When people eat people its called canibalism. Be wary of making parallels here.

You will notice I was responding to Wakim who said " the act in question is one that demeans the man, not the beast, and that is the correct reason for imposing legislation designed to prevent or punish such an act - not because it harms animals".



I addressed the animal issue earlier. Obviously if someone was hurting an animal it would be bad, but that is in no way clear in most the cases.
We essentially force pets to do our will(either by force or with our intelligence.)
So if your going to complain about the lack of consent by animals you should also becalling all pets and beasts of burdon - slaves.

If your not willing to go to such extremes then your point is moot.
