What are your thoughts on the PETA?
A vegan group who take pokemon WAAAAYYYYY to seriously, oh yeah and many other nintendo games.
Anyways PETA kill dogs just to show how "cruel" it is.
But Dogs are animals made for families (where I am from) rather than food, so of course it cruel to kill a dog for nothing.
The stupid thing is, they protested on KFC and made a video on how the chicks and chickens are being killed, and where did they get that footage from?
Anyways as I said, what are your thoughts?

my thoughts on the matter:



PETA. People eating tasty animals. You wouldn't be very healthy without meat. Meat is nourishment, meat is everything. But veggies are also good.



As far as hunting pigs, cows, Etc, I think that PETA is a nuthouse. full of nuts. a whole can of nuts.



And also, Dogs ARE eaten in some places.. but that has nothing to do with the USA.



Honestly, St. Bernard stew sounds kinda tasty.

EDIT: misspelled 'my'

I think of PETA as Perverts Exploitation of T&A.  If you have to look up T&A, don't worry about it.  PETA is a good idea in they defend animals that have no rights and no voice and they fight to curb animal violence and unethical treatment.  PETA is a bad idea because they are so extreme they resort of arson, assault, battery, theft, willful and malicious destruction of property, and other extremely violent actions.  They also use nudity a tremendous amount and that can be offensive to some people.  They are an ideology and are unable to debate fairly and with an open mind.

They're the worst kind of group.

I think if they toned things down and found other peaceful methods of reaching their goals they would (a) have much more success and attract more people for social change and (b) stop being thought of as a fringe, extremist group.  That's the way to espouse social change.  Martin Luther King, Jr, didn't fight and kill people.  Malcolm X did.  

Who had more success?

PETA by itself is just an association of people sharing similar worldviews, however wrong I think they are (I love meat, period). The problem arises when they want to legislate their views and impose them to everyone.

I just flat out hate PETA, mostly because they are completely sensitive to everything, mostly how I view them, they're complete hypocrites, they make videos to show them that animals needs to be saved, but they're the ones that kills those animals, and that's the worse things, and also, if they see anything that is considered "offensive" to them they raise a huge issue about it, like if they see a game that is using animals, they throw a huge hissy fit about it and I don't think this is completely right.

The thing is, the only reason that PETA is well known is because of their stupidity. And it's just amusing of all the stupid, pointless hissy fits they make, and I say to myself, "Really, throwing a hissy fit about this". All I see it, they're just doing it to get attention and that is the wrong kind of attention.

DeepMew :
While PETA does do some good sometimes such as raising awareness about pet abuse, promoting pet safety and protecting endangered species they have some serious flaws. PETA is against hunting. Hunting if done correctly can be beneficial as it keeps animal populations from overpopulating were it would cause other animals to starve. Ecosystem's can usually only handle a certain amount of animals if one animal population gets out of hand it is harmful to others. Second, I have found them to be hypocritical. They preach about not wearing fur but yet some of them do anyway. Third flaw is they are really big on GMO foods, which have been linked to cause cancer. 

So in Summary they do a few good things, but they are very flawed. Their ways of thinking are kind of illogical and non factual. I hope this helps 

I really don't like PETA. They spazz out about the most stupid things when there are so many other things to worry about. 

I just hate the PETA. It all started when they were in an episode of South Park, then I got older and realized they were real. They have done a bit of beneficial things, but hunting actually is good. Overpopulation can be a problem for the Ecosystem and PETA is overall taking things too far like Pokemon. Animals aren't abused in Pokemon, well at least not in the games, and the creatures are mythical, and there is no harm done. That is one thing they react too severely about. Even vegetarians don't like the PETA group because hunting has its pros and cons. But if animals were NEVER killed, this worst would be infested with wild animals and all will fail if that happens. People getting injured by animals, weird animals roaming our plots, it could happen. I'm up for people who care for the animals, but this isn't what I'd call a linear group of animal helpers. Animals mostly die from people killing animals for food or for skins and what not, and it's a good thing it happens. Not only do we care about animals, we care about OURSELVES. And that is why hunting is important, and PETA, on the other hand, is against it.

To sum this up, PETA...is a group of nuts.

I don't like them. They're both a bunch of idoits, and hypocrites. Everyone knows about their Pokémon outburst. Completely irrational, and they didn't do any research into the actual games. But they also "Rescue" dogs and pets. But the thing is, THEY EUTHENIZE THEM AFTERWARDS!!! That's right, they whine about animal abuse, then kill all the ones they "save". They're like whiny 5 year olds all the time.

Not a lot of people know this, but one of PETA's beliefs is that people generally should not own pets at all because they believe that they should be 100% free from all interactions with humans. Now, I agree with some of the things PETA stands for, but I completely go against this idea, even though I don't have a pet.

I don't think this is a good group at all.. it disgusts me to see animal cruelty and especially sense I love dogs! Abusing animals period is evil and I won't accept it. This group needs to change or find another way to show themselves because this is just wrong.

I'm not going to focus on their utterly pointless attacks on video games featuring "cruelty" to animals, because it would be extremely generic. I can't even count how many times I've seen people making posts and even videos dedicated to dissecting a horrible game made by an extremist vegan group. I will say this, though:their games are, ironically, more violent and feature more cruelty to animals than the games that they're trying to "parody."

The main reason anybody knows about them is because of their utterly insane views and their overwhelming desire to impose their views on anybody who does anything that they disagree with. They once started giving out pamphlets containing extreme graphic violence and constant anti-meat propaganda to schoolchildren who weren't even in middle school entitled "Your Mommy Kills Animals!" and "Your Daddy Kills Animals!", respectively. They also became known for supplying funding to an eco-terrorist group, and came under heavy fire for it. They're basically a joke in most serious vegetarian and vegan communities, and to most serious vegetarians and vegans.

I am all for animal rights, veganism and all that but PETA in my eyes are a bunch of village idiots. Sometimes they protest against ridiculous things. Yeah, Mario wearing that furry suit is the same as clubbing baby seals and stomping on kittens for sure. Sometimes they don't even have their own facts straight. I once saw a copy of their glossy mail order catalogue and they actually sold books on how to turn cats into vegetarians. Like, that is seriously just cruel to animals in it self.

Here in the deep south, where it's bacon and eggs for breakfast, chicken for lunch, and beef for dinner. I have to say I've never even seen a P.E.T.A. sign, much less a protest. They aren't really welcome 'round these here parts.

I would agree with them on their stance of ethical treatment in slaughterhouses, there are instances where slaughterhouses are unnecessarily brutal and painful for the animal being slaughtered, but that's about it. Otherwise, they're complete morons.

They put a gravestone near Col. Sanders grave with an acronym on it "KFC TORTURES BIRDS"(no point in typing out the acronym)... OK, even if KFC tortures birds(they don't), Col. Sanders is DEAD... there's nothing he can do about it at this point... idiots

That's just ONE stupid thing they've done, their archives of stupidity are endless.

For a group who claims to be advocating for the rights of animals, they sure do more harm than good to their cause. There are several more capable (and saner) groups that are just sitting in the shadows because of their propaganda.
