I have over and over. Simply the fact that you're irrational is why
you don't remember and it has never sunk in.


Cop out.

Just note that the chance of a non-troll post from Alt.net is
vanishingly small.

where are the statistics
for the "Nationwide declaw ban"??

in the same place as your fascist European gun ban. Your government
says you people just can't be trusted with guns.


Idiot child, you presume to know an awful lot about "my government." Pity you
don't know as much about reading headers. **** off.

You forgot:


list of countries snipped

That's your argument? Nothing to say on the article I shared? No sources
for your claims? I'm still not convinced.

No one is arguing for declawing cats as a matter of course in the
keeping of them. It's an argument about access to professional, safe,
and legal procedure when other efforts fail or cannot be undertaken.
It these sweeping generalizations that turn people off to your point of
view.


Ur, Brandy darling....you were *indeed* arguing for declawing cats as a
matter of course for keeping them. Say you:

"This is the first time i've declawed a cat and for our relationship is was
necessary."

I highly doubt other efforts had failed and could not be undertaken, unless
you mean you tried to train your cat to use the scratching post and couldn't
do it the first day. However, if you'd have taken even a cursory look at
the links I provided, you will see that even in the countries declawing is
banned, there *is* still access to a professional safe and legal procedure
when other efforts fail or cannot be undertaken, so no one who's cat has a
medically necessary reason for being declawed need resort to a back alley
chop job.

Feel better now?
