The Socratic method involves asking questions to lead on discussion and participation. You're trying to discourage discussion by putting contributors on the defensive with an ad hominem disguised as a (loaded) question.
So, in fact, you're doing neither.
Nobody is forcing you to be in this conversation, or be on the defensive.
If you can't answer questions that make you uncomfortable to answer, that's something you should reflect on.
I am willing to answer any questions you may have of me.
You haven't answered any questions though. How many pets taken and euthanized the same day would be acceptable to you? How many animals that are adoptable, not ill, don't have behavioral problems, and aren't elderly should they be allowed to euthanize? Should they have to retract their ad campaign that ran for years claiming a link between autism and milk or should they be able to quietly redirect it and not confront it because the "science" was almost as laughable as the link between vaccines and autism?
You'll willingly answer, so I am eagerly awaiting answers rather than redirecting or trying to be the Glen Beck of PETA by JAQing off (I'm just asking questions!).
How many healthy pets do they actually euthanize?
Is this something they are regularly doing, or is there one or two cases?
Ah, so you're not willing to answer questions. I don't engage with lying pieces of shit. If you had, you could have changed hearts and minds. Instead you're as worthless as PETA.
Have I told a lie?
quit JAQing off bro
So I haven't told a lie in this conversation?
