It had to come ...

A very short post by Kathy of On the third hand, caught my eye. Track it back to this post.

The original story is by Scott at the Daily Ablution. You can access it through this link. I wonder if the RSPCA hasn't got enough to do without this sort of idiocy.

Insect Rights? Soon it won't be possible to swat a fly or apply some germicide without some loon screaming abuse at you for the infringement of somethings rights. Is it just me, or does this not actually undermine the whole question of what rights are exercisable by whom and for what purpose?

DON'T YOU DARE SWAT THAT MOSQUITO! YOU'LL INFRINGE ITS RIGHT TO SUCK YOUR BLOOD AND INJECT YOU WITH SOMETHING UNPLEASANT!

Yeah, that has a certain something to it ....
