       An animal rights activist was killed today in Toronto by a slaughterhouse - run over by one of their transport trucks carrying pigs. It's unclear if it was an accident or not."The tragic death comes two days after the controversial agricultural gag (“ag gag”) law, Bill 156, was passed in Ontario. Bill 156 is designed to cover up animal cruelty on farms and during transport."RIP Regan Russell. https://www.animaljustice.ca/media-releases/animal-advocates-mourn-tragic-death-at-fearmans-pork-slaughterhouse-in-burlington

       @mk It's not surprising when humans who murder animals murder other humans.

       @alex Yes. They were already murderers. Maybe now the law will recognize them as such.

       @mk @alex It’s not surprising when people defending their property harm those messing with it. Most of the world does not consider killing animals to be wrong, at all. They’re property, like cars.

       I am so sorry.I hope her death isn't in vain and this brave sacrifice actually brings a lot more scrutiny towards factory farming practices. @mk

       @billstclair @mk You keep saying this over and over. I already know that you think it, but every time you repeat that "animals are property and not living breathing creatures with thoughts and feelings" it just makes you seem like a bit of an ass.

       @alex @mk I was primarily responding to the confusion I perceived over a pig transport truck driver being willing to run over somebody attempting to stop him. Murder from your perspective. Perfectly understandable defense of property from mine. Though I wasn't there, so I don't really know.You keep saying YOUR opinion over and over. Sort of like the abortion debate. Nobody ever budges an inch. All heat, no light. Sigh...I think I asked you once what your take on abortion is, but I don't remember your answer, or if you gave one. When does the right to life begin? Conception, nth trimester, birth? Same for all living creatures? All sapient creatures? All sentient creatures? Including reptiles and amphibians? Including bugs? Including plants?Sapience, the ability to reason, is all-important for me. Sentience, the ability to feel, appears to be all-important to you.
