Sea Kitten hunting. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1284 Joined: 29 Jun 2008 | I once heard a great PETA story. A guy had a bunch of rats and got sued (by PETA naturally) for killing all of them. So when the survivors multiplied he put them all in a box and shipped them to the Texas PETA headquarters. What did PETA do you ask? well naturally they exterminated them...silly PETA! |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1071 Joined: 26 Jan 2008 | I once had a PETA member stop on the side of the street with a picture of an "aborted fetus" the conversation went like this. yeah apparently PETA do abortion protests who knew i didnt. PETA Person: Do you condone this look at this poor baby never got a chance to live because its parent aborted it. Yeah i talk to myself when I'm by myself |

Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 797 Joined: 28 Dec 2008 | Wait, so would adult sea kittens be sea cats? Calling all fish sea kittens wouldn't make any sense, since a kitten is a baby cat. Shit this is the dumbest thing I have ever laid eyes on. Sea Kittens really?!?!?!?! |

I won't and I'm not. And I was never trying to insult you. sorry for the spelling but my head hurts =( |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 884 Joined: 19 Sep 2008 | If they were actually succesful in getting fish renamed to Sea Kittens, I'd still eat em. No problem. I'd probably eat more! |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2591 Joined: 27 Aug 2008 | Kittening instead of fishing? If I was PETA I'd be more worried about desensitizing people to the concepts of catching real cats with little pieces of meat attached to fishing hooks. |

Eh, sorry if I was a little presumptuous with the "I ARE NICE REALLY" thing; guess I just misinterpreted. I agree with you though, as the more intelligent and, in a way, powerful species we have every responsibility to look after the planet in all sense, with all its creatures. We have the power to mess it up, we should be expected to maintain it. Unlike PETA, who believe animals and people should stay either side of a kind of Berlin wall, in which no cat should be subjected to the tyranny as man as their 'pet'. Because, as we all know, cats are weak, pathetic creatures who are known for their endless loyalty and habit of staying with their owner to their dying day. |

On the Record Posts: 7300 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | I wonder what they're trying to say. Definitely not anything religious, and not anything scientific is an understatement, what? |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 706 Joined: 8 Sep 2008 | ignoring for a moment that its PETA and anyone affiliated with them needs to be thrown into a tiger pit (we should give the tigers a good habbitat, big underground area with artificial sunlight a day/night cycle and caves, perhaps a small section of river. but only feed them PETArds. petatards?) yes. sea kittens. so what about river sea kittens? what will they be called? and lake sea kittens? and pond sea kittens? will frogs be sea kittens? will i be grossed out by kittens now? will people order the kitten instead of the steak at restraunts? will deep sea bass sea kittening survive as a sport even with such a long name? |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1083 Joined: 11 May 2008 | You know...that's not really true, about not wanting to put a hook through their head if they were called sea kittens...I hate cats... |
Muckraker Posts: 295 Joined: 26 Aug 2008 | The reasoning behind this is pretty obvious, I think. Most people find mammals more "cute" than animals further removed from us in the evolutionary tree such as insects, fish or reptiles. Perhaps we are genetically conditioned to find kittens cute, I don't know. What's clear is that more people will feel an immediate negative response if they hear that kittens are being mistreated, than if they hear that fish are being mistreated. So, rewiring our "instinctive" responses so that we feel the same about fish as we do about kittens makes great sense from PETAs perspective. What I wonder is when someone is going to look to the plight of the cholera bacteria... |

I hate to say this but survival is the most important thing. You might say "I would sacrifice myself" but deep down every person knows that their own survival is the most important thing. |

Well, it's completely possible to survive on a vegetarian diet... It might suit your palate, but we don't really need to eat fish (or any form of meat) in order to survive. |

But you are not going to stop everyone eating meat unless you kill all the animals they are eating,and thats thinking like a Peta member! |

PETA murdered over 3000 animals surrendered to them in 2006. They are of the belief that pets cannot be 'untamed'. Apart from their pets. |
