    Or, is the American Public really that STUPID ?

    I am seeing rants about Fauci funding animal research.

    Of all the real and serious CRIMES of Fauci et al; this is a silly diversion to be stressing.

    Would we rather not have "research"? Or, maybe, use YOUR children as test subjects?

    As a retired Academic Physician, let me tell that animal research is extremely necessary to protect Humans.

    Perhaps this is a counter-"psy-opps" operation by the left to divert attention away from the many real crimes and problems we now see.

    Don't combine serious issues with nonsense like this.

    Please THINK !

    As a research technician, I used rats, rabbits, chickens, sheep, and indirectly monkeys, for research. I never used dogs, but watching other labs that did, I always thought that the most pitiful, though those animals were usually already broken. One tech, a friend, had a standing agreement with her boss to rescue any dog supplied that was worth rescuing...

    I don't see how research can be done, to benefit humans, without using animal models.

    Hey bucko purposely burning parts of a monkey's brain out to torture it and see what happens is a little farther than testing the newest medication.

    If you support tthat shit please tell me now so I can add you to the block list because you're too evil to deal with. I'm not against animal testing, but I am against torturing them just to see what happens.

    Bear in mind....what we see reported is often a twisted version of the REAL facts of the matter, sans any explanation that would further your understanding. There was a cow at a research facility with a "window" in her side. One paper ran a huge sob story about the "cruelty" of it, creating a huge uproar. The lab director countered with the explanation that it was used to evaluate the cause/effect of various feeds/plants that cattle would react to, and that it had been instrumental in finding several causes for entire herds becoming sick/dying. Without that cow, they'd have been years finding it rather than months. IOW, before you get upset, Do YOUR research.

    Yes. Cows who have this done to them is normal research and they are often taken care of very well and live a happy life.

    DP also is good about doing his research.

    Id just remind everyone to not be dicks to each other if it ain’t needed. No I wasn’t calling you a dick. Just felt like throwing that reminder out there.

    Typing this while my beagle/GSD mix sleeps at my feet...

    I'm trying to find a good, scientific reason to let flies slowly eat a trapped dog's head. Maybe there is one but it escapes my obviously neanderthal understanding.

    "Of particular concern is the fact that the invoice to NIAID included a line item for 'cordectomy.' As you are likely aware, a cordectomy, also known as 'devocalization,' involves slitting a dog's vocal cords in order to prevent them from barking, howling, or crying," the letter went on.

    "This cruel procedure - which is opposed with rare exceptions by the American Veterinary Medical Association, the American Animal Hospital Association, and others - seems to have been performed so that experimenters would not have to listen to the pained cries of the beagle puppies. This is a reprehensible misuse of taxpayer funds," the lawmakers said.

    Al Capone was finally nailed for tax evasion.
    If this is what gets that cocksucker burned, good.
    It is far past time to keep playing the high road game with communists.

    Also, I see absolutely no scientific reason to have a beagle’s head eaten alive by parasites.

    Personally, I don’t feel the same about all animals.

    So while I find any unnecessary cruelty to be abhorrent, I also don’t care as much about mice as I do about beagles or any other dog.

    This is one case where as far as I’m concerned some animals really are more equal than others, because I like them and they are good boys.

    If they fly thing is true I hope all involved burn to death before burning in hell.

    Glad the lawmakers are here to be outraged at that experiment but not about VAERS and all the rest of us being threatened with losing our livelihood for refusing the big pharma experiment. We really do live in a clown world

    This! It’s time we stop treating these people like “fellow Americans”, but like the enemy they are.

    I have seen several of these labs over the years, and I have never seen anything like that. Even our Med School Labs had Veterinarians to insure proper treatment of all animals above worm level.

    Since when did Hoji start believing inflammatory propaganda from PETA ?
