I raised two children without ever taking them near a circus, and they turned out quite joyful. We preferred kites and bikes to staged animal cruelty. Really, do you not care at all about the elephant's experience? No other creature's fear and pain matters at all to you?

They torture baby elephants. Strike them, goad them, teach them fear. And you're all just into that, apparently.

Wow. I find that disgusting. IMHO. And what are you doing posting in this group again?
