| Message | I agree that testing on animals should be used for medical purposes, but it cannot be justified for cosmetic purposes. |
| Date | 13:17:49, April 27, 2005 CET | From | To | Debating the Animal Rights Act |
| Message | Animals have no rights at all, and should have none. If you take the first step it easy to take a second. Animals exists to become sausages. They should really not be considered "animals" but rather "pre-sausages" |

| Message | To make a long story short, animals have no rights. Full stop. |
| Date | 15:58:12, April 27, 2005 CET | From | Social Democrat Party | To | Debating the Animal Rights Act |
| Message | It is not necessary to use animals for testing cosmetics. I value humans a thousand times more than animals, which is why I agree with testing on animals for medical purposes, but for testing beauty products and the like it is not necessary. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
