It’s nice that Catriona MacLennon and Animal Agenda Aotearoa care about
animals (Feeble animal welfare laws should be an election issue, July
30). But it’s nasty that they can recognise a ‘link between animal cruelty,
child abuse and domestic violence’ but not the link between cruelty to children
before birth (abortion) and after birth (child abuse).
It’s even nastier that they care about animals as ‘sentient beings capable
of feeling’ but not apparently children in utero who suck their thumbs, respond
to music, to their mother’s voice and to pain, who are routinely put down with
absolutely no regard for the feelings they are scientifically proven to
possess.
