This is the problem for all groups like this.There probably is a need for a group to protect animals from abuse.However,how can you take ANYTHING they say seriously when they get upset at a fly?
Its the same with Al Sharptons group.There is REAL racism in this country.The plight of schools in black communities is a disgrace.Yet,Sharpton thinks its important to protest Imus.You just saw it last week with Letterman and Palin.Groups coming out and are outraged over a joke by a comedian.If you dont like the joke,dont watch anymore,but do we need protests,calls to the station,threats of boycotts?
Everyone is looking and waiting to be offended.I dont get offended at anything.I didnt care about Imus,I dont care about Letterman,and frankly didnt care if either appologised,the thing thats offensive is the double standard of the reactions to both.PETA needs to focus on REAL abuse of animals,not bugs that live in shit and spread disease.NO ONE will take them seriously if thats their focus.
