Scientists meeting in Canada have called for Dolphins to be given human rights
Experts in philosophy, conservation and animal behaviour argue that many sea based mammals deserve life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Russian Prime Minister Valdimir Putin has seized on this scientific breakthrough and is fast tracking a Cetaceans Bill of Rights through the Russian parliament.
A spokesman for Mr Putin said:-
“What is important is affording these creatures the rights they deserve…
…obviously with rights comes the power to vote and we’re certain they will want to thank Prime Minister Putin in his upcoming Presidential election”
Well the are the only other mammal that have sex for fun, supposedly. So why not give them rights..haha
evryone have rights in these days:P
The story made me lol, the picture made me wish I had sunglasses.
I hope they get there rights! But since not all people have rights yet we should also work on that!
That's going a bit far haha
They should have the right to vote, just like the rest of us.
Here in Texas, that would mean that members of the state legislature are a) protesting that dolphin rights are un-biblical, and b) making sure the poor things can exercise their right to bear arms.
I know it's actually hard to convey facial expressions outside of emotes over the Internet medium, but man…my jaw friggin' hit the ground.
Like…really?
I mean…really?
…really dude?
I, for one, welcome our soon-to-be cetacean overlords. None will be able to withstand the pummeling of their muscular dolphin penonos.
GET YOUR GUNS AND BULLETS NOW! BUY CHASTITY BELTS FOR EVERYONE! GET A RIOT SHIELD ASAP~!
Dolphins are really good in a sandwich.
lolwut
Dolphins should have a "porpoise" you know.
that is fairly funny right there.
Will the folks fishing for tuna that come up with flipper instead be tried for murder?
I wonder who those dolphins are paying to do these things…
This is bloody brilliant. That wacky Putin, you just never know what he'll get up to next, except being President for the rest of his life. Great drawings again!
This kind of reminds me of that South Park episode where the manatees chose the different balls.
They'll probably head for the moon, just as with the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
That's so cool!
This is great!
i heard something about this last nite on late nite radio and was like "wtf am i listneing to"
wtf did I just read?
Ah cheesecake with popping candy would be amazing! And this story is insane, as much as I love animals I really can't see dolphins being interested in voting, heck, half the humans on this planet don't want to vote when they have the chance! xxx
Ah yes and oh no, you beat me to it. This was going to be the topic in my next posting.
Still, an excellent observation on this, my friend. The Russians are right or are you 'Putin' me on….
I heard that dolphins are to be considered 'non-human persons'. Now, what would be the um porpoise in that?
Cheers buddy and I thank you very much for your thoughtful comment on my last post.
In kindness, Gary
