What PeTA does is they see animals equal to humans no matter what the sercumstance and that is just not right. The leaders of PeTA and MANY of their folowers would rather see a couple of lab rats survive than a little girl with a life threatening disease be treated with a cure that came from animals, or was tested on animals. I have researched PeTA before and have found many interesting FACTS such as this: The FBI declares the Animal Liberation Front and Earth Liberation Front of being domestic terrorists, the same groups that PeTA gave money to, the same money that was donated by members-supporters that believed that the money was going to help animals. Another interesting fact is that PeTA takes in about $15 million dollars a year, but in the late 90s, they only donated a couple of thousand dollars to animal shelters. Huh? Where did the rest of that money go?
I enjoy hunting (deer, squirrel, rabbit, grouse, ect...), fishing, camping, hiking, herpetology (the study of reptiles and amphibians), History, weapons, and taxidermy. I respect nature, I do not poach, I do not litter, I do not treat animals wrong. When I hunt and fish I do not torture the animals, I take clean kills. I do not waste any meat. My dad has tought me to respect nature.
It is alright to have your opinion, but to force your opinion down everyone else's throats is wrong. The people at PETA should stop worrying about the hunters, fishers, and the other hundreds of millions of Americans who eat meat. If they choose to eat grass and twigs, fine, what do I care.
PETA is looking at hunting the wrong way. Hunting is fun, and why should we have to give up something that humans have been doing for thousands of years just because some animal rights nut thinks that it is wrong. Inorder for something to live, something else MUST die.
Eating a strict vegetarian diet is unhealthy. PETA thinks that just because we eat meat we are going to have a heart attack. That is just not so. I read of a case of one person that had been living on a strict vegetarian diet for 13 years and his vision had gone so bad it was 20/400 due to lack of nutrients getting to parts of his eye! He had no historty of alcohol abuse, did not smoke cigarettes, and did not take supplements. His vision was not able to recover either.
