Swiss lawyers are elaborating the doctrine of vegetable rights. " A few years ago the Swiss added to their national constitution a provision requiring "account to be taken of the dignity of creation when handling animals, plants and other organisms." No one knew exactly what it meant, so they asked the Swiss Federal Ethics Committee on Non-Human Biotechnology to figure it out."Coming soon - mineral rights.

Liberate the legumes..
What about plankton rights, or animal product (swiss cheese) rights?
