Pet Owners? Is is time to boycott China for good?
China has proven time and time again that this country does not have animal rights. They use dog and cat fur to trim jackets
, they skin animals alive after beating them with clubs or stomping on them, and now they used poison, melamine, as protein filler in our loved-ones food. 17 pets have died….and over 4,000 farm-raised animals have also passed. What will it take for this country to reform, make laws respecting animals, and show some humanity? I have already started my boycott. I will not buy anything made in China. The Olympics are coming up next year. I will also boycott watching them as they take place in China. This country, and it’s lack of legislation for animal protection, enfuriates me. What are your thoughts?
Yes, humans are sickly violated too in this country. Even more reason to boycott.
In addition to a lack of animal rights, the government of China continues to force women to have abortions, and violates the rights of those pursuing non-sanctioned religions. The contamination of pet food is, I believe, a warning sign for human grade foods as well, and should lead us to doing more to encourage and support local and organic food products.
Given the atrocities, a boycott is a reasonable approach, but I would be quite pessimistic about it’s effectiveness.
YES….
I havent bought anything made in china in years.Its all low quality and falls apart anyway.
Speaking showing some humanity – China’s doctors will, by law, take a woman AGAINST HER WILL who is about to give birth to a child, induce labor, then shoot the child’s brain full of poison as the head begins to crown to abort the baby.
It is China’s One Child Rule – the picture of humanity, isn’t it?
I am an animal lover too (trust me, animals out number humans in my house) think that should take precedence over the animal rights issue.
Yeah a boycott of China in the foreseeable future is impossible. We import A LOT from China. Check pretty much any item you have for a "made in China label"
