1. Calling that platform "animal rights" is like calling Hillary a Marxist.
It shows a complete lack of understanding about the definitions of the words they are using.

3. Don't mind me, I just get pissy over things like that.
The whole confusing-welfare-with-rights thing just grates on me whenever I hear omnis congratulating themselves for how "compassionate" they are.

6. Nice platitudes, but I'd like to hear a more....
