PETA strikes again

[Doug]

In another attempt to prove to the world how insane/media attention seeking they are, PETA made a request to the 'Pet Shop boys' (an older UK band who I think have reformed and back on tour) to rename themselves the 'Rescue Centre boys'.

HAHAHA!
The Rescue Centre Boys?
Yeah, that's a fantastic alternative.

Why do people even give PETA this type of publicity? It only keeps them noticed.
And they don't need/deserve to be noticed.

Oh well, they're just father4justice but with animals...

And a lack of amusing costumes.

 

[Anachronism]

I really, really hate PETA. It's just not possible to take them seriously on any of their views.

Ever since the "sea kittens" fiasco I can't help feeling that they're beneath contempt.

And a lack of amusing costumes.

Don't give them ideas!

 

[SecretTacoNinja]

WHAAAAAT?

Just... no comment...

 

[Nmil-ek]

How about the meat is murder crew?

 

[traceur_]

you have got to fucking kidding me! what the hell is wrong with PETA?! Do they not realise they are destroying the credibility and reputation of all animal rights groups? they are fucking retarded, changing the name of something won't change anything, they tried to get fish renamed as "sea kittens" and all that got them was the loss of what little respect the public had for them. Where are the ninja assassin squads?!?!?!?!

How did these people get an organisation together? Surely there are laws prohibiting this number of idiots to be in one place?

 

[slackbheep]

I'm all for animal rights, but PETA is a joke. I don't agree with everything they've been up to, but atleast Sea Shepard is more than a PR campaign gone wild.

 

[Tech Team FTW!]

Ahh PETA, your name will be forever synonimous with FAIL.

Mmm that steak I ate for dinner was great.

 

[Falien]

We sure this isn't a (temporally-challenged) April Fool's?

If it is true (shudder), I submit the following:

Monkey Mafia (AKA Jon Carter) to be renamed 'Simian Samaritans'.
Snoop Dogg to be renamed 'Cute Pupp'.
Gorillaz to be renamed 'Big Friendly Huggable Guyz'.
Teddybears to be renamed 'Little Friendly Huggable Guys'.

Continuing the theme to human sensibilities:

Fatboy Slim to be renamed 'Gravitationally-challenged Young Man Slim".
Blondie to be renamed 'Not A Brunette'.
Sex Pistols to be renamed 'Love Arrows'.
Public Enemy to be renamed 'We Come In Peace'.

...etc.

If you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the pollution!

Actually.

Intelligent people in multiple masses = Idiots.

Idiots in multiple masses = Natural overload.

 

[GnomeThief]

First the sea kittens, then the Call of Duty dog killing, and now this. Meanwhile there are people out there who are actually busting their butts to help animals instead of freaking out over the names of bands or a few virtual dogs.

 

[Slift]

PETA is just sad. Really, really sad. That being said...

I agree totally with this. There has to be a law SOMEWHERE that prohibits single braincells per person distribution.

Sea kittens? God, I mean... I didn't have respect for them before... But that day PETA sank for 'Annoying retarded activists' to just 'Retarded Activists' I lol'd HARD at sea kittens.

Nothing to say for land kittens... Land kittens are fucking adorable.

*faceplam* And this is coming from someone who's an off again, on again pescatarian.

What? Ninjas? No, ninjas are way too quick, they need to suffer...

That, and they wanted to use human breat milk to make ice cream to "relieve dairy cows of their stressful lives." It was mostly big in Northwest America.

PETA is proof we need natural selection/survival of the fitest/Serial Killers.
