Thats rediculous. I can't begin to describe how much peta bothers me. I saw the main head lady from peta talk on national television about how she wanted people to eat her after she died. This was about 10 minutes after saying she thinks everyone should be a vegetarian. If thats not f****d up, I dunno what is.

You're a bit late with this - there has been a thread about this since the 9th:

I like fish =(

And I like how they taste =D

I'd order a sea kitten sandwich in a heartbeat...it's like Coca Cola with Cherry...you can change the name, but it still tastes the same (...doesn't it?)

I like Stephen Colbert's reaction. He basically said that he's going to start eating "land fish" aka actual kittens.

Is this person discussin carteligenous fish and bony fish under one heading? That's confusing. I always assumed that "fish" was shorthand for "bony fish"?

As a vegan, let me just say that PETA is annoying. They're practically a corporation at this point, and make us look bad. I don't like the way they generate controversy. It merely polarizes people on the issue and gives vegans a bad name.

I know a guy who's real into this PETA business. I wasn't adverse at first to what it was but it started progressing to the same stuff these articles did. I almost thought he was kidding me.

I don't understand why it degressed into this kind of crap. It sounds like it's doing them more worse than harm. Wouldn't surprise me if this vegan diet had something to do with it.... :?

As a non-vegan who loves my meat, I agree. These idiots give the movement they're trying to represent a bad name. They're like the Kent Hovind of animal rights.
