Default PETA slams "shocking" Hamas TV clip
So PETA is mad the tv station is telling people not to abuse animals?

I'm not quite sure I follow...

Speaking to Reuters by telephone, he said PETA was drafting a letter of protest to the Gaza-based al-Aqsa television station, which aired the show -- aimed at teaching children not to abuse animals -- last week.



Who finds these PETA members? I'm not sure they really exist.

PETA, whatever.


"Even at the zoo, we sometimes complain about the aggressive behavior of some of the children," he said. "But we do not blame them. We blame the violent environment that surrounds them -- Israeli violence and Palestinian-Palestinian violence too."


Its the Joos' fault.

So "It's shocking and sickening" to show children animal abuse, but not to teach children to blow themselves up killing more children. That's why I refer to them as PITA (Pain In The @ss), instead of PETA.

These activists don't care for people, they never did. They can say they do, but they're liars as well so... take it as you want.

I can't find much more disgusting people on this earth, except those who are actively even bigger bastards, like rapists, killers and terrorists.

I assume that when this Bumblebee Man "mistreats" the lions in question, he throws rocks or something? Getting up close and personal to mistreat the lions would not be wise.

And yes, PETA's screwed up, nothing I didn't know already.

Although I am a PETA member myself, of course, in the People for the Eating of Tasty Animals sense. Who was it who coined that? Was it The Brain? Now there is someone who has not been around for a long time. He must be drawing his pension by now

Mercator, I think we're slamming PETA for being PETA. At least, I am. With all the problems humans face around the world, they reserve their outrage for crap like this. This's rather inconsequential as a case of cruelty to animals; at least when they're protesting the inhumanity of farm conditions they have a real point. An inept be-nice-to-animals video is no big deal.

This's rather inconsequential as a case of cruelty to animals (...) But a case of cruelty to animals nonetheless... And judging by their blog post on this their level of outrage is pretty limited. And they seem to expect a reaction from Hamas about as much as Slowwhand does.

I guess PETA just contacted the media to get some attention to this/themselves, then the media get some juicy quotes and spice it up a little by using verbs like "slam". And then you all take the opportunity to point and laugh at PETA for frothing at the mouth as usual. Except they're not.

Thank you Hamas! This is why so many voted for Hamas instead of Fatah.

I'm not seriously upset with them. More... irritated. In the same way that I'm irritated about bus drivers who won't drive faster than 20 ****ing miles an hour for three ****ing miles, even when there's absolutely no ****ing traffic.
