Nah, no overthinking...I've thought about it probably just as much lol. I think you are exactly right, where do you draw the line?  Are roaches more equal than ants? Is it just mammals, but then what about birds? Personally if we start living in a world where you need a bill of rights just because you "happened to not be born human"...I mean, seriously that makes it sound like its a choice to be born human or not.  If this is where things end up going...can I choose to stop being human? 

@bigun - well said.  There is a huge difference in showing respect and kindness toward animals in the world and insisting they be granted human rights.
