it’s not rape. it’s a veterinary procedure.

you claim it’s against their will but how can you prove that?

the animal is dead long before I walk into a store or restaurant, and the people who did the killing have already been paid. I have no responsibility for that.

anyone who is willing to think about it for longer than it takes to repeat a slogan.

no, it’s not

it’s not rape. it’s a veterinary procedure. animals don’t consent to any veterinary procedures. it’s not rape.
