Lucky rats? Most people have to pay to get their hands on that stuff! Nah, seriously I think testing on animals is a necessary evil for the furthering of medicine, science, and psychology. On the other hand I could never support the testing on animals for purely cosmetic purposes.

I hope that answers your question, though I haven't been very thorough.

I think they should test the drugs on themselves or on human volunteers or employees. Testing cosmetics on animals should be criminalized IMO.

IMO, animal testing should be used only for medical purposes and even then research into alternatives should still be ongoing.
