Aren't they supposed to be anti-pets? Guess they even contradict themselves...

PETA is probably THE most moronic group on the face of this Earth. Practically nothing they do makes sense for their movement.

Heh. I guess they stocked up on enough puppy body bags for their own kill shelters they decided to share.

It's absolute insanity to me that this organization out of all of them out there cannot be arsed to promote no-kill. What hypocritical assholes.

You are absolutley right. This PETA person should get mental help. It's almost as if he were a group of individuals with unique thoughts and ideas on how to go about their goals.

I remember a story once, where there was a district leader who was confronted about her hypocrisy. Her hypocrisy? She used insulin. Insulin is produced from pigs. When confronted with this she said that it was her duty to stay healthy and alive so that she could continue the fight for the rights of animals.

-edit-
Found the quote.....

"PETA’s Mary Beth Sweetland should also answer for her own personal hypocrisy. Like more than ten million Americans, she’s diabetic. Sweetland injects herself daily with insulin that was tested on animals; she has conceded that her medicine “still contains some animal products -- and I have no qualms about it…. I don’t see myself as a hypocrite. I need my life to fight for the rights of animals.”

I've dealt with them on a professional basis and they are truly a nutty organization. Let me correct that. Their organization is full of nuts.

PETA never was known for its intelligence...

Sure wish I could get my $50 back from 'em.**









** = Donated years ago when I was young and stupid and didn't know about them. Trust me, I felt like a heel when I learned about their assholery.

They do give a bad name to all us non-hypocritical animal lovers.
I know that my beliefs are far too extreme for the massive majority of people in the world. But damn it, I am consistent about it.

I refuse to eat mammals on pain of death, but my girlfriend enjoys murderous meat. I don't judge her for it. I would prefer that she didn't, but she prefers that I clean up the apartment.
Everyone is flawed. To get all bent out of shape over others doing or thinking something that you "know" to be wrong just leads to extremism and insanity.

Though if I witnessed anybody abusing one of my kitties, all sense of live and let live and psuedo-pacifism gets thrown out the door. They would have 260 pounds of terror on their face in a fraction of a second. In a fraction of a second later they would have my girlfriend on them.

AKC = KKK for PETA

PETA likens the AKC to the KKK

2 PETA members dresses up as KKK members complete with white sheets & hoods and said because the AKC is dealing with only purebred dogs, they are trying to come up with a "master race" for pets.

Oh, for the love of---GAH! My brain just vapor-locked upon seeing that. "Uncomfortable comparison"? More like "zero comparison". Master race is one single gene pool. Dog breeds by definition have way more than one gene pool.

They (PETA) need to be banned. Part of me figured they were going to try something this year.

[Lace Neil Singer]

They already have; they say now we should call fish "sea kittens". -.-

[Dreamstalker]

That's where that came from?! Great googly moogly...what next? Wait, scratch that, I do not want to know.

"Sea kittens"? "Sea kittens"!? WTF? I think the people of PETA have finally lost their collective minds. I'm still eating tuna ... tuna is good whether it's a fish or a kitten. Harumph. And people wonder why I don't support PETA.

Believe it or not I don't want PETA banned they're way too good at shooting themselves in the foot and then stuff said foot up their ass closely followed by their mouth. They're idiots and the sooner the great unwashed masses see this and stop supporting them the better. My oldest daughter is about to graduate from vet school in the spring. One of her professors tried to may a membership in PETA a mandatory part of the cirriculam (sp). When some complaining to the right folks took place that requirment vanished. The complainer threatened to withhold a significant yearly contribution to the Ag/Vet school.

Their point is that people don't eat animals that cross a certain cute threshold, and that fish have many things in common with the cute animals.

Like... ?

In any case, I find baby lambs cute; but I still eat them.
