Remjnds me of...

Dennis Leary: My fluffy little dog.. He's so cute- There's the problem. We only want to save the cute animals, don't we? Yeah. Why don't we just have animal auditions. Line 'em up one by one and interview them individually.

Dennis: What are you?

Otter: I'm an otter.

Dennis: And what do you do?

Otter: I swim around on my back and do cute little human things with my hands.

Dennis: You're free to go. And what are you?

Cow: I'm a cow.

Denis: Get in the fucking truck, ok pal!

Cow: But I'm an animal.

Dennis: You're a baseball glove! Get on that truck!

Cow: I'm an animal, I have rights!

Dennis: (pointing at leather jacket) Yeah, here's yer fucking cousin, get on the fucking truck, pal!

This is so true.

Animals need to be treated equally. If you wouldn't eat your dog or your cat then why would you eat a cow or a chicken? They're just as intelligent. Just as capable of feeling, of loving.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ unironically would eat a dog or cat.

Grew up where, if we wanted meat, grandpa would go in the back yard and grab a duck or hen... Meat was scarce and came directly from the animal.
