Scum on the supreme crapper reverse animal cruelty law

Quote from CaptainObvious:

I understand your position and agree with much of it. Every effort should be made to insure an innocent person does not go to jail, even if it means that a guilty man may walk. I don't like it, but I do understand it.
I'm talking about the obviously guilty and obvious double standards. Take this case inparticular. Dog fighting is illegal, correct? Having sex with a child is illegal, correct? Film the dog fight is OK, the sex with a child not. I don't see the distinction. Both activities are illegal. The argument against filming child sex is that the filming of such activity actually stimulates and creates more sexual violence against children. I agree! Does not the filming of dog fighting do the same?
I understand a dog is not a child, but I also know this. Until man extends his circle of compassion to all living things, man himself will not know peace. That argument won't hold up in a court room, but that doesn't make it any less true. Violence begets more violence. First you kill an animal for pleasure. Human nature being what it is one finds themselves bored with killing animals and the next step is taken. We all know the cycle of violence and it ends up with a society that has little value for life, any life. Our epitath may read, they were more concerned with their rights than they were in preserving life itself, which is why they're all f'n dead.

You are right - you caught the slippery slope vs the bright line test .

You are asking perfect law / debate qeustions..

When you have two Constitutional issues colliding - it sometimes just comes down to a decision of whose Ox gets gored?

In the case of possession of child porn vs freedom of speech - the judges picked humans over free speech.

I can see why they did... but it did set us on the path of a slippery slope.

I have 4 kids under 10 and I desire to protect them very much. I despise cruelty to kids (or animals for that matter)

But, if I were a supreme court justice it would have been very tough for me to go against freedom of speech.

Activist judges are a dangers to our freedoms. Whether they be on the left or the right.
 
Quote from stock777:

This is what I believe.

Those that hide behind the skirts of the big C, proclaiming they love freedom so much that they are willing to let the OBVIOUSLY guilty go free, are themselves scum of the earth, looking for leniency for their own crimes.

If the shoe fits wear it.

This is the perverse liberal dogma at its core.


Whenever I hear anyone saying that animals have no 'rights', I know I'm dealing with a piece of shit.

Oddly for you I roll out the constitution a conservative because we need to conserve our freedoms

First you arrest people for having pictures of tortured dogs. Then you arrest people for hate speech. Then you arrest people for speaking out against the government.

Freedom of speech can not be sacrificed for your pet or your peta. Freedom of speech protects Peta and allows them do that stunts which get them publicity which does far more for animals than arresting this guy who had a film .
