RE: Animal Testing (Controversial Topics #1)
i m not 100 % against animal testing but i m also not 100% supporting animal testing. Without animal testing a proper drug will never be developed . Its all about trial and error . But i do hope theres another alternative . Perhaps try it on inmates ? ( rape / murder offenses ) that i will support a 100%
All ethical arguments aside, testing it on prisoners would actually be really bad for scientific reasons. All these people have pre-existing conditions and a huge genetic variety. You'd need a lot, A LOT of them to get statistically relevant results.
You'd soon run out of murderers and rapists.
And who's next? Drug dealers? Traffic violators?
I understand where you're coming from but I think we need to look for other ways to get rid of animal testing once and for all
