What I can't stand and what I get so sick of is this "political correctness" about EVERYTHING. Is there no right or wrong? Is EVERYTHING a grey area? is everything only depending on whose point of reference you're looking at? "What is "right" for some people may not be "right" for some other people." OH COME ON!!!!!! Are there that many people who can't make a stand for anything anymore? What kind of brains does it take to see that puppy mills and practices which exclude everything that makes breeding dogs moral and healthy are WRONG?????
What is it with people who can't see right in front of their nose? For goodness sake! Take a stand, get some back bone and stop making meely mouth excuses for the mistreatment and haphazard breeding practices of these puppy millers, mass production farms. This tolerance for everything anyone does, no matter how immoral, because they might have a different view point is what's wrong with America.
Remember hearing that line in school? "There is no right or wrong answer." Not everything is a grey area. Not everything is up for interpretation, depending on each individual's frame of reference. Puleeeeze. Does that mean that there should be tolerance for murderers and rapists because to us, what they do is wrong, but from their standpoint it is not? Must we analyze everything to death? Something like this...is either right or wrong, heatlhy and good for dogs or it isn't. There is NO grey area. There shouldn't be any tolerance for all this type of exploitation of dogs. What a lot of non-sensical banter has been going on.
Dizzy, it's all fine and dandy that you have this ability to see both sides to something, to see different view points, to make allowances for certain things. But choose the things you apply that nice quality to. Not everything in life works that way. You need to take a stand on certain issues. This is one issue where I think you're getting bogged down with that political correctness where there is really only one answer to what makes a breeder responsible, caring, cautious and conscientious with how they breed dogs. Puppy mills, breeding mass quatities of dogs with little of the established cautionary measures employed are wrong. Period.
