Sorry, But Animals Dont Have Rights
« on: May 27, 2016, 03:27:44 pm »
Recently a new bill sponsored by California State lawmakers official known as Assembly Bill 797 or the “The Right to Rescue Act” has been announced before the state General Assembly.

According to Fox News 11,

    “In a nutshell, AB 797 would provide immunity from civil liability to a person who rescues an animal from a locked car, even if that rescue entails breaking a window or otherwise damaging the vehicle.”

Since information on the bill went public it has been widely supported. This only makes sense. After all, no non-psychopathic human being would want to see an animal burning to death in a locked car. Yet, upon deeper examination of the bill and its quest to indirectly bestow rights upon animals, it quickly starts to fall apart philosophically. Soon the justifications for it are stripped away one by one until only raw emotion is left, and laws aren’t meant to be made off emotions.

The author is a navel-gazing idiot.  No wonder libertarians are ineffective.
