  1. I see PETA are being sane and rational again. I'm not even going to bother to link to their latest idiocy.

    2. @ceruleanspark PETA is one of these strange groups. On the one side, you're happy they exist because they make sure people learn that there being a problem and can sometimes come up with good information, on the other side you just can't stop feeling embarrassed for their stupidity and just plain offended for every dumb thing they do in the name of "animal safety" and they slow everything down. I just wish they'd show their good side where they promote stuff without being complete jerks more often (like on their website (not blog), they look like pretty decent people) instead of constantly showing their "HEY YOU EAT ANIMALS YOU MURDERER WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF I WOULD KILL AND EAT YOUR FAMILY HE? WHAT WOULD YOU DO THEN?" side.

      2. @omni And no, I have no clue what happened, but I'm staying far away from PETA as they just plain disgust me most of the time.

        1. @toksyuryel Would you mind me not wanting to click that link? I really can't use it right now, even less than I could use it normally.

          1. @omni It's just a response to your assertion that they have a good side. You don't have to click it.

      4. @omni The ASPCA is trying to convey the same message in a much less insane way, just support them. (I'm pretty sure they're actually trying to avoid being connected to PETA and all the associated crazy, actually).

        1. @eaglehooves I'll take a look at them and perhaps consider it, thanks for that.

          1. @omni I dunno of they've got an international branch or not...

      5. @omni Actually, I'm not particularly glad that they exist. Not only do they promote and advocate intimidation and violence, massively undermining every single cause they try to promote, they actively euthanise 85% of the animals they rescue.

        1. @ceruleanspark Over 95% last year. Most within 24 hours.

        2. @ceruleanspark I hate them more than I like them as well, but I'm going to stop discussing about them, if you don't mind.
