Oh yeah, but Americans want the easy way out, and when they get it, they justify it by saying "well it was either that or they went back to the pound to die!"

I'm sorry if I'm mischaracterising you people here, but my god, sitting here watching you people trying to justify something that is incalculably inhumane? Wow.

Please don't focus only on the ones defending this practice. I think you would find a large segment of our population is against it... much more so than in the past, for sure. Also, it is something that people have not been educated on yet. The more it is exposed, the more it will be shunned.

It would be like me saying, "Mexicans are just macho cavemen because they only want male dogs that have their balls still attached." Because people (me included) tend to focus on what is wrong or irritating about a group of easily distinguished people (ie: by race or location), doesn't mean you should generalize the group without looking further into it.
