I've become more of an animal rights person since rescuing Tilly but I still think I have some balance. Then I read this article about inhumane treatment in China -- and the move to legislate some protections. And I don't buy that this is a move to imprint Western beliefs -- it's about cruelty and decency. While they've used a kitten picture (thanks JH), it's the image of those poor dogs lined up and waiting to be slaughtered that's behind today's outrage.
