The F-Tards at PETA to the rescue AGAIN!:D


God I wish they cared as much for people as they do even the common housefly... get a load of this.:D

I wonder why they don't go to Iraq/Afganistan to protect the ants from being bombed.

    Every time PETA does something stupid like this, I buy and grill a steak in their honor.

    I want to send him an electric flyswatter from harbor freight :)

    I wonder how many bugs these PETA people took out on their drive to work this morning?

    I actually really enjoy it when PETA does stuff like this, because they further discredit themselves to people who actually know how to have rational thoughts.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    PITA also stands for "Pain in the ****" so it does apply to PETA in that sense at least!:)

    I've known a couple of these fools, and I can tell you it's a good thing they're involved in something so laughable. These are the people that will latch onto almost any cause, and as long as they're latched onto PETA, they're not involved in anything that'll really affect your life.

    Personally I think we should take the top 10 officals of PETA and put them smack dab in the middle of the arctic coast right now buck naked for 24 hrs and see how many swats they take at the mosquitoes, considering hundreds of caribou die every summer there due to loss of blood it would be an interesting experiment :D

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D
