I agree. I think human rights have to be universal or they are meaningless.

With my earlier question (about the "etc") I was trying to ask - who decides which crimes are bad enough for you to forfeit your human rights in this way? First LCoU said murderers and paedophiles, then added rapists... what's a bad enough crime?

EDIT: Also, I think that the more opposed you are to animal testing, the more it makes sense to oppose human testing without consent. They are essentially the same thing (if you oppose animal testing because it is cruel to creatures who don't get a choice).
