PETA

“PETA used to amuse me.
They are starting to tick me off.”

“Starting to? They're a bunch of nitwits!”

“Maple's "Mean People Suck" could be attached to these fools.”

“they're sick”

“PETA

People
Eating
Tasty
Animals”

“Pretty poor judgment, to put it mildly. Juxtapositioning an image of the holocaust with animals is almost about as trivializing as some people’s tendency to attach the –nazi label to any stance they disagree with.”

“PETA is stupid. Those guys really tick me off. They oppose the way animals are raised in mass for food consumption, yet they also oppose hunting where an animal is allowed to live freely in the wild before it is eaten?!?! Bunch of morons.”

“You're still allowed to eat roadkill, though.

Also, honey and silk are off-limits.

Honey- you steal the bee's food.
Silk - you murder the silkworm.

Next they'll be against antibiotic ointment because it kills bacteria.”

“juxtapositioning juxtaposing

I just had to edit my post before lizs read it. You know how she gets.”

“The one that set me off was urging college kids to drink beer instead of milk, as though we don't have enough problems with college kids drinking themselves to death already.”

“PETA=

Petulent
Eviscerated
Truculent
A$$holes”

“Wow! Equating the value of a chicken to that of a Jew, Gypsy, Homosexual etc. Adolf would have loved these guys especially since he was a vegetarian!”

“they go for shock tactics to get attention to their cause - whatever the rights and wrongs of the issues, it works”

“The ends do not justify the means, ynami.

This particular group has also posted a bilboard of the mayor of new york after he got prostate cancer. The picture showed him with a milk moustache. The caption read: "Got cancer?"

They were trying to draw attention to milk's unhealthy side. In the meantime, they belittled a man for cancer.

There really should be better ways.”

“I know - I don't agree with its tactics at all - but Peta is effective at getting the message out”

“What message? That they're a bunch of idiots?”

“Yeah, they are a bunch of idiots, but that bunch of idiots has just had us all read their comments in the news story.”

“But most of us didn't get the message they wanted to get across.”

“damn nazzi sha bor!”

“i have no trouble drinking beer instead of milk

except for that dumb underage drinking law”

“Yep, they need to put rubber nipples on beer bottles first, eh?”

“PETA's tactics are PR stunts, and they continue to cross the line in a really hurtful way. I only hope that eventually they'll turn enough people off and see their donation dollars shrink.

I'm going to dedicate my next boar hunt to those bastards.”

“soooooooooo-EEEEEEEEEEEE!!!”

“i doubt that they will see their donations shrink because, apparently, there are plenty of people who public decry what they are doing, but privately send them a check to keep doing it. Of course, I could be wrong, there's always the posibility that they are operating a white slave trade under the table to fund their operations.”

“LOL!”

“are y'all talkin' about bread? LOL LOL LOL”

“Peta gets a lot of funding from other front organisations....I forget the names but after an ivestigation of money disbursement for a major charity drive it turned out that peta ultimatly received money from 4 other charities that were represented. They werent the only ones that pulled that scam and since the paperwork was actually all legal there wasnt anything that could be done to stop it. NAMBLA was another offender. The worse part was each participant was garanteed a percentage of the take and so no matter who you chose, your money ended up with these people. It pays to take a very close look at what your chosen charity does with its money and what it really advocates.

I used to find peta somewhat amusing but these people think that its ok to kill humans to protect animals and so forth.”

“Yes Jello Fog...we're talking about bagels.

It's really sad, alot of legitimate charities are tarred because alot of "bad" charities scam so many people. The expenses of those organizations take up all the donations, sometimes up to 98% or more!!! The organizers/suits have all this huge parties, yachts, expensive trips, limos etc...just sick.”

“dumb, insensitive campaign bent on shock value

but they've succeeded

because we're talking about it”

“but we aren't talking about saving animals. we are talking about how pathethic PETA is.”

“And it makes me want to eat more meat.”

“stuffing some cooked strays into PETA bread and adding onions, bell peppers, lettuce and cheese is pretty tasty”

“There was an article in this mornings paper about the impact it would have if hunting were abolished by animal rights. 500,000 jobs would be lost along with many other negative things. One thing that would really be bad for wildlife is that the State Gamelands system was developed for wildlife habitat and would be questionable where the money would come from to support it and buy new land for wildlife. I don't hunt, but I'd hate to see the gamelands that I fish, hike and mountainbike be sold off or developed and that land lost as wildlife habitat. It would be counterproductive for the animals because it's hunters dollars that pay for the land.”

“Interesting point, richb. Anti-hunters just don't see the big picture a lot of the time, or refuse to look at it.”

“Thanks for thinking of me, Violin, sweetie!!!

Oh yeah, I forgot.... The Holocaust saw the killing of people so we could eat them, as opposed to just letting us eat the people that run wild.

ummmmmm.... not quite a parallel here. DOH!”

“The town of Hamburg, NY is being bombarded by the People Eating Tasty Animals group to change it's name.

I think someone has TOO much time on their hands.”

“i just ate a cow.....man that was one tasty animal, lemme tellya!”

“are you kiddin me?!?! thats ridiculous. somebody tell those guys that they're idiots and not to waste everybodys time with stupid proposals like that. i do enjoy the laughs they provide though :)”

“liberals.....heh heh”

“He said that was an UDDERLY rediculous idea!! True Story!”

“the more stupid PETA stories i hear, the more meat i want to eat”

“yup stream, it's true. we like ole huckabee. he's not perfect but he's pretty cool.”

“I just finished eating some yummy glazed little donuts with a big glass of MOOOO juice!”

“What Miss Opie said.

They get a lot of exposure out of their stunts, but I think it's bad PR and overall it is counterproductive.

"If God didn't want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat" - Anonymous”

“PETA has driven itself to the point of such extremities that no one even takes anything they say or do seriously. They are a parody of themselves.”

“Humans did not climb to the top of the food chain to become vegetarians.”

“In honor of PETA, I went and had some good cow today. Mmmm, good cow....”

“MMMMmmmmmmmeat!”

“Those PETA clowns are rather inflexible(conservative) the way they hold un-changingly to their wacked-out "philosophy".”

“I like thier Bread with the pocket.”
