      More that we ought to treat the animals humanely in the process, and limit animal testing to situations where it’s a medication that really benefits people, and not a cosmetic.

      It’s hard to see how an action which results in burned monkey testicles is consistent with that.

      I am a vegan and applaud your moral consistency. News articles like this are full of fake outrage by people who support the animal ag industry that commits worse crimes at massively larger scales every single day. In regards to animal welfare this guy and the puppy killer are only very marginally worse than anyone else.

      edit: obligatory downvotes by people who want to be mad at animal abuse while supporting animal abuse.

        I’m just trying to stay humble one triple bacon cheeseburger at a time. Spreading the good word of my gluttony to the people.
