Thank you Hamas!

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

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.

This is the same PETA that equates chicken farming with the Holocaust.

Not that the conditions in those industrialized chicken farms are good, but to equate them to the concerted effort by the Nazi party to exterminate the Jewish state is, at the very least, insulting and overreaching.

PETA also protests against animal shelters for euthanizing animals... only to turn around and do it themselves.

Indeed, it's hard to imagine some of these quotes ever making sense "in context", unless it's an attempt at gallows humor.

Also, say what you will about how Penn & Teller cherry pick their arguments and are abrasive *******s, their episode on PETA is somewhat informative.

So, Merc, do pardon us for being rather skeptical and opposed to PETA as an organization.

Please post the What if over on the history forum, we could use the traffic.

some of those quotes arent even from Peta, theyre from ALF.

Is it fair game to use Pal Islamic Jihad quotes to tar Hamas?

I mean really. PETA is issuing press releases, silly or not. A few miles from this zoo, Hamas if firing Qassams at Israeli towns. I mean who gives a **** about PETA? Im no huge fan of Peter Singer, but he makes his case logically, and a response should be logical. And, AFAIK, hes never actually done anything particularly hateful.

They HAVE said things that excuse what ALF does. How many "peace loving folks" in the Islamic world, and in the West, routinely excuse Hamas, PIJ, and AAMB?

I mean sure, I had no issue with the OP, and it was all funny. But to seriously get upset at PETA, in this context, strikes me as seriously misplaced priorities.

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.

Really? Man, the bus drivers where I live must all think they're in the movie Speed.

You mean my dog cant vote if he's Republican!? I'm outraged!

you know you've failed when you make people take Hamas' side

It sure beats outrage over, say, "wardrobe malfunctions."

Both are quite ridiculous, but I disagree which is more ridiculous.

LOTM, that's the think that irritates me the most. That these peace loving dicks justify the action of troublemakers such as ALF. ALF is a criminal entity. Period.

We have our little animal protecting feminazienvironmentalistpacifists, because somehow they come in this package of "get it all", so anyway the point is, even if they belong to what we could consider more moderate section of activism, they often accept such action that ALF does, plus they know who they are anyway. They're protecting them. ANd somehow everyone else, except them and ALF is bad and the problem.

I seriously wouldn't think much if a house would fell on these, a bunch of these, say 100 dies? I don't care. Good. THe world is now a better place. Scum like them, they don't even bring nice income so they really don't even pay taxes. Most services they don't even buy so... they're useless and they make our life more difficult. I wouldnt' actively hope they disappear, but if a natural disaster was to happen... too bad.
