Oh yes, and the people defending the healthcare system that's great when you're either healthy or rich.

If someone does this at home on their pet, they should be charged with felony animal abuse. I've heard of pit bull owners actually using scissors! Grr. Also, backyard breeding should be banned & person caught doing so without a license should be jailed & fined.

Declawing cats should be illegal everywhere! It's literally cutting off the tips of there fingers

Cropping of tails and ears is illegal in South Africa

Both should be summarily outlawed and made into a felony unless there's a demonstrable medical need for the procedure.

omg yes! those poor dogs and cats... ;-;

I always like the way they looked BEFORE they were mangled. Never could understand why people did this.

A couple in Scotland are banned from breeding dogs for life after cropping the ears of an American bully puppy and stitching it up with fishing line.

Cropping tails is stupid. Dogs can’t balance without them.

Also that tail thing they do too. If you have a pet love it the way it was born. Cat declawing should be against the law honestly. Ask the owners if they want their fingernails torn out an tips clipped off their fingers.

I had never seen a dog with cropped ears until recently, I had no idea it was was thing. When I saw it I was absolutely appalled!! I couldn't believe anyone would do that to a dog!! I am glad I live in Australia where it has been illegal since before I was born (since 1986 in Victoria).

I agree! But I would also make whole fur industry illegal. It's too brutal! No living being deserves that kind of torture just so that some rich ass can wear fur coat.

I have known about this practice, but I didn't know it was considered LEGAL.

Declawing of cats is cruelty and should be banned in the entire US.

I didn't know about declawing a cat being bad until it was too late. It was 10 years ago and I still feel horrible

Should all be illegal. So inhumane

My cats actually had their front claws removed because they both had 2 nails in one toe and it was hurting them, so sometimes it's necessary.

This is a form of animal cruelty and should not be legal.

Do veterinaries can refuse to do it, in US?

yesssssssss!!!! i 100% agree!!

A lot of

And de-barking, in Australia de-barking is legal in one of the states.

And mass-murdering animals for food and clothing

I think that cat declawing might be ok, but it MUST be done professionally

Ugh, yes, I read a story a while back where a 12 year old was marrying a 30 year old man. It's disgusting, it makes me sad even thinking of it.

I'd agree with the idea, that politicians who get sponsored need to wear the logo of the person paying them. It's normal in sports, it should be normal in politics. I'd love to know who got bought by whom.

I 100% agree, I f*****g hate child beauty pageants. A lot of the time it seems to be the mums that want it and not the actual kids. And don’t get me started on the stage mums that wax their kids eyebrows, dress them provocatively, cake on the makeup like a cheap hooker, teaching their kids that looks are everything and they have to fit a certain mould, spray tanning them in the colour of an Oompa Loompa, padding the chest area, promoting plastic surgery and more. These are kids for Christ sakes, if the parents want to be in a beauty pageant then they should go ahead but a beauty pageant is not a place for kids. Especially when they don’t have the cognitive ability to think of the consequences.

I am Security in Canada trying to get enough experience to work for the Govt, and even with Covid going on None of us got extra pay. At 41 Im making the same wage I did at 23.

NOW THIS is a problem!! When I’m tryna click the teeny weeny x, instead I just click the ad and it takes me to the App Store! 😡

Many 'peaceful religion' countries put even homosexuals and apostates to death.

Ricky Gervais put it perfectly - Apple product manufacturing outsourced company's 18 employees (Foxconn) committed suicide. Apple makes products which are heavily marked up. It's a trillion dollar company. Yet sanctimonious celebs have no problem working for Apple TV. People have more problem with Amazon than they do with Apple!

Ugh, this one annoys me so bloody much. Especially when I am wearing headphones watching catch up tv.

I would add "editing those textbooks in one or two little ways every year so that the students can't buy last year's used textbooks since they 'aren't the correct edition'"

Conversion therapy is still legal? That's disgusting.

Because you will get this: A company that has operated a private prison in Estancia [New Mexico] for nearly three decades has announced it will close the Torrance County Detention Facility and lay off more than 200 employees unless it can find 300 state or federal inmates to fill empty beds within the next 60 days, according to a statement issued Tuesday by county officials. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/8/1/1686101/-Private-for-profit-prison-threatens-to-close-unless-government-finds-them-more-prisoners

No, in the US Internal Affairs is hated by regular officers, and in Canada it is done by Civilians who are a third party.

YES, YES, YES. Parents should NEVER use their child as a p**n in a custody game or lie and manipulate to get what they want. You have to be completely selfish to do things like that, only thinking of yourself and getting revenge and not what is right for the child and their needs/wants etc.

Most European countries have laws against this. In the Netherlands you must be able to unsubscribe as easily and in the same way as you subscribe. Companies that are failing to do so can expect hefty fines.

I wouldn't mind the ads so much if the robot overlord could use its AI powers to figure out that I don't want to buy a damn Buick, and I won't drink shitty alcohol!

The point theyre trying to make is EVERY APP DOES THIS! Even AVG anti virus wants to be allowed to look at your texts and change what happens on your phone. None of them need to be able to do anything or see anything on your phone. It isnt even things they could relate to advertising to you
