When Debating Animal Topics....

Here's a link I found while I was looking for equality stuff. It deals with the concept of "speciesism" - the idea that humans have more rights than other species and can do whatever they want to other species. Difficult to argue, but this is a good tool to have for,say, when you're opening government on "THW ban the keeping of animals as pets" :(
