130. PETA is NUTS
I'm all for protecting animals, but PETA has no morals. These are the type of people who stand outside malls naked protesting leathers and furs at Christmas. Like that's what I want my children to see. Not saying that the idea is good. But, you're going to email they guy in his hospital room? While he's probably completely medicated to the hilt? My problem with PETA is that they put more value on animals than humans. While this may change Sigfried and Roy's ideas it may not. I'm sure they feel about they're cats the way some people feel about "Fluffy". And apparently Roy said before he lost conciousness not to kill the cat. Which is usually the sad case after an animal tastes human blood. And a sancuary while being just what it is, is not the animal's natural habitat and could displace other animals. (which would be bad by PETA's logic) What's done is done with these animals. You can not put full grown animals back into the wild. And once they are familar with people you shouldn't. But I am always suspect of PETA. I wasn't thrilled with they're "happy meals" with the toys being butchered animals. That's another lovely thing for a kid.
