Ban the UK from importing and receiving animal tested cosmetics
The population of the UK do not understand the amount of pain and torture that animals have to go through for the sake of our vanity.
So humans have rights but animals don't?
We are animals, but having a higher IQ and apposable thumbs suddenly means we can abuse innocent creatures? !
More than 100 million animals are poisoned, burned, crippled, and abused in other ways in U.S. labs each year. THAT IS JUST IN THE US THINK OF CHINA AND JAPAN AND GERMANY.
No experiment is illegal, no matter how cruel, irrelevant to human health, redundant, or painful.
Ninety-five percent of animals used for experiments are excluded from the only federal law offering any sort of protection.
Even when valid alternatives to animals are available, the law doesn’t require that they be used.
Ninety-two percent of experimental drugs that are safe and effective on animals fail in human clinical trials because they don’t work or are dangerous.
