Teen changes name to address of PETA anti-dissection site

but it is, to me, very sad that there are so many people who just don't care. And not just about animals, but about health care, the environment, the state of our economy, and, most of all, about the type of government we have now and want to have in the future. "It's not my problem and I can't do anything about it anyway, plus it is too far gone". Of course you have chemicals in your water, but do we need to make it worse, or better? Why do we tolerate so many antibiotics in our food production, when it can be done better? This is my country, and I do care about these and other issues. And we live in a place where we can make a difference without being tossed in jail or worse for demanding changes. The vast majority of the world would be thrilled to have our problems and would be excited to try to improve and progress because for them the future would, for the first time, really mean something. And, if you do trade places with your dog, please stay away from dognappers or you might have a truly bad day and be sold to a testing lab.

When Obama gets in I will have free health care forever, ...right? So on the infection score, no harm no foul as long as I don't have to pay for it. My water is already polluted with so many chemicals and drugs and poisons one more won't hurt, so there's no real surprise there either. My children just hit the "hormone" years so the real question is "Would I notice?" As for treating animals goes? I'd trade lives with one of mine in half a heartbeat, no questions asked, no backsies. They are treated like little furry gods. But as for animals I do not own, or animals which are used for testing to ensure me a longer life? That's all good, as long as the law is followed, if it isn't it's on them not me.

when you get an infection that can't be fought with antibiotics and you lose your limbs or life. Or when you water supply is polluted with raw sewage from holding ponds. Or the excess of hormones in the environment affect the health of your child. It is not all about compassion for sensate beings, but also for real threats to ourselves. My point was not to get PETA converts, like I said, they can be over the top. But to remind folks that just because PETA takes an advocacy position, does not mean it is wrong. Believe it or not, most people do care about how we treat our animals…or so I thought.

Factory farming, fur, wholesale slaughter, who cares. As long as I get my McNuggets hot and toasted golden brown, debeaked to save time and in case the head ends up in my bag I won't hurt myself. I honestly don't care about how my choice of food gets to my table, or desk, as long as it's hot, fast, and tasty. Post vids to the news, write articles of abuse, show pictures of monkeys in full body choke holds, as long as the meds get approved, the fur is warm and soft, and the abuse videos can end up on youtube synched to Jackson's "Beat It" I really don't care. Got the point now you peta trolls?

haven't a clue what factory farming is like. Animals boxed in cages so small they cannot turn around, beaks removed, tails chewed off, standing in excrement and injected with hormones to force growth. The antibiotic problems we have now with the "superbug" staph infections is related to the massive amount of antibiotics fed to animals because of the raising conditions. And, of course, the immense environmental impact of huge holding ponds overflowing with raw sewage.
Now, that being said, I am not a vegetarian and do enjoy meats and fish, and try, when available, to get humanely raised, non-antibiotic meats, even though it may cost a bit more. The greater the market for such foods, the lower the price as such farming takes on a greater role in our food supply.
Now, PETA often goes over the top, as do many passionate advocates of positions both right and left, but they do bring attention to many instances of animal treatment that should alarm any person with a hint of compassion. A little less knee jerk and a bit more understanding would go a long way on both sides.

"i am a giant attention hungry feminine hygiene product which consists of a bag and a nozzle".

seriously, america, THIS is what happens when you don't hug your kids.

I heard the other was Unintelligent Excrement.

Now if there was ever a terroist group, Peta is it.

Not.

Well, it's safer than going to Israel and standing in front of a bulldozer, and will be about as effective.

There's a real world out there, this has nothing to do with it.

My wife just bought a shampoo and on the label it states "we do not test on animals" so I guess they let the testing be done on the general pulic and see how many lawsuits and complaints they get first. Also if it were not for testing on animals then the medical society would test on our children and loved ones instead including dissections? Long live PETA!

You go girl. It takes more to stand up for what you believe than join those who could care less about animals.
PETA does a good job at making the public aware of animal cruely; whatever it takes. sure they may go out a bit but it gets your attention!!! Keep up the good work PETA for speaking for those who can not speak for themselves. Mitsey123

Wont it be great when that site goes offline because no one cares

lish11030:
"If they want to be taken seriously, perhaps they should act like professionals instead of whack jobs."

These folks are attention-starved individuals making a wage via a tax-exempt organization. If they acted professionally, no one would notice or contribute. Their goal is not to save animals, the world, etc., but only to make (tax-free) money. If they can do it, legally, from gullible people who buy into these weird ideals, I say good on 'em. Certianly not an organization to take seriously or get upset over...as they would like.
