I haven't seen the tape, but in order to sue you need either to have your own interests harmed, or you need to be suing under a law which grants a private right of action to sue to enforce the law.  Animal cruelty statutes are usually criminal, and have to be enforced by the district attorney or county prosecutor, not by suit of a private individual.

Muge, instead you should have asked these people if would they eat there own babies ( and many would ) you are asking your question to mostly ignorant people who have no understanding of these issues...who live on a diet of McD and KFC and whose brains are riddled with dormant mad cow virus.\n\nThey have no better understanding than Korean puppy torturers. If it's not human it's food. Post your question where more intelligent people might read it.....Carnivores are cruel.

you are so right the judges were snobs.  What do they know? How many people purchased pet rocks?  The judge that was crying got on my nerves real fast.  Inventions are dumb until they are marketed and sold.  I bet those judges will steal some of the ideas.

Well spotted sofiarose - that one passed me by too - and I like to think I keep an 'eagle-eye' on what they do (by getting daily e-mail updates from http://www.epolitix.com/ which includes the name of legislation to be debated, but not a description of the content).\n\nExcellent article although somewhat out of date (February) and misleading - thank you.\n\nAs of 8 November 2006 the beast became an Act of law.  It's already on the statute books as the "Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006" (2006 Ch. 51).\n\nI've had a quick look at it, and it's no-where near as bad as this LibDem MP makes out - he was scaremongering, unless it has been watered down from its original form.\n\nTake a look at it yourselves......

Have you thought about Arbonne International? It's an excellent opportunity, but it's NOT a get-rich-quick scheme! It DOES take work. It's a European Health & Wellness company that's been around for 26 years, but is just now starting to take off. It's taking the country by storm!  The products are phenomenal...herbally and botanically based, never tested on animals or contain animal products or by-products (vegan approved), no mineral oil, and MANY more unique characteristics.  My team's marketing strategy does NOT include giving home parties (who has time?). It's worth your time to check it out. Check out the link and e-mail me if you’d like more information.  Good luck with whatever you choose!

Michael, I would like to know if there is anyone else that has experience with this company. The OP's quesiton is not redundant. They are seeking more information, information I would like too.

ooohh you had to bring up those 70's sea monkey's! What do you think brought me to Florida? Those damn sea monkey's thats who...They grew into 420lb. creatures no very cute I might add. The rumors started by the town folk in Pennsylvania and they all showed up at the farm at night with torches and pitch forks with the sheriff and the mayor. I had to put them aboard my truck and transport them to the swamp here for their own safety. I didn't have the heart to leave em there..they look sorta like sea horses. They swim with the manatees now!

I think that you need a lot of answers to this. I am also against the use of animals in trials. I aggree with the previous answerer that it is sad and I will add that it is also scarring the purpose they are using them for.\n\nKaterina

PETA like the ACLU have oversteped their boundries,the more they get away with the more they demand,there will come a time when Peta will dictate what we should eat,hunt,fish,and which animal we should  have for a pet.they're just another group out of touch with the rest of the world

In this day in age...living in the "Sue Me" Century...I recommend not posting anything.\n\nThe riding stable has a huge "Use Facilities at Own Risk" sign.  They still got sued, and lost, because a kid got stepped on (by his own horse) and suffered a fractured foot.\n\nOh, he was washing his horse barefoot, with his Mom helping and in a swimsuit, when this occurred.

Sweety, pardon my ignorance but is the USMLE a medical student test or something? Since no one else has answered your question, I'm going to have to apply my legal knowledge as I see it. I'm an ex-cop, not a lawyer but I can tell you that if it is illegal, the truth is, that they probably won't do much about it since the internet is so vast, it's nearly impossible to find all of the sites which post the information. In my view, unethical; yes, illegal; not sure but I'll try to find out, stopping it; no way. I personally like to pass test on my own intelligence but some people just don't care how they do it. It's damned wrong! But, internet policing is not so easy. =) email me with the exact name of the test so I can do some research. rilti8@sbcglobal.net.

I totally disagree with animal testing. They do not only use unadoptable animals they use specially bred dogs, maily beagles. These animals have a miserable existence and some suffer abuse from the lab technicians if they don't tow the line i.e. allow blood to be taken from the vein in their necks without struggling. I have suffered a great deal of trauma from what I have experienced first hand of this practice. It's no good saying only necessary experiments can be done as this is just too ethically difficult to decide so a blanket 'permission' is given to the drugs companies. Each study uses about 50 dogs who only stay alive for 6 months and are then all euthanised. Some of the technicians find this funny....I have seen this! These animals respond to love .... I tried to give it to them....but it didn't save them, probably made it worse for them to accept the cruelty and suffering.

Now you've got me scared and for good reason too.\nWhat can we the consumer do about this anyway?\nIt's all up to us the consumer as our own government doesn't seem to give a hoot about what we eat or put on our skin or what we feed our beloved pets either.\nThis is as shameful as it can get and to think that no one cares to do anything about any of this is even more scary.\nI for one appreciate you bringing this to my attention now.\nWouldn't it be a wonderful world if our own government would research and define what's safe and not safe for us to eat and use?\nI would have never guessed that I had eaten road kill or worse or given my dog or cat that and worse. Everything listed is totally disgusting by any ones standards but unfortunately not our own governments, shame on them for not protecting us as we have trusted them to do so, shame on them!!!!\nAgain I thank you for bring this to my attention.

I don't have an answer for you.  Obviously the people drafting the laws didn't have all of the facts.  Why not call up the trucking lobby and complain?\n\nAdditional: to another answerer I don't think this gentlemen was disputing global warming.  He was merely stating a fact based on his experience.  As far as the animal comment - doesn't surprise me.  A lot of people treat their dogs better than their wives and kids.  \n\nI wish I had answers.  Interesting points though.  I still say write your Congressman or lobby (union, etc).

VILLIANS\n\nPETA KILLS ANIMALS,\n\nHere's two links, the first gives a summary the second show a pdf of the source documents from PETA\n.\nhttp://petakillsanimals.com/petaKillsAnimals.cfm\n\nHere a pdf of the source documents\n\nhttp://petakillsanimals.com/downloads/PetaKillsAnimals.pdf\n\nReally PETA think all the problems would be solved it there just wasn't any people in the world, except them of course. Because they are good people who only kill over 70% of all pets dropped off at their shelter.\n\nDON'T EVER GIVE YOUR PET TO PETA.\n\nPETA literally yells and screams about how others "kill animals" , but since it's cheaper to kill animals the feed them PETA kills them. Such a nice group people.\n\nI know I'm going to get a lot of thumbs down from the PETA supporters, who don't want to hear the truth. So be it.\n\nLive a good life.\n\nEDIT\n\nYou just have to read this.\n\nhttp://www.thisistrue.com/petareply.html\n\nThey admit they kill animals.

I've already shared with you my views on this matter. Would you be surprised if I told you they haven't changed since this morning? Eating commercially raised cattle, pigs, etc is bad for them and worse for us. They have their final revenge when we die of atherosclerotic heart disease. Oh well, what goes around comes around as they say.

Have you contacted them directly?  If you know the state they reside you can do a public records search to see if they are a licensed entity though that doesn't mean they are legitemate.  I would check out the site myself, but I'm a little leary about going to sites I don't know 100%.  Good Luck!
