I oppose the most radical portions of the agendas of groups such as HSUS and PETA. These agendas are not intended solely to promote the welfare of dogs, but seek to bestow on them rights, in some cases equivalent to those of human beings. They want to ban breeding of all domesticated animals, including purebred dogs.

I too oppose the most radical portions of PETA's agenda.

But without some government regulation, how do you guarantee humane treatment for all dogs (animals) or ethical breeding practices or not having down animals in the food supply or other abuses that have been widely documented?

Leave it to voluntary industry self-regulation? W/o some level of government oversight, when has industry acted in the best public interest and not their own self-interest?

In the future maybe no one will be allowed to own pets?

Sounds like your "parroting" propaganda.
