree, animal experimentation is an often overlooked tragedy comparable to some of the most atrocious behavior committed on humans. From the occult and Nazi spurned alchemists of the pharmaceutical industry to the industrialized sized meat packing plants barbarous practices something has to be changed in the way some human beings view animal rights. Although I do not believe human beings will ever and should not ever give up eating meat entirely a more sustainable system must be observed because all that suffering has to amount to no good.
ReplyDeleteI am also in agreement that those who hurt animals are also those more prone to hurting human beings. I am reminded of the old psychological maxim that children who display tendencies of hurting household pets like skinning and burning are most likely those that are willing to commit atrocious acts on other human beings in adulthood, evidently, by the looks of things, those are the people that have been allowed to float to the top of the pyramid in all societal matters.
On another note, I want to remind readers that there should also remain a healthy amount of skepticism in the more recent psy-op of a program of creating an overly-empathetic attitude for animal rights that in some instances trump empathy for other human beings. I've noticed quite a few opinions that would rather see an animal survive a horrific encounter than the human. Much of it has to do with advertising here in America that has gotten charity fever, after seeing how many millions can be bilked from the public with nothing real being done.
I have a real respect (for what I know about them) for the native americans and how they viewed the taking of the life of an animal.

i dont know who is worst, they who say what you have to do or you what you must do what they want.
ReplyDeleteI saw on YouTube recently a shocking 1950's US gas experiment on animals. It's horrible to watch so i didn't post it. I should imagine that the military tries all its weapons out on animals first.
ReplyDeleteI was always a vegetarian but I went vegan a couple of years ago after reading The China Study by Dr Colin Campbell. The health benefits are enormous as long as you supplement with B12 and get sufficient sun in the summer, or take vitamin D.
