There are so many things in the world that I hate. That includes: racism, homophobia, animal cruelty, and so much more. I feel like there are so many people in the world that are treated so unfairly for the things they wear, what they do, how they look like, what their sexuality is- and just doesn’t make any sense. People should always be treated equally with respect, and not have to live a life full of discrimination. I think that all of this is getting out of hand these days, considering the…

Animal abuse is a result of harm and control. The victims described their pain and distress as they were watching their partner torture their animal right in front of them. Victims do not leave a violent relationship because shelters do not allow pets, so they go back home. Shelters for battered women do not allow pets because it is another expense and other women may be afraid of the dogs. I have just one problem with shelters for battered women. They want women to come there to get away from…

commercial dog-breeding operations, there are more pets offered than customers desire. Stray animals come in all different shapes and sizes, and any breed could struggle mentally through this disastrous environment. Veterinarians and animal shelters have to make room for new incoming pets, and have no choice but to put down pets that are not claimed by an owner for a restricted time period. Animal cruelty is a crucial problem that needs to be resolved by our doctors and organizations today. As…

The main point of Mrs. Costello’s argument is that humans deny that animals have a concept of life and death, thus, humans are needlessly cruel to animals and show no sign of ending the cruelty due to the fact that crimes toward animals remain unpunished. Poets, like herself, are able to have “‘ a feel for’ an animal’s experience. That leads them to recognize the crime of killing any animal that can experience the sensation of being alive to the world” (Introduction, 5). After the speech at the…

The cruelty of animals has the whole world in a debate. The question however, is whether or not they have rights like humans. After reading the two writings by Peter Singer and Carl Cohen, I now have a better idea of my view on this widely known controversy. I believe that everything is put on this earth for a reason, even if that reason is to be eaten. In my view, pigs are on this earth to be bacon and sausage. Although this is a harsh view, humans have to fend for themselves and receive…

Animal cruelty is one of the lowest qualities that humans have, being able to hurt innocent animals just to supply their hunger. Every second, 300 animals are killed in the USA alone. That number shows how America is being taken over by the meat industry. People have begun to turn vegan because they are embarrassed by the way humans treat animals. Vegans believe in animal rights because they are living, breathing beings that have feelings and emotions, just like humans. Yet people seem to…

“Cruelty, like every other vice, requires no motive outside of itself; it only requires opportunity.” (George Eliot) In the world today, cruelty is everywhere. People in every city and every home are attacked in large and small ways by thoughtless actions of others each day. While it is true that there is cruelty in every human being, at the same time, kindness can attempt to repair what hate disturbs. However, without kindness, people impacted by cruelty have nothing that can protect them from…

about the repercussions that are caused? By eating fast food, we give a cause for animal cruelty. Many may argue that they only eat fast food because it is much more affordable than a healthy meal, but this really the case? Most of all, fast food has an enormous impact on one 's health. For these reasons, people should stop eating fast food. Firstly, the purchase and consumption of fast food is causing animal cruelty. The way that fast food producers…

it's divine judgment for those who are truly wicked and are deserving of retribution through the actions of fate. No, cruelty goes way deeper and is much more dark and sadistic. Animal cruelty, that thirty-two dollar lipstick that you splurged on at Sephora, or that "firm" hairspray that you got from Walmart have most likely been tested on a poor defenseless animal. What has that animal done to deserve being tortured just so we can see if the pigment is rich and to our satisfaction? My personal…
