Accidental Vote(permalink)

Posted by emmabowden on Saturday, 26th May 2007 Last updated Saturday, 26th May 2007
I have accidentally voted as an opposer. I am a PETA and BUAV member and am campaigning to end animal experiments.
People who oppose campaigns like this should look into the facts of why they are opposing it - I have studied vivisection for 20 years and have seen many shocking scenes of animal cruelty.

Also, with a growing number of scientists opposing animal experiments more people should open their eyes to the reality of vivisection and start realising that just because something has been tested on an animal does not make it safe for humans. There are many drugs on the market we would never have had if studies in animals had been taken as red (Thalidomide being a prime example)

This is a long and involved argument which I am happy to undertake with anyone who is pro vivisection. Everyone is entitled to their own views but I wish people could be very sure as to why they are voting pro vivisection.
