There's nothing wrong with that, but that doesn't mean the people trying to make that small difference are bad because they didn't pick the issue that is more tragic

I think issues like this are very personal. I don't judge anyone because they do or do not donate to charities and do volunteer work. I personally do (and btw...I donate to PETA AND the United States Humane Society, AND I volunteer at the local humane society. But I don't think that makes me more or less of an animal lover. It's just a personal choice, and something that makes my life complete) because there are so many more other things I wish I could do, so I just do what little I can. But to insinuate it's less important and we all should be fighting for something grander and better is offensive. I'm sorry that you didn't mean it that way, but that's the way it came across

Another thing about animal rights: I don't love babies, but they are just as innocent as animals. I would NEVER in a million years want someone to abuse children or hurt them in any way. But the fact of the matter is, they have a voice. They have more people fighting for them. Animals do too, to an extent, but kinda like you hinted-there are other more important things out there. (more important to other people, not myself). So the overall thought of society is that it's not a priority, but to me it is. Someone has to do it, and that's what I think of everytime I go to the shelter and help, or every time I pick up a stray on the side of the road. someone has to do it. It's just that not many do so it's kinda like fighting for the underdog. no pun intended.
