Here is a curly one for animal rights activists:  A business owner refused to interview a Nigerian job seeker on the grounds that his dog didn't like him because he was black.

When the local labour office accused  the businessman of racism, he told a newspaper, "The dog is racist.  Not me."

Sounds like the ultimate attempt at passing the buck.  But what if he was being genuine, and the dog is a bigot?  If a dog is a sentient, moral being, deserving of rights, he has a right to a (flawed) opinion just as humans do, doesn't he?  And isn't it speciesist to ignore that right?

So, who was discriminated against the most?  The black guy for being denied a chance at the gig, or the dog for not having his "voice heard"?
