PETA’s pro-fish leaflet reminds fishers and their families that fish feel pain and fear when they are impaled in the mouth and ripped from their underwater homes and that they deserve to be treated with kindness, just like all animals.

I enjoy torturing fish by catching them, and then throwing the bastards back just so they can experience the pain all over again. And if I'm feeling saucy, I also mock them while I have them out of the water.
-
What have we become? Why do we eat the bodies of dead animals, some of which are parents, and leaving the young abandoned? How can we pour ketchup on them and then do the unspeakable?
-
Ketchup? On fish? Ewwwwwww. You heathen.
-
(well, only on lake smelts that have suffered third degree burns in boiling oil. You don't get those in Bermuda ;) )

CLARICE
All right, then tell me how -
DR. QUINN
No. It's your turn to tell me, Clarice.
You don't have any more vacations to sell,
on Anthrax Island. Why did you run away
from that ranch?
CLARICE
Dr. Quinn, when there's time I'll -
DR. QUINN
We don't reckon time the same way, Clarice.
This is all the time you'll ever have.
CLARICE
Later, listen, I'll -
DR. QUINN
I'll listen now. After your father's
murder, you were orphaned. You were
ten years old. You went to live with
cousins, on a sheep and horse ranch in
Montana. And - ?
CLARICE
And - one morning I just - ran away...
She turns from him. He presses closer, gripping the bars.
DR. QUINN
Not "just," Clarice. What set you off?
You started what time?
CLARICE
Early. Still dark.
DR. QUINN
Then something woke you. What? Did you
dream...? What was it?
IN FLASHBACK -
The 10-year old Clarice sits up abruptly in her bed, fright-
ened. She is in a Montana ranch house; it al almost dawn.
Strange, fearful shadows on her ceiling and walls... a win-
dow, partly fogged by the cold; eerie brightness outside.
CLARICE (V.O.)
I heard a strange sound...
DR. QUINN (V.O.)
What was it?
THE CHILD RISES -
crosses to the window in her nightgown, rubs the glass.
CLARICE (V.O.)
I didn't know. I went to look...
HIGH ANGLES (2nd STORY) - THE CHILD'S POV -
Shadowy men, ranch hands, are moving in and out of a nearby
barn, carrying mysterious bundles. The mens' breath is
steaming... A refrigerated truck idles nearby, its engine
adding more steam. A strange, almost surrealistic scene...
CLARICE (contd., V.O.)
Screaming! Some kind of - screaming.
Like a child's voice...
THE LITTLE GIRL
is terrified; she covers her ears.
DR. QUINN (V.O.)
What did you do?
CLARICE (V.O.)
Got dressed without turning on the
light. I went downstairs... outside...
THE LITTLE GIRL
in her winter coat, slips noiselessly towards the open barn
door. She ducks into the shadows to avoid a ranch hand, who
passes her with a squirming bundle of some kind. He goes into
the barn, and she edges after him reluctantly.
CLARICE (contd., V.O.)
I crept up to the barn... I was so
scared to look inside - but I had to...
THE LITTLE GIRL'S POV -
as the open doorway LOOMS CLOSER... Bright lights inside, straw
bales, the edges of stalls, then moving figures...
DR. QUINN (V.O.)
And what did you see, Clarice?
A SQUIRMING LAMB -
is held down on a table by two ranch hands.
CLARICE (V.O.)
Lambs. The lambs were screaming...
A third cowboy stretches out the lamb's neck, raises a bloody
knife. Just as he's about to slice its throat -
BACK TO THE ADULT CLARICE -
staring into the distance, shaken, still trembling from the
child's shock. We see Dr. Quinn, over her shoulder, studying
her intently.
DR. QUINN
They were slaughtering the spring lambs?
CLARICE
Yes...! They were screaming.
DR. QUINN
So you ran away...
CLARICE
No. First I tried to free them... I
opened the gate of their pen - but
they wouldn't run. They just stood
there, confused. They wouldn't run...
DR. QUINN
But you could. You did.
CLARICE
I took one lamb. And I ran away, as
fast as I could...
IN FLASHBACK -
a vast Montana plain, and crossing this, a tiny figure - the
little Clarice, holding a lamb in her arms.
DR. QUINN (V.O.)
Where were you going?
CLARICE (V.O.)
I don't know. I had no food or water.
It was very cold. I thought - if I can
even save just one... but he got so
heavy. So heavy...
The tiny figure stops, and after a few moments sinks to the
ground, hunched over in dispair.
CLARICE (contd., V.O.)
I didn't get more than a few miles
before the sheriff's car found me.
The rancher was so angry he sent me to
live at the Lutheran orphanage in
Bozeman. I never saw the ranch again...
DR. QUINN (V.O.)
But what became of your lamb?
(no response)
Clarice...?
BACK TO SCENE -
as the adult Clarice turns, staring into his feverish eyes.
She shakes her head, unwilling - or unable - to say more.
DR. QUINN (contd.)
You still wake up sometimes, don't you?
Wake up in the dark, with the lambs
screaming?
CLARICE
Yes...
DR. QUINN
Do you think if you saved Catherine, you
could make them stop...? Do you think,
if Catherine lives, you won't wake up
in the dark, ever again, to the scream-
ing of the lambs? Do you...?
CLARICE
Yes! I don't know...! I don't know.
DR. QUINN
(a pause; then, oddly at peace)
Thank you, Clarice.

Plenty of whackjobs with money and fame.
This also, just in.
-
You know what to do next time your kids have lice..
Just because you can't see their terrorized eyes or hear their screams of anguish doesn't mean you can ignore them. Shampoo and detergents are chemical Weapons of Mass Murder.
And no, it doesn't make any difference that they've got no vocal chords and only a dozen neurons in their entire exoskeletons, they do feel pain and fear. They most likely develop post-traumatic stress -although it hasn't been formaly proven yet- so take pitty on them.

Hey look, GW pardoned a turkey last week, what more do they want?

I have often waited for two to line up, one in front of the other, so that I may save a bullet. It usually works.

If you’ve ever seen a picture of SOB and know about his deviancies, you’d recognize that this is how he masturbates.

:rofl There's this girl in my Biology class that should fail because she refuses to do anything with animals, that's right, she's a PETA member. The teacher brings out a chunk of cow liver and a sheep uterus with a baby sheep inside it, and she freaks out, "Oh my god, how did these animals die? We're they killed naturally?" The most I can say to her is, "Yes, lead is a naturally occuring substance, as well as metal."
She thinks she has some sort of authority because she is a PETA member :lol
-
Very simple, give them a choice.
A I can go shoot that nice deer in the woods, gut it, skin it, cut it, and eat it.
B I can do the same to the offending Peta member.
A I can go fishing, catch a nice fat 3lb walley, fillet it out for supper
Or
B You can let me fillet out a Peta member and cook that for supper.
They either have the courage of their convictions or they don't.
And if they truly belive that strongly about it they should be willing to die to prove it.
Right?

Hiya Ghosth... I know what you are saying, but I do not think Peta members would taste good because it is the oil that carrys the flavor... and of course, Vegans do not partakke.
-
It's not murder if they are willing to die is it? It would be suicide on their part? Or martyrdom?

See now here is how times have changed.
When and where I went to schol and such a person did this they would find themselves getting buttwhipped on a daily basis and probably forcefed the liver ta boot

Just because they arecelebraties doesnt make their opinions or views somehow more credible.

Many if not most are. LMAO

"Many" and "most" does not equal "all"
Which is why I used those terms ;)
