Apes? Must be they think its is thier Grandfathers.

[GSlob]

"There are only a few hundred apes in Spain,"
Many more, I'm afraid.

This is madness. Apes are not the equivalent of humans in intelligence and reasoning (except perhaps Spanish leftists).

[BenLurkin]

The Islamofacistss must be laughing their lice covered heads off about this.

"Andalusia will be easy pickings when we get back around to their campaign there!"

[michigander]

Kool!

[dighton]

Hey Spain, there’s a war on.

[tx_eggman]

Take your stinking paws off me, you damned dirty ape!

[HaveHadEnough]

This is why I'm a Second Amendment supporter. If the great apes had and could use firearms, they'd have rights.

"Peter Singer"

Isn't he the guy who favors legalized bestiality?

From his Wiki entry:

"He favors a 'journey' model of life, which measures the wrongness of taking a life by the degree to which doing so frustrates a life journey's goals. So taking a life is less wrong at the beginning, when no goals have been set, and at the end, when the goals have either been met or are unlikely to be accomplished. The journey model is tolerant of some frustrated desire, explains why persons who have embarked on their journeys are not replaceable, and accounts for why it is wrong to bring a miserable life into existence. Although sentience puts a being within the sphere of equal consideration of interests, only a personal interest in continuing to live brings the journey model into play. This model also explains the priority that Singer attaches to interests over trivial desires and pleasures. For instance, one has an interest in food, but not in the pleasures of the palate that might distinguish eating steak from eating tofu, because nutrition is instrumental to many goals in one's life journey, whereas the desire for meat is not and is therefore trumped by the interest of animals in avoiding the miseries of factory farming."

What a fruit loop.

[Rutles4Ever]

Incredible. Peter Singer, who does not support the right to life of an eight-week old child with spina bifida, is willing to protect a f---ing ape.

WTF is wrong with this world...?

[NaughtiusMaximus]

I wonder who the first Spaniard will be to marry one?

[angelanddevil2]

Someone will legalize the human-ape marriage soon.....

[Elsie]

Yee Haw!!!!

[Antoninus]

The move in a country better known for bull-fighting would follow a string of social reforms which have converted Spain from one of Europe's most conservative nations into a liberal trailblazer bunch of pendejos grandes.

There, much better.

[philled]

I guess if they are in the "community of equals" with humans they should get to claim government benefits? Has anyone started a voter registration program for them? While this is Spain, it has implications for the USA.

Since the Democrats in the USA are looking to the prisons, minor children, and illegal aliens to join their voter rolls, how long until they start banging on the doors of the monkey house? I mean, if it comes from Europe, its got to be a good idea...

[Aquinasfan]

Spain's parliament is to declare support for rights to life and freedom for great apes on Wednesday, apparently the first time any national legislature will have recognized such rights for non-humans.

God help us!

[metmom]

*non-himans*? Can't even call them *animals* like they are? Where does it stop? No more anti-biotics to fight infection?

[AndrewC]

Spain has never recovered from that storm in 1588.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Why not the little monkeys?
