I think this is a silly premise for a thread, since there is no definition of what the OP means by the term "rights." For the record, I'm a vegan, and have been for fifteen years now, so I might be considered to support animal "rights." However, the term is used so vaguely and loosely as to be meaningless, so I can't really answer the question, in either the affirmative or negative.
Same here, I don't want to say yes or no. But I do love animals and want them treated nicely. I haven't been eating meat for several months now (just some fish on occasion) so I guess I'm on the path to being a vegetarian.
This is a book I really liked about animal rights/welfare
