I haven't seen anybody post the people eating tasty animals thing, that really irritates me. Not that I like peta but it's so overused when it comes to this topic it's getting dumb. Anyway, I did a thread like this a while back and PurpleRain did two. Basically, people are appalled, don't like them and wish they would back off and relax a little. I'm sure that people will disagree but overall, that's the view. Please, tell me if I'm wrong.
PETA supports criminal activities. Not sure, but I think they have an ecoterrorist group associated with them, as well.
You should make a user group for that, I like the name.Mookie_Magnus said:
Anyway, my view of PETA is much like everyone else's, like the idea, not the way it's done.
In the words of Drew Carrey "PETA can blow me."
They're just an elitist organization trying to implant their distorted views onto everyone. They seem to place the rights of animals above the rights of their fellow human beings. Anyone that values a housefly's or a cow's "rights" above the actual rights of their own kind are assholes, plain and simple. Fuck you PETA.

Two things. One, wow, you posted that really fast! And two, see? I told youse all.axia777 said:
Not a real fan of PETA when they go over the top on animal rights, but I have to admit that they do quite a bit of good in the world. As it stands, the reason why most of the laws against animal abuse is even there is because of PETA, so I'm not against them in the way of hating what they stand for but there must be a place where you draw the line.
Ensuring people don't use dogs for fighting: Excellent reason for PETA to step in!
Making sure an entire species isn't hunted to extinction: Another good reason for PETA to step in!
Keeping people from mistreating/abusing pets: A great reason for PETA to jump in and enact a penalty for the owners.
Hunting for food: Nope! I don't see it as being something a member of PETA should be involved in unless they're hunting and having fun.
Swatting a fly: Sorry to say but B*LLSH*T!! IT'S A F*CK*NG FLY!!!
=9.9= *rolls his eyes*
My problem is, I don't like it when people just go too far with it. Yes, pets and other animals should be treated ethically, with love and respect, but if the animal is your food (or a freaking pest) then there should be limits to how far PETA should judge people. It's all the people who take it too far that get my ire, and yet I consider myself a person who tries to treat all animals respectfully, but I'm not above smashing a spider (as long as it's a Black Widow/Brown Recluse or within five feet of me) or hunting deer with a friend (as long as we use the meat for food).

People Eating Tasty Animals? Let's just say I'd invite a FRAGMENT DELETED DUE TO OFFENSIVE CONTENT before I'd invite a FRAGMENT DELETED DUE TO OFFENSIVE CONTENT for tea.
Anyway, I like animals, and I like eating animals. I think they go overboard with their policy, since animals provide necessary sustenance that you cannot get elsewhere. And they're tasty.
