PETA is taking their message to little kids now. Specifically, little kids whose mothers happen to be
wearing fur coats. I've also heard from a parent in England whose
seven-year-old girl was accosted in McDonalds by someone from PETA claiming that her parents didn't love her and were poisoning her by feeding her meat. This person then proceeded to show this little girl pictures of mutilated chickens and cows! Needless to say, that child was devastated, and to what good?
Look, I can totally get on board with the concept of People Treating Animals Ethically. It's something I've become more and more aware of over the years, in part because of some of PETA's more rational educational tactics. But, YOU DO NOT ATTACK LITTLE KIDS!!! EVER!
Is PETA that ethically bankrupt--hell, that
creatively bankrupt--that they can't find a better way to educate the public (especially children)? How can they possibly be proud that the message they're pushing on children is that their mommy is a murderer and that they should watch out for their puppies and kittens or their mommy will kill them too?
This is every bit as disgusting and counter-productive as those whack-jobs who stand outside Planned Parenthood and abortion clinics with big posters of aborted fetuses.
Sick, and wrong...
