Since you mention WWII comparisons: In 2002 modern day Germany has entered the protection of nature as well as animal rights into its federal constitution – a constitution that begins with the words “the dignity of man is untouchable”. Things can change… In general there is an enormous gap between the EU and the US. The US could not become an EU member state, because it falls short in many issues related to human rights and environmental protection.

No matter what – I assume that even without this “act” it has previously been illegal to destroy someone elses property or enter their premises without consent. I absolutely do not see why such a specific act should be required, unless certain groups of people with certain beliefs and agendas are to be singled out, intimidated and this silenced – a tactic that is a hallmark of dictatorships.

Dear all,

it is very, very, very, very difficult to express just how absurd, out of control and completely arbitrary this kind of legislations looks to Western Europeans. It truly feels as if long ago corporations have stopped influencing the government in the US but instead BECAME the governing authority. I would not even want to analyze this insane mental outflow because the very name of the bill already renders it intellectually and ethically unacceptable.

Sorry it got to busy for me to finish, nonetheless, an entertaining resistance against what we might assume is one of the most postmodernist punditries of modern man, animal breeding, testing, and use of them as products, but luckily there is a side of government who rejects such pointless entertaining cackles from, instead of calling them corporations, I prefer to call them big private businesses who are only out to ruin anything corporate that makes sense if you think about it. Nonetheless, people who would die for a monkey or dog are pretty entertaining also. Send them all off to war! Har, har, har.
