    Why is declawing your pets enough to get them taken away.

    Yes... you presume because a cat doesn't say otherwise - she agrees with you. Rather ... narcissistic don't you think?

    Why is declawing your pets enough to get them taken away.

    Why would you remove a cat's defense system? If you don't mistreat it then it won't use those claws on you. And if furniture matters more to you than a living cat - perhaps you should rethink having a cat? And I fail to see why you have a "right" do do what you please to any living creature -...

    A prayer for Davin Gusav....

    The problem with "Every man is a potential rapist"

    All men are NOT "deep down rapists" (I'd go so far to say that the majority are not) and at least 95% of the men I've met are quite capable of controlling themselves and do so, and I'd find the generalisation ludicrous if it wasn't for the fact that I've met a woman (but only 1) who really did...

    The problem with "Every man is a potential rapist"

    ----------------------------- If you can find it, buy your daughter a book called How to Say No to Rapist and Survive by Frederic Storaska. Been out of print for a long time now but it is (and should be) "The Woman's Bible."

    The problem with "Every man is a potential rapist"

    That's a rather silly statement - every normal man (by which I mean one capable of "getting it up" is capable of rape. (That kinda goes without saying.) I met a woman once who taught self-defense to other women (to help them stave off rape.) She believed absolutely: "There are only two kinds of...
