I'm 100% against it. To test on conscious creatures who can suffer without their consent is immoral. I wouldn't experiment on humans or animals against their will.
Thats a reasonable stance. But whenever I hear this I just tell people to ensure they are morally consistent and not hypocrites. Vegetarians refuse to eat meat, the product of a process they feel is morally wrong. Anti-animal research people should do the exact same, and refuse medications or treatments which are the result of animal experimentation. This will mean pretty much all modern medicines are off the table, and one should not even see doctors, especially surgeons, as they also used animals as part of their training. If animal experimentation is wrong, you wouldn't want to benefit from this morally reprehensible activity would you?
