'People care more about animals than they do about fellow men'

Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan’s gal pal Samantha Ronson is really sad about California’s Proposition 8, which bans same-sex marriages – and expressed shock that people chose to protect animals rather than humans.

Ronson, who is reportedly dating Lohan, was frightened to see that voters approved an animal-rights initiative but discarded measures for gay marriage and adoption.

"I guess people care more about farm animals than they do their fellow man, that's really sad to me,” ‘People’ magazine quoted her, as saying on her MySpace page.

“Yes, I am glad that the chickens will have more room and better conditions as they wait to die, but I just think it's frightening that people show more compassion for tomorrow's dinner than for the chef,” she said.

Ronson’s outrage comes after California voters approved intention of freeing chickens from small cages, but rejected legalizing gay marriage in Florida and California and adoption for gay parents in Arkansas.

“Yup, Miss Piggy and Chicken Little may rest easy, but gay people in Florida and California can no longer get married and gay couples in Arkansas can't adopt children," Ronson stated.

"G-d forbids a loving family (regardless of sexual orientation) give a needy child a home!" she added.

I disagree by Stephanie on 2008-12-18 08:58:48.633587+05:30 What is Samantha's problem? I don't think that animals are being treated better than humans at all. At least gay people are not being locked up in cramped conditions waiting to be slaughtered. Animal abuse on factory farms is much more serious than the rights of gay people. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for gay marriages but gay couples can live with each other for the rest of their lives if they choose anyway. Unfortunately, animals don't have that kind of freedom. As for gay couples adopting children, with that I totally disagree because the child is affected more than anyone. The child could be a victim of bullying when he/she is older.
