A few years ago I read a news story about them trying to make it so that legally you don't own your pet, you are its guardian.

Technically, parents don't "own" their children, but it doesn't seem to be a deterrent from abusing them if they are that type of person. I don't get the point...

Side note: what was this thread about before we hijacked it with PETA discussion? I don't even remember.

That legally, animals would have an equal standing with humans. PhiGam, I remember that story too.
