I fight for BOTH on a daily basis. It doesn’t have to be an “either/or” situation. Liberals care about a lot of things.

IT is SIMPLY NOT TRUE, that those who feel most strongly and fight most to protect animals from abuse are LESS likely to act or simply to ignore the same plight in children.

QUITE THE OPPOSITE. Compassion is not an either/or.

Further, it can be shown that Those who hate people are MORE likely to abuse animals!
