Let us know the story. I find these interesting....how some people think and the control issues.
Okay, just saw on my morning news how an "Animal Ethics" group thinks our dogs, cats, etc should not be called "pets" as this term is durogatory...they should be called "Companian animals" and "wildlife" should be referred to as "free range animals", etc, etc, etc. They say that calling them "pets" could influence how other people "treat" them. Can I say 1 thing:
GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!!
Don't these people have anything better to do?
They would, if they would sit down and think long and hard about their place in the universe, their obligations to their fellow humans, and the ways in which their version of the world would be cold, dead, and empty. Or they could grow a sense of humor, but I've given up on that happening.
There are wrongs to struggle against, in the way humans treat animals, but I'm pretty sure Temple Grandin does more good in a single day than PETA, and so on, have done in their entire history, and while keeping her clothes on, too!
AMEN!!!

Yea I'm this far behind.
Wow, haven't seen you in awhile. Welcome back. And I note in my original post that I have been doing a lot of "studding"..not studying. Um...no I have not been tire studding or anything else...I meant studying - as in reading up on and researching. Wow. I gotta pay more attention or drink less wine when I am on here.
I have been here just way behind, like 1000 post behind. I am catching up.

Hmmm, (she said, trying not to smirk...
) I've known a few Kansans. Don't remember how tough-skinnedness they were, tho'...
Keeping in mind that I am NEW! Sorry for your troubles, there, brother! When I need to talk strickly chickens, I go to the other threads! I hope I'm not off-base thinking this is where I meet my 'neighbors' and talk day to day biz.
Boys club, huh? Been called worse!
I say, bring it!! lol!
I like to think of the 'Where am I? Where are you!' thread is like the fence between Wilson and Tim The Tool Man Taylor where anything can be talked about we just can't see faces.
I look at it like chicken people are people too! Right? We have one big thing in common, but, we learn about each other and in doing so, care about what happens! I think you can love a particular thing, and have that in common and still be human?? I've never subscribed to a foum before this is my first experience, but, I'm very glad I picked this one! There are some REALLY GOOD peeps on here!! Not so many on the outside, We are glad your here !!!!

Makes me crazy. My animals have more rights than I do? Now it's my responsibility to change my vocabulary because of someone else's potentially misguided perception?!?!
I say, Look to your own house! How other people treat my pets is more determined by how they were RAISED to treat animals, wild or otherwise.
Yeah. They look pretty disrespected to me...
DH just asked: "What next?! We can't call them Afghans, German Shepherds, Black Lab, Calico's or Tabby's...!!??"
