You can not balance the interests of a slave against its owner

In Response To: My benign slavery does not justify slavery ()

For many years I wanted to believe that it was about finding a "balance". But the truth is there can be no balance. You can not balance the interests of a slave against its owner. We know who will always come out on top. It's not a truth we want to look at, because it's not how we want to see ourselves. But it is a truth nevertheless.

If you're not an abolitionist, you're part of the problem

Why doesn't AAS take the first step

AAS has been preaching abolition for years

Preach all you want, why not walk the walk?

Perhaps I should find the closest colony of abandoned cats and kittens and stomp one to death...

The truth is that only abolition will end cruelty

Perhaps Ms Lapointe would take care of all the suffering dogs that AAS rescues?

I help many suffering animals

We must see through our own selfish but well-meaning mind-set of capturing and tethering any animal to our lives

Calling animals slaves doesn't cut it for your average Joe

No-one has spoken of setting dogs and cats free to fend for themselves except Ms. Lapointe

Are we not animals ourselves? Do we not value our freedoms?
