Talk about jumping the shark, spains leaders have gone totally off the deep end. Why stop at apes, why not just include all animals in their little declaration and get it over with? Then the Spaniards can quit eating meat of all types, stop having pets because that will be violation of animal rights, stop eating eggs also because eggs are potential animals, etc. What a bunch of total idiots.
I had a dream: Could the next great civil rights movement be to protect the million not-yet-born children each year who are literally never permitted to see the light of day? Could the culturemakers who need to see themselves as participating in this great moral drama that gives meaning to their lives, come to recognize the incongruity of entertaining the idea that apes may have a right to life on the grounds they share "98.5 percent of DNA" while withholding it from real, living, developing human children?
Protection for apes but not humans..
An egg isa potential chicken and chickens have rights, but a human fetus is just a growth that should be killed. The left never ceases to amaze.
