But I'm right though

Well, actually, you can't technically be right or wrong here since it's all opinion... but that's just a minor detail.

My real point is that you're (possibly, perhaps you've looked into other sources as well) getting all your info from PETA. These are people who are very, very opinionated about this, and their site going to attempt to convince you that they are right and all other opinions are wrong. The point is, they're going to be more than a little biased, and if you make a decision about one opinion being correct and others being incorrect before looking at an argument for the other side, you technically aren't well-informed enough to pick a side. (Note that I'm not accusing Dukie of not looking at an argument for the other side before making his claims, I'm just stating this...)

As for my stance on animal testing... yeah, it's bad, but I'm not going to go become an activist because of it. Personally, I agree with EatTheRats that there are more important issues for me to be concerned with... although technically I'm not too terribly concerned with them right now seeing as I'm quite tired and should probably take a nap. Anyways. If you're so adamently against animal testing that you have to post a big rant on a Dink Smallwood message board, why don't you actually hop a flight to these testing labs and picket, or start a letter-writing campaign, or organize a protest? Make your bite louder than your bark and do something about this if you have such an issue with it. Change the world or something.
