Animal welfere in yo' nation

Postby Squizard » Mon Jan 31, 2011 11:28 am

Du'h.

In my nation there is no animal welfere.Battery farming is common and no one gives a damn about 'animals'.Best part is the groups like RSPCA and WWF are killed on sight.

Limbaugh Island was founded on a system of right-wing, Christian influenced beliefs. As such we tend to feel that God put all non-sentient animals on this planet to serve man's needs, but that He also meant for us to be good stewards of His planet.

Because of this, efforts are taken not to cause unnecessary suffering to animals, but we still kill them to produce food, etc...

Excessive 'animal rights' groups do exist here, but tend to be ignored. If they attempt to do something illegal, such as dumping animal blood on company executives, breaking in to privately run livestock farms, etc..., then they are punished as common criminals.

Dogs, cats, birds and other such pets are commonplace in the USLI, and well regarded. Only a brute mistreats his own pets, and only a jackass abuses the pets of others.

No one gives a damn. Even if they did, protesters are arrested and/or shot.

Animals are treated fairly cruel. Except for ravens, they're the only animal with cruelty laws as it's the National Animal

There are no animal rights defined in our nation. We value our people above some mindless animals; of course animal right activists do exist: as of recent statistics, about there are total of 50,000 citizens in such groups. Green party; which had achieved negligible vote and 0 seat in cabinet is the largest of such group with 25,000 members. Such groups are generally ignored by much of populace and government itself too.

Only citizens have protected rights as such, until such a time that an animal undergoes the necessary rites of citizenship, no laws are beholden to them or held for them, their welfare is up to their owners; however, particularly gross abuses can sometimes be charged under Guardian Angel laws, where a individual citizen agrees to pay for the cost of pursuing a crime against another person (or in this case animal). Under such laws it is possible to charge a person with murder of a non-sapient life.

Another noted exception is that animals on State property as property of the state cannot be killed without permission from the state. Hunters therefore must hunt on their own land. However considering that less then 10% of the total forested area in the Republics is State-Owned, that means that the vast majority of land is available for hunting.

Intentionally harming most kinds of animals unnecessarily is illegal. Punishments range from a few days in prison and a fine to many years behind bars. Serious abusers are often given psychological treatments.

Animal welfare is protected via a comprehensive and broad animal bill of rights which outlines the ways in which humans are allowed to treat, handle, and be in company with animals. The animal bill of rights was ratified in the early 1900s in reply to an onslaught of immigrants who were unscrupulously mistreating Tsvarchivan animals, unfamiliar with the indigenous belief of the Tsvarchivan people.

There are no laws regarding animal cruelty. A man's animal is his and his alone.

They tend not to feel pain or melt the hearts of women and children though.
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

Yikes. I'm fairly certain that in my country, animal rights activists would pursue you, capture you, and treat you as you treat the animals. If the people "don't give a damn" about something as simple yet lovely as animals, then what do they care about? Certainly nothing of worth if they can't be bothered to care about other living things.

I know these words, but this analogy makes no sense. TVs and computers don't feel pain; animals do, and for that reason they are more than simple property to be abused and mistreated.

Oh, so their ability to feel pain makes them superior to property even though a human owns both of them? So I assume it is illegal to kill Protozoa?

Typically, we care about our animals, we treat them fairly and such, harming them is legal however, but it is frowned upon.
Until it is time to eat them, of course, except we don't eat domesticated animals like cats or dogs...

Yes, this is a common practise of the Dragoons, especially the Unitologist types.
It's also common practise to let these creatures free and hunt them.
It satisfies the populace, so we shan't complain.
