A few years ago, I took my then 4 year old daughter to the Ringling Brothers Circus in Everett. Standing out front to greet every man, woman and child were PETA protesters with signs that contained very graphic photos of what they claimed were animal abuses by Ringling. Now it is never ok to hurt or torture an animal (and I'm not sure if Ringling has or does), but do two wrongs make a right? Is it OK for PETA to ruin a 4 year old's first circus? Or anyone's circus?
Now the Seattle Times has an article saying that the brains behind PETA have organized a protest in Seattle of all fish-eating places, to tell people not to catch - or eat fish. They must have been ingesting way too much of something ...
Apparently, according to King5.com and Reuters, PETA is planning to launch a porn site in the name of animal rights. Adult, XXX Movies mixed in with PETA's propaganda photos - sounds like they are looking in the right place. Most of the other people out there that are crazed and delirious enough to support PETA's extreme actions without regard to the general public, are probably watching snuff films anyway.
What's YOUR take?
Totally agree with you. It is true that people can protest about animal abuse, but making them vegetarians and treating them like a REAL human is stupid.
ReplyDeleteI liked the idea how PETA started protesting against meat factories on the excessive abuse on animals like beating them etc. But at some point they went just way too far.
They need to know that many people still eat meat and will never stop eating meat LIKE ME.
Meat is good. PETA needs to support meat eating people, and also need to focus more on the right treatment of animals before they are killed for meat. So us humans wont catch the disease from animals that were sick in the meat process.
