Even though i like animals, and dont particularly sympathize with people who treat them badly, in this world there are far worse things happening, namely Human Trafficking, Human Slavery, Sexual Exploitation of human beings of all ages, children being captive since they are born till they can be prostituted by criminals. Thousands of orphans in Ukraine and Russia are the mercy of criminals. These children fear for their lives every second of their existence. Investigate a website called www.livejasmin.com , it is a live webcam site, full of teenagers , i suspect many of them are prisioners in some apartment. Somebody has to stop them.

A society who does not care for her best friends proof her selfishness which become contageous to her own species. Actually the same situation occure in every, supposed to be civilized country. In France, many peoples leave their pets on the side of the road when going on vacations. We live in a shamefull world in which most values have been forgotten. In many parts on Earth, the elites give such a bad example on human behaviors that psychologically, we all become creepies like them. To make a better world, we must first of all make a better leadership ! Someone will have to show the way ! Sorry Future Generations ! Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin

The way we treat animals is a sad reflection on society in general. There is no distinction between cruelty to animals or humans, and to make one is just feeding there very source of the cruelty, and what allows it to happen and continue to happen. We should not look to others to make a better world, we should look inside ourselves. Charity begins at home. Well done to all those highlighting and fightiong against all suffering in the world, especially for humans and animals who have no voice. God Bless. Thank you RT for highlighting this.
