Well of course the evil in the Avatar universe is the RDA so..
Let's just hope they don't win. If it is your evil, then go right ahead.

Number 4 makes me laugh. It does make a good set of points actually...though it fails to mention the only reason the Avatar's still work is because they are in close range. I bet they would not have worked if Jake and Co. Had been further away. I also think adding #2 to Avatar would have solved SO many problems. Really we are going to poor billions into this project and not put a tracker on it! Sense that makes none!

Does anyone know of any animal fighting going on in their area?
We're looking at it for our Popular Culture class.
I think there's still rooster and dog fighting here..though underground.

OMG! That is so totally barbaric and inhumane. Curses on you! My boyfriend had his beloved dog stolen by a dog-fighting ring; they use people's pets as bait.

Huh?
I don't support animal fighting in any way, Did I say that I did?. I'm actually a very strong supporter of animal rights and welfare. We're studying animal fighting and other old English cultural pastimes in our popular culture course in university. We know that even in a western society where we know it is wrong, it still goes on. My lecturer, colleagues and I are researching into the numbers of illegal rings and the locations so that we can try to put an end to most of them.
I feel sorry for your boyfriend's dog, though next time please read what I post before posting damaging insults at me. Otherwise I'll have to report you.

I have a sad animal story of my own. Before I was born my parent's pet cats were taken one day and never seen again. When my parents asked around they heard that there was a gang that stole stray animals and pets and used them for shark bait.

I read your post and you made no reference to why your class was searching for animal fights. Entertainment? I live in the southern US where animal fights are illegal and prevelent; they are a source of untold shame on our society. Your class may be venturing into dangerous territory because these are not nice people who you will encounter. The best way to eradicate this atrocity is to support the many animal rights organizations who work tirelessly toward that goal. I don't appreciate being threatened..

i don't think she said she was encountering the people at all, i believe she said she was researching it.



why? is she and her class not aloud to help the animal care people? if they were to hand in their research to the animal rights organization, is this not supporting them? it's kind of like working as an undercover cop, researching to help them out. researching the fighting is helping the animal cares.
Thanks Andi
I should of said something about why our class was looking for it before but I thought that naturally people would assume that classes would research things. Gaziya: What kind of sick, twisted classes in a western country such as Australia would look at animal fighting as entertainment?
Sorry if you think that I would threaten you Ghaziya but I'm getting really tired of people going crazy and putting me down for the simplest of things, especially without any evidence of wrongdoing but of course people assume the worst and that's all that matters right?..I really don't deserve getting put down for saying something, no one one does.

Hehe I sure hope so. I'd love to hang out with some apes. Orangutangs are pretty cool as well.
