PETA and Animal Rights?

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA...but what are so many people across the U.S. and other countries really doing with animal rights. Now, I am not one of those "I feed my dog beef tenderloin and give my kids bologna" or "I will eat a cow alive" people, I am probably one of those people who are right in the middle of both. In our utterly strange society today, it completely baffles me to see Michael Vick go to prison for having a dog fight in his house, when everyday the local animal control takes a mangy wandering cat, who is just minding his own business, and automatically hands them a death sentence of lethal injection....probably to gather its leftover meat and shove it into a small metal can you soccer moms and shoes with no socks dads call dog food.

Seriously, we all know that the uncompromisable truth behind a lot of illegal activities and the penalties brought forth, (Dog Fights, Cock Fights, Prostitution, Gambling, etc) comes down to one simple source, taxes. Lets not forget the unforgettable historic lyrics of a song from 1969 called "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater Revival. In most cases, if there were taxes paid on dog fighting, Michael Vick would never of been in prison. If that is the case, why not put boxers in prison, who kick each others ass beyond recognition for the same reason.

Another mind boggling area I have noticed is the "rights for dolphins" people. Okay, so people spend countless hours holding signs in Japan, protesting the dolphins getting slain by the orientals, even though they are using this for food. Then I see it here in the states, screaming mindless zealots protesting by the tuna factory, forcing "Chicken of the Sea" brand tuna to place a "Dolphin Safe" label on their cans...But Dude! What about the freak'en Tuna!!! Nobody gave a two bits about the slain tuna that was ripped into shreds and shoved into your mouths for a brief palate enjoyment.

Contradictions, and more contradictions, one after another. So lets get down to the simple facts of life people, I think it's wrong to abuse an animal. You should not abuse any animal. However, I do not see anything wrong with eating them, wearing their fur, etc. You have to eat what is or was alive to stay alive. For the strange folks who participate with PETA, who continue to contradict themselves by the day, who say that animals are living creatures, so is every vegetable, bean, fruit and, especially every wrinkled green dollar you greedily shove down your already filled pockets from eager donors who eat up your lies. Those green little dollars did come off of a living tree, but we would never protest that, would we?

So, in other words, PETA and the rest of the Vegans, or freak-ans, or weirdo's, whoever you maybe, you need to can it, seriously. If we were to stop using all living sources for our daily functions in life, then we would all live in the forest, naked, and starve to death at one month old.

And that, my friends, is The Uncompromisable Truth.

  1. Interesting and thoughtful. We are after all a part of the food chain, thankfully near the top in that we don't have many predators. But we are predators, moreover we are carnivores as evidenced by our incisors. A lion doesn't feel guilty about the zebra or the gnu, similarly we need to survive and we can't do that effectively on vegies despite what the vegies say. I have heard said that plants screm when they are plucked, who listens to them? Certainly not the vegies.

  2. I totally agree with this blog. In the bible in genesis it say man shall have dominion over the fish of the sea the foul of the air and over the cattle and over all the eart and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. When he cast Adam and Eve from the garden, the dominion he gave was for the survival of man and woman. It was Gods intent from the beginning to eat of the land sea and air. Now I wouldn't hurt an animal if my life depended on it, but Adam you kill it and I'll Grill it!
