I know animal attacks are a serious thing but...I guess that's what happens when you tell a fox "swiper no swiping..swiper no swiping...swiper no swiping"

I'm surprised animal rights groups aren't baying for the jogger's blood after she dared to throw it into the boot of her car.

I can't wait for the day when PETA starts calling for the rights of rabid animals. Because then I'll be able to eat a burger in peace.

The KFC down the street from ASU sometimes has protesters over their chicken. It's a lot of fun to eat your meal in front of them. It was the most incredible fist fight I ever saw.

Maybe the fox was just trying to tell her that her shoes were untied? It was going after her feet wasn't it?

Try earmuffs.

Also, PETA are ridiculous. They sent out a press release recently saying that Ben & Jerry's ice cream should use human breast milk. I'm not making that up.

Is peta the group that wants to protect animals by getting rid of people? I heard one animal rights group thinks that. If I ever come across someone like that I will have to say " you first."

I'm not sure that that's PETA. PETA thinks that animals should have as many rights as humans. I'm going to say what I hear someone else say that I can't remember who it was: I didn't climb to the top of the food chain to eat tofu.

No. PETA champions for animal rights and fights against animal cruelty and exploitation. In theory: They're great. But the organization is run by people who swing to the far left (outside of the realms Democrat/Republican partisan politics) and have been accused of having ties to ecoterrorists.

The theoretical, looks-good-on-paper PETA I could stand. Perhaps lobbying to try and decrease cattle farming to a reasonable extent, which would have all kinds of benefits ecologists would agree with. (Decreased necessity to tear down forests, methane emissions drop from fewer cows, etc. Although meat prices would go up, and non-green people who happen to enjoy a good cookout wouldn't agree) And there are supposed to be health benefits from eating less red meat.

But PETA as it actually is--dumping paint on people's animal-based clothing, showing kids pictures of slaughtered chickens at McDonald's, etc--is just obnoxious, and have quite successfully killed their own name for the public.

PETA fun fact: I applied to work there a few months ago. But after doing some thorough research, I decided I can't work for PETA because of the very reasons you listed. Their campaigns are obnoxious and offensive. I don't want PETA baggage associated with my resume.

As my sister's fiance once said, "Vegetables are what food eats."
