PETA

[BlueMage]

PETA euthanize almost two-thirds of the animals they liberate.

Likely because they're either too far gone to save, or they simply cannot find homes for them.

It is my firm conviction that animals hold rights, perhaps dissimilar to those of humans, but in particular that they be free from needless harm.

They do have rights.

The SPCA organizations in Canada and the USA try their best to keep animals out of the hands of people who would hurt them.

Sometimes, there isn't a home for those animals, and there's very little hope for them to lead normal lives, so they're euthanised. I understand that.

BUT THEN

PETA people come along, and say "You can't hold those animals in cages! You can't kill them!" They then proceed to terrorize and attack good honest people who love animals and want to give them the best home possible. They take animals, saving them from the SPCA's needle.

Then the have a problem. Do they let the animal free into the streets? It'd surely die, or end up right back in the evil SPCA's hands. Do they take it out to the forest? It'll most likely die there too. Do we keep it as a pet? NEVER! PETA thinks the ownership of a pet is abhorrent to the rights of the animal.

So they put them in a pen, until they run out of options for them.

Then they euthanize them.

Hypocrites. Let the SPCA do their work for the good of the animals you claim to love so dearly.

Then you and I have no quarrel friend.

Because it's like shooting yourself in the foot?
The nature managed it's way for who knows how many years... so keeping species in balance and just looking what's gonna happen next is the best idea. Cause, if you destroy one specie, effect might not be that devastating... but if you destroy a few, you can completely fuck up enviroments and sooner or later fuck up yourself. You know, similarly to what happened when europeans brought animals to australia and such, but worse.

Certain species would no longer be controlled by predators, and it would cause overpopulation, and then diseases and massive damage to plants if it's herbivores.

Or if you kill them instead, predators would have less stuff to eat so they are likely to become agressive and die out, possibly spreading diseases as well. And then it keeps going like a house on fire. Of course, it's probably a lot more complex than that, i m no PHD in biology and enviromental sciences. If such exist.

Well it's not like we haven't done so in the past. How many species of bird, mammal and fish have we made extinct as a result of hunting so far?

Just count.

I find it funny people call all this stuff unnatural. Listen, if we are able to do it, it's natural. So shut the fuck up. We are just as much a part of nature as any animal. Are we not animals ourselves? Only intelligent enough to realize it? Are we really not that far from sentient A.I's? Starting to question our existence, and purpose?

Did I just unknowingly discover a conspiracy?

Yes, and it is ultimately to our detriment.

Do not use the argument that because it's happened before, it should happen again.

 

[The Wooster]

I agree with some of their principles. Animal hunting is abhorent and fur is a pointless blood trade. I think more funding should go into finding alternatives to animal testing (tissue cloning would be good) and I do believe that things like veal and fois whatever (the one where they force feed the ducks) is horendous. Oh and I'm very much against the seal culls as well (not the need for a cull, that's fine, but the methodoligy is vile)

BUUUUUT anyone who puts an animal's life before a human's is a fucking psychopath.

Yes, and it is ultimately to our detriment.

It's happened before, so it should happen again.

Best argument ever. Logic cannot hold a candle to your brilliance.

 

[Acaroid]

They say milk is unnatural and it kills people.....now tell me, what is it all mammals drink from birth?

milk always creeped me out...seriously....

Yeah we drnk it from birth but only from our mothers.... so anytime i see someone drinking milk, i cant help feel sick because it is like they still have there lips around thier mothers fat saggy breast and drinking from it :|

but that is just me...

Oh and i have to agree PETA do more bad than good.... but so does mc donalds... so i guess they are even LOL

That's what I've been saying, just not in here. Humans are just doing what humans do by nature: kill things and eat them. That's just what we do. For someone to say that by doing this we are going against nature is just absurd.

No it?s a lame chick from some lame band, I?m fairly certain it?s a dude, which is why I laugh every time he gets a lot of attention.

If you?re not male sorry you just give off that vibe

I'm sorry you have horrible taste when it comes to music. Don't worry, some people have to be wrong so that the people who are right that much better. OMG and watch the VMAs tonight to see Paramore!/plug

And seriously guys, if the only reason you're reading a word I say is because of my avatar, just stop. Take back your friend requests and go out and meet a girl that isn't on the internet to fill the void in your pathetic life. kk?

 

[Royas]

besides I am a member of the REAL PETA, the People for Eating of Tasty Animals

If God hadn't intended me to eat animals, they wouldn't be made out of meat.

I saw your avatar and instantly knew you had good taste in music. I saw Paramore in concert with my girlfriend a few months ago. They can rock pretty hard.

That is the greatest logic I have ever heard.

I fucking love you.

I hear that Camel milk has twice the nutrence with half the fat of cow milk. so why not domesticate them?? and they don't produce nearly as much methane.

What's your basis for claiming that?
Anyway, camels are domesticated. They just aren't suitable for farming.

I would like to introduce you to someone. The internet. Don't expect much.

Isn't this the same group that offered to pay off Aretha Franklin's mortgage, or something along those lines when she was having tax problems, if se agreed to join their group and stop wearing fur?

Gotta love a group that attempts to take advantage of people at their lowest ebb so they can use their celebrity to further their own cause...

 

[Xhumed]

Just had a friend who's vegetarian claim my eating meat is worse than the Holocaust. I think maybe these people need to get their priorities straight.

 

[jeremyTH]

Also we all need to remember (I am talking to you vegatarians,PETA, and other idiots)that WE ARE ANIMALS!You don't see people trying to get lions on a diet do you?

 

[Cyclomega]

I wonder if it was PETA who filled a petition asking for the extinction of Humanity in favor of the animal kingdom...

Watch the South Park episode Douche & Turd, PETA gets shot by Puff Daddy's crew for throwing a bucket of blood on P.Diddy's snow-white fur coat. Some moderate lulz to be had on the episode if you forget the blatant tasteless vulgarity of the main plot (and some lack of inspiration).

Anyway, they're a bunch of sickos who could as well be anarcho-skinheads if they were not some post hippies thinking animals are better than humans...

I wonder of they would try to kill my vet because, when he gave a microdose of anti-inflammatory to my 2-month-old kitten, who hurt her leg in a door, she whined because it stung and he pulled the skin from the back of her neck to insert the micro syringe (and she always whines when you hold her by the skin of her neck)...

Thinking of it, I am probably worse than Hitler and Xenu for not giving my cats Royal Canin kibbles instead of Friskies (easy reason : they loved Friskies until I bought some RC at the vet, but it's more than 30 minutes from my place), and they whine, to which I reply "Either that, or you die of starvation.", which they seem to understand...
Well in fact I should let mice and rats invade my flat, so that they can freely hunt, and replace all the floor tiles with grass and dirt, for their freedon, especially in a rented place...

They are exactly why people tend to believe that dysgenics are a reality also in humans...
I mean it, PETA are proof that humanity is on a path of degenerescence...

You don't see people trying to get lions on a diet do you?

Leela: "Animals eat other animals. It's nature."
Free Waterfall Junior: "No it isn't. We taught a lion to eat tofu."
Lion: *cough* *pause* *cough*
