No, actually, PETA is a bunch of f*cking media whore RETARDS.

The ONLY reason they do this sh*t is for the publicity. They're a foul, filthy bunch of brain-damaged hypocrites.

My personal favorite PETA story: they were picketing Bloomingdales at a local mall because Bloomingdales sells fur coats. However, their picket line was a half-mile away at the opposite end of the mall....in front of Macys.

They are a joke, a laughingstock that for some inexplicable reason people take seriously. I loathe them.

I'm a pacifist vegan, and I wish he hadn't killed the fly as well. But, I can't help, but feel slightly disgusted by PETA. The moment he did it my mother and I looked at each other and said. . . "Paging PETA!! 5. . .4 . .3. . 2. . .1".

But, yeah. It's not the opinion that's the problem here. It's PETA. They give people like my self a bad name. Now I know how intelligent republicans feel when watching Bill-O and reading Ann Coulter.


I have NEVER met Cheyenne Jackson. I have never hung out with him in his dressing room, he did not tweet me, he never bought me a beverage, and he mostly certainly didn't tickle me. . .that is all.

See, that's another thing about them that makes me crazy. Their lunacy is so pervasive that people respond that way almost automatically. Only, they respond with scorn and derision, which is hardly what they want, but they have never learned to moderate their message. I did the same thing - I rolled my eyes and thought "Oh god, just watch - PETA will be on that like white on rice".

It was a great moment, and PETA had to go and ruin it. I LOVED the look on Obama's face as he took aim as if the fly were the president of Iran. Or Putin. Or Kim Jong-il. Now THAT was pure Commander-In-Chief!

I'll never forget the first time I went to New York City. There was a huge billboard for Peta Kills Animals and right underneath of it was a Phantom billboard saying, "Remember your first time?"

The only good thing about PETA is their ads with naked people.

Does anybody remember the "Your Daddy Kills Animals" campaign from a few years ago. It was the most ridiculous bullsh*t I've ever seen. Yes, that's a great idea PETA, make your target demographic children and poison their minds against their parents. Scare them. Great idea.

So I suppose if a house gets infested with termites, the PETA solution is just let it crumble around you until you have to move?

THERE WAS AN OLD LADY

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.
I don't know why she swallowed a fly.
I guess she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled insider her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
I don't know why she swallowed a fly.
I guess she'll die.

There was an old lady who swallowed a bird.
How absurd! To swallow a bird!
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled insider her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly.
I don't know why she swallowed a fly.
I guess she'll die.

(Continue verses)
Cat . . . Imagine that! She swallowed a cat.
Dog . . . What a hog! She swallowed a dog.
Goat . . . She opened her throat and in walked a goat.
Cow . . . I don't know how she swallowed that cow.

There was an old lady, she swallowed a horse.
She died of course!

Addy, that song scared me as a child!

As a joemygod commenter pointed out, perhaps we should start calling them Dumpster kittens?

PETA loves to make a big deal out of something pretty minor and then shout to the media about all the injustice. They remind me of someone, let's see.... Sarah Palin!

PETA makes me want to make a fur coat out of my dog, just to annoy them.

When I was younger, showing chickens at the 4-H fair, PETA showed up and set free all of the caged animals they could get their hands on...domesticated goats and pigs, mostly. All of the animals ran into the woods, and it took forever to get them back. How do they think this is ethical...DOMESTIC animals aren't all that great at surviving in the woods. Geez.
