So by the view that we are superior to cows the aliens would be just in doing their experiments on us by your argument correct? As for the criminal record your darn right I do. People serving life sentences with no chance at parole might as well do something to contribute to society now that they have taken something from it and are just sucking up tax payers money. They are monsters, not people.

No, by my argument, I've clearly drawn the line on what is okay to kill and what isn't.
To me things I can eat and can't talk back are okay to kill.
People aren't. So to say it's wrong for aliens to come kill me isn't contradictory to what I've said as it fits nicely into the realm of:
Killing cows = okay
Killing People = not okay
I've stated my position, and I'm sticking to it. Why I draw that line. Is irrelevant.
Why you CLAIM all live is equal isn't the bone of contention, and so is also not relevant.
What I'm contending is that even though you Claim all life is EQUAL, you have clearly given several contrdictions that show you do not think that.
Joe construction worker vs Rats
My belifes it's an easy choice as the value of Joe construction worker is always higher than rats.
You claim 1 rat = 1 Joe
Therefore shouldn't it be true that
100 rats > 1 Joe?
Yet you chose Joe to live. (well you didn't let joe live, but you let your friend live, so it's still valid, and may still be valid for joe if you answer the second part. How many rats in the cage untill you let Joe live?)
My statements have been completely compaitble with my stated belifes that people are superior to animals and are above the threshold of being okay to kill be it by people or aliens.
you've clrealy contradicted your statement that all beings are equal.
