Lisa Magnusson: Djurvännerna suffer from a lack of touch with reality

It is difficult to understand how militant animal rights activists think. They are not like other våldsromantiker, for it is located as well as not in their ideology to harm someone. On the contrary.

the Whole of their belief emanates from the empathy that is so strong and big that it encompasses all living things. But with people have the obvious problems.

to be worth more than other animals, because the most high moral standing is not to harm, kill and eat other creatures, and we are the only species that is aware enough to be active to make that choice.

But at the same time look djurrättsaktivisterna so obvious down at us. It basically is a good-hearted intention easily get stuck in hair-splitting (”Get” you eat honey? Yeast is murder?) and breathtaking comparisons (”Racism is actually nothing against the speciesistiska concentration camps as is the current meat production doesn”).

another farmer got his dead child's gravestone excavated and placed in the garden.

the sector had received a letter which said: ”Dear scum of the earth. Karma always wins. I intend to execute you for your own good.” The sender said to be inspired by Anders Behring Breivik.

A farmer was told that she should be chained fixed and raped in front of their children: ”We'll see”. Another farmer had his dead child's gravestone excavated and placed in the garden. A kaninuppfödare had his home ravaged. Also, the family and business associates happen to bad. Wrote about this in Göteborgs-Posten in January.

And, in Gästrikland, there will be no kosläpp at all this year, showed a couple of weeks ago in the P4 Gävleborg. Hälsingland and Dalarna have also had it scared. This has djurrättarna by threats and harassment, well-supported. And it is therefore clear that no one stands more in the way of animal rights than their human defenders.

But of all the important struggles you can take in choosing the activists, therefore, is to provide... the tradition to let out the cows on the pasture grazing, and follow their leaping like glädjesprång? Excuse me. But these people don't fight against animal cruelty. They fight against their own lack of touch with reality.
