Human rights for dolphins

SmartPig.jpg


This week’s sign of the impending Apocalypse: Romania’s parliament is debating whether to grant human rights to dolphins. Eric Holder is watching closely – if he finds out that dolphins lean left politically, he’ll be all over this issue like olive oil on sardines.

  • Curses. How did Romania get ahead of the US in this area? An easy fix for king Barry and his pen and telephone. Ohhh, and how the media will praise him!!!!

  • Neo-7 is onto something. Why so many dolphin haters?

    I know...

    It's the blowhole.

    Aquatic mammalphobes.

    Bigots.

    • I think it's the blowholes that lead to so much dolphin trafficking out of Eastern Europe. They recruit them young out of the Black Sea, promise them jobs and money in the Caribbean, and the next thing they know the poor dolphins are working the seedy canals of Miami, earning $5 per trick with their blowholes, under the watchful eye of some Russian manatee. I see it all the time.

  • If its a dolphin that is not sure about its dolphin sexual orientation , why not ? If we grant human rights to all the displaced dolphins , they may discover " who they are . What compassion we could show . We could make it a hate crime to capture these specific dolphins in the tuna nets . I think it would be " glorishish " to have a dolphin affimative action program that mandated that only LGBT dophins be allowed to work at the good paying jobs , to make up for decades of LGBT dolphin oppression . I mean dolphin - pride would bring a tear to the eye of any non judgemental dolphin lover , unless of coarse you are one of those hate filled scum that can't see this .

    Yes , lets give them the rights their lifestyle craves .---- LIbtards ( She Who Must Not Be Named )

    • Dolphins seem pretty androgynous to me, so the sex change operations should be easy. Snip snip, tuck tuck, bam! you're a female dolphin.

  • Damn it, now we have to deal with another potential voting block that the liberal idiots will be courting in this country as well, with our tax money. And since they can't hold a pen, the libs will have to assign people through the Federal Voter Assistance program to help them.
    No chance of voter fraud, of course.

  • Just going off the top off my head, I know they're not on the Med., do they even have coastline on the Black Sea or are they landlocked?

      • Indigenous. Oh no, I smell another "they were here first, we stole their land" victimization campaign. Next thing we'll hear about is a campaign to change the name of the Miami Dolphins.

        • I can see that happening.
          The Washington Redskins management keeps getting harassed by left wing groups and the government to change the name, but they keep getting messages from Native Americans that support them not changing the name.

  • Explanation of picture: the highest I've ever seen dolphins rated is third, after chimpanzees and pigs. I've also seen them rated as low as tenth in animal intelligence. If you've ever seen what octopuses do in labs, you know why. And crows and parrots have languages with hundreds, maybe even thousands, of words.

    So why did the Romanian pick dolphins?

  • Romania's PETA chapter must be working overtime..Next Dolphin's will get driver's licenses, welfare, and free phones.....and all the mackerel they can eat for school lunches.....plus free medical care! Forward!! over the cliff....loons...
