Question

Animal abuse/rights, environment, child abuse are my main 3 in that order. I try not to even come to mylot if I am in a b*tchy mood cause it never fails to come out here on those issues if I happen to run across them.

I am also passionate about animal cruelity,and another thing i am passonate about is child abuse...These things really bother me...

I think it is great you feel that way about not eating meat, but it will not stop me from eating it. I love animals too, and take them them off the street and I do anything that I can for them. I like to stay away from american politics, I am a canadian but some not all mind you but some american act like the want to kill a person that doesn't have the same political views that they do. I have been on a few foreigns in the past that I left in discussed, these people were down right vicious.

Yeah it's the animals for me too. Cosmetic testing on animals, factory farms, dairy cows, battery cage hens the list goes on. I've copped some slack for speaking up about these things and you find that a lot of people stereotype animal lovers as being crazy stupid animal rights campaigners. They'll put you down without even listening to your point of view. I prefer to just casually drop things into the conversation here and there instead of jamming things down people's throats. I like it when I make a subtle comment and then someone asks me more questions about the issue. I also feel quite strongly about gay rights. I'm not gay, nor do I really know anybody who is but it just bothers me so much and gets me riled up.

Bigotry in any form be it racial, religious , sexuality you name it! We are all entitled to our own opinions and I respect that but what I cannot tolerate is when people are nasty, abusive and hurtful to others as they think their opinions are all that matters - it is very easy to disagree with another persons opinion without falling out, name calling or any other kind of attack! If we could all be more tolerant , respectful and caring of others the world would be a far better place! And so ends Mummymo's sermon! lol xxx

its actually the politics and the human rights itself...specially my rights...i always talk about it whenever i see something on news and had heard something that has something to do with it...i'm no expert with human rights but i tend to know every rights i have and every people's right as well...also with regards to human law...i really love this topics and i always have my fair share with it... have a wonderful day...

Hunting for sport gets me going. I can remember an argument at work with a hunter and the next thing you know I am pretending to be Bambi's mother running up and down the hallways like a goof. It makes my blood boil. I also get upset about religion sometimes and try to keep my mouth shut but sometimes I just can't. I am an Atheist and work with someone who insists that we all believe in some higher power. I then have to inform her that no, we don't all believe in some higher power. I believe in me! Then there are the people that hate based on weight. I get upset when people think that fat people are all lazy and eat like pigs. These are a few of the things that send me off the deep end. I have to say I get most upset at cruelty to animals though. I like animals more than people.

Wikipedia tells me that stone tools were invented several million years ago, Up until that time humans would have been vegetarians out of necessity. But in the centuries that followed Humans discovered Fire, and learned to cook meat. Meat changed their lives dramatically, for now they an easy source of protein,a source of energy and heat to warm them in the winter and to provide the energy to hunt and gather food. They were better able to raise more and healthier children. People ate meat and Loved it. Meat provides the flavor to make soup, and the seasoning in which to cook vegetables. People have been healthy and happy carnivores for upwards to 1 million Years! People Have for a good part of their evolution have been carnivorous. Our digestive system is that of a carnivore.And the fact that the average person on the street Loves his/her meat proves this point to me! Everyone has the right of choice in their eating habits. As a Senior I have recently cut down on the percentage of meat on my plate. I have discovered that I don't need as much red meat as I used to eat,Perhaps Vegetarians are a throw-back to the ancient Herbivores! Fad diets have always been trendy! Go with what seems right for you and God Bless!

Hi wooitsmolly! I am passionate too on some things but I was able to master control! haha..I don't get riled up unless provoked. LOL! And don't worry, now that you have clarify some things about you, the next time I get to see you being passionate or riled up in a discussion, I won't look at you as a loony..just someone very passionate and well versed on the topic! Just my thoughts dear friend. Take care and have a nice day!

Hi wooitsmolly, I love animals and I can get very upset when I see them being mistreated. So far, I have not given up eating meat, so I cannot talk about those who kill for food, as long as it is done humanely. I am not gay myself, but I have a brother who is, and him and his partner have lived together for over 30 years. They are the happiest couple that I know and it is always a pleasure to visit with them. I become upset when I see gays being treated as second class citizens and sometimes refused even the most basic of rights. I have little patience with those who continue to claim that being gay is a choice. There are others, but these are two of the things that can get me riled. I need to take a deep breath now. Blessings.

I don't find your views extremist or weird at all. I am passionate about green issues and the environment and how long it has taken politicians to take notice of things I have known for years about the damage we are doing to our beautiful planet and the destruction we cause to so much of the natural environment. As I get older I get increasingly upset whenever I read or hear about innocent children being made to suffer, from abuse, neglect or cruelty.

Be that weird extremist vegan girl, if that is who you are.... Womens rights, equality, civil rights. I'm big on politics, but what bothers me is I find that politics is very personal and starts at home, and is vested in core beliefs. People just try to think of it as another world, but it's the world that affects this world we live in directly....And people don't seem to care as much as they should.... I'm appalled at all the things that go on in this country, that everyone talks about and says is so horrible, but they do absolutely not a thing...

I have many subjects that get me riled up, some are small, some are large. I am also passionate about animals and animal rights, children and parenting. I get into more heated discussions over the sate of society today, and how everyone feels they have to dress like hookers for whatever reason. My list goes on, it all depends on my mood and the currect circumstances.

yea i think mine would be anything animal relationship or gay related

mine is when someone rights about the illeagle people here or point out that the polititions want o make them legal so they can vote! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Well, for me, it would probably be anything that is unfair. As in unfair rising of prices at the expense of the peope. As in unfair treatment of people when it comes to distribution of wealth. As in unfair treatment of people who work their butt off for a company who fire them without batting an eyelid. ... ... stuff like that. I gripe a lot, but there was nothing much I could do about such things. Drives my wife nutty sometimes. Other wise, as long as I have no worries about life, pretty much anything can go by me without riling me too much.
