"While Abortions Kill Babies, Court in Argentina Grants Basic Human Rights to an Orangutan" An Argentinian court ruled this week that a orangutan named Sandra should receive some of the same legal rights as human beings, according to the BBC.
Position 9
Not in use
The court decided that while the 20-year-old animal was not a human being, she is a “person” who deserves certain legal rights, according to the report. Lawyers for the orangutan argued that she was being illegally detained in the Buenos Aires zoo and that she had “probable cognitive capability,” the BBC reported.
The court ruled in the orangutan’s favor, allowing her to be transferred to an animal sanctuary in Brazil, the report states.
While animals deserve to be treated humanely, the case is a reminder of the diminishing rights across the world for certain groups of human beings. While courts focus on giving rights to animals, every day tens of thousands of babies in the womb are aborted world-wide and denied the right to life.

I’ll grant the the orangutan probably has more motherly attachment to her young than the murderers who rip a baby from its mother ,dissect it for valuable (to them) parts and smile all the way to a bank. Wild animals don’t do such a thing only moronic liberals.
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Right turn Clyde!
As humanity is being made despicable, via culture, drugs, food, air and water, animals are rising up. BLM and it’s hypocrisy is a case in point. In that recent Hollywood turd rise of planet of apes they told us all about it. Avatar likewise. This is transhumanism, and everything which makes us superior to animals must be crushed or even better inverted. Popular culture is toxic and it isn’t even the half of what is being done to people, without their knowledge, and of course, ignorance is bliss.
Get ready for new rights for animals and children, to,replace ours.
