    The pro gun control voice could certainly gain influence if they establish a more united voice.The pro-gun rights voice is rapidly gaining influence while the pro-gun control voice has tapered in recent weeks. The pro-gun control voice is split between Obama and several gun control advocacy groups which dilutes the message.

    This link is not working for me. I wish it did. My kids used to attend a school where uniforms were required. Now they attend a school with no uniform policy. I would be interested to read this article and see another person's perspective and how it compares to my own.

    I personally have never been a fan of school uniforms for my own children but I can understand how they are warranted in some districts. Some parents may not be able to affront the things other students have making them feel inferior; this allows for everyone to maintain the same sense of self without being picked on.

    I can see both sides to this issue but honestly I think that children should be able to pick what they want to wear appropriate of course but to be able to have that voice through clothing when they might not have a voice in general can do a lot of a child I think.

    Good points. Are you vegan or vegetarian? Most animals have the ability to feel pain. Adolf Hitler stated that prey species such as deer, elk, gazelle, antelopes, etc. are healthier and can run for longer periods of time and promoted healthy eating (though he was a hippocrate and ate meat himself). When people eat meat they get tired easier, need more water, and have less energy. Without a moral foundation one can justify almost anything. Do you think Christian doctrine is to blame? After all, God told Peter to eat meat. Maybe it was the best choice in order to make peace with the gentiles and not eating meet would have made Peter look aloof. Then again, in Genesis it states that God gave mankind plants to eat and not meat. From a convenient point of view is it practical to only buy products that are not made from animals? Even makeup has animal products in it. What about shoes, clothes, purses, etc? Also, if you have time, I would suggest researching Ralph Smart. Have a good day.

    I enjoyed reading this article as well. Animals have very similar traits as humans. They eat, feel, and suffer just as humans do. Why should we strict them of their rights? Just because they do not have a voice to defend themselves does not mean we should ignore the equality they deserve.

    I loved this! Animals have such a huge place in my heart and definitely deserve all the rights as us humans do. I hate hearing stories or seeing videos posted on Facebook of animals being neglected.. I don't understand how some people can do such a thing to an animal who cannot even defend themselves. They just want to be loved and nurtured.
  • sau2124985 on 30 Jan 17
     
    The article made some great points. Animals do suffer. They feel pain and fear. Because of this, they definitely should be given rights. Like the article stated, I grew up eating meat, but have made the transition into vegetarianism thanks to my wife who is a vegan. All it took was for me to be educated on where our meat is coming from and the conditions of the animals being slaughtered. If people could read these types of articles and watch documentaries like "Earthlings" and "Cowspiracy" I am sure they might also consider vegetarianism or veganism.

    About 700 to 1,000 activists came out to voice their opinion for change during the March for Social Justice and Equality in Murray, chanting and holding signs with ambitions to send a message to the new presidential administration on the first day of the term. This is widely known as the "Women's March." It was much more than the dislike of Donald Trump, or abortion, it was about other social justices such as defending people of different colors, races, and sexual origin.

    This website states that those suffering with mental illnesses experience social injustice because of the social stigma that a pill is needed rather than seeking treatment from therapists. When those seeking help from a doctor for anxiety, they will most likely prescribe a drug rather than sending you to get help from a therapist.

    This is so powerful. Voice of the Martyrs is an amazing organization. What I find to be so sad, is how in today's world, so many people are up in arms about how they think they have been mistreated or overlooked, yet when Christians are out there suffering horrendous things, they all look the other way and pretend not to notice. I mean, other people's problems are important, but I feel society turns a blind eye towards Christians.

    The fact that we continue to face and see discrimination when it comes to health care is appalling. When dealing with health, health care providers should not be biased on who to help due to their skin color or certain characteristics.
