I have, java.

You appear, on more than one occasion, to have intimated that I am unworthy of owning a dog simply by virtue of my statement of fact that animals do not have rights.

I am willing to discuss it further but that may not be possible as I cannot tell if you agree or disagree with that statement of fact.

One of the more difficult things I've ever had to do in my life was to put down a dog for reasons completely relavent to this discussion. If it was the wrong thing to do, which you appear to believe, I'd like to hear your argument.

Otherwise, the best I can hope for is a retraction of your assessment of my capacity for the responsibility inherent in the ownership of a dog.
