I don't trust anyone who doesn't love a good chunk of cow once in a while.

They leave the "ethical" part behind all the time and sabotage any potential new (sane) members with this offensive nonsense. Recall a few years back when they passed out graphic pamphlets of minks being slaughtered to children at some opera?

They care about ethical treatments for animals, not humans. Note the spoof Onion article that mentioned PETA commandos killing 15 researchers at some biological lab to rescue one rabbit.

Their newest trick: Citing a twelve-year-old study -- one that's been debunked repeatedly since then and was just bad science to begin with -- that cites a link between cow's milk and autism. The billboards have since been taken down, but it's the principle of the thing.

soon as you label Peta as a terrorist organization, it'll be All Over or PETA joins the ranks of IRA or other illustrious organizations...

IRA? What do you have against a United Ireland. Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
The fact that not everyone in Ireland seems to want a united Ireland?
You know why I don't like the PETA type of veggie people? They seem to assume humans are less important than animals or have less of a prerogative to do what we want than animals do, just because we're better at manifesting that prerogative. That's illogical. If monkeys were better at killing other species than we were, would it still be wrong? (And I don't buy the "well they don't have moral capacity" argument either, because we invented morals, so we can choose what's moral and what isn't [and we always have done]. And of course animals don't have the capacity to act in a moral fashion if we invented morals and we're more intelligent than animals. They can't understand most things we invented...)

you sure animals Don't have morals?
i mean, when you *pulls some D&D out of his ass* look at things in terms of Good and Evil in light of the concept of 'survivial of the fitess', you don't see animals picking and choosing thier kills (unless they sence something fucked up about the prey -HEY! He has AIDS! go for the little fucker OVER there! he's clean!- ) they just kill. clearly in the animal kingdom Lawful, Neutral and Chaotic Evil rules

Um...yeah. Amorality. Not immorality. It means you don't think of things in term of 'right and wrong' at all. And animals obviously don't, as you just said - they just kill.

Kinda like me.

And PETA's new 'mascot'.
Posted by Ritten (Member # 417) on :
PETA's problem is that they are not persecuted and run off the planet in the name of higher thinking beings. Suits and ships not required.
Public flogging for all PETA members should be a law on the records too. Let us cow killing people vent a little, which, when considering the divorce rate for 'traditional' marriages could help. It could also lower domestic violence.
