Position altered

Fellow travellers, of course you are well aware of my attitude to immigration. I am very much for the increased intake of non-animal creatures -- particularly from the Middle East. However, I have recently become aware of a case that forces me to reconsider this position.

 

I speak, of course, of the threat posed by a certain breed of feline. Due to their potential to disrupt delicate Australian ecosystems, it is imperative that none of these hybrid "supercats" (and what an appallingly elitist term that is!) should be let into the country.

 

Certainly, they are non-human persons with rights. And I feel for them, I really do! But it is my considered opinion that the rights of local citizens take precedence in this case. 

 

If you think I am being speciesist, so be it.
