    Except I've stated many times that I don't agree with forcing religious type beliefs on anyone. That's what PETA is...a religion.

    hardly sinister?
    beyonce and her mom wanted to talk about the Save the Music charity, not have it turn into a PETA infomercial.

    Why not say just ask Beyonce to have a meeting with PETA? why the mess? why in front of her mom?

    Beyonce was ticked and she had the right to be ticked.

    what did he have in mind then?
    should we all grab arrows and shoot down down caribu?
    Peta is useless. If it were about treating our pets and stopping endangered species fine. save the whales, cool.
    save the chickens at KFC, not cool.

    People are dying of hunger in this world and PETA is wasting money trying to shock celebrities. what a freaking waste.

    I would think god meant for us to grow in our understanding and compassion of all living beings.

    Actually you could feed the world on the money used to feed animals for food etc.

    But I do think PETA wrongly tries to make peace using non-peaceful methods.

    You can eat many animals at the zoo. You can also have compassion for the animals that you eat, I try to. What's the difference?

    you have to draw a line somewhere. you cant feel sorry for the ants you stepped on.

    the dolphins dont feel compassion for the fish they eat.

    We don't have to draw any line. We just want to. It's a product of dualistic thinking.

    Have you talked to a dolphin? I remember this story: Dolphins can compassion for us.

    Dolphins save swimmers from shark

    The Guardian


    Move over Rover, let Flipper take over. News from New Zealand suggests man's best friend is in fact the bottlenose dolphin.
    It emerged yesterday that four swimmers were saved from a great white shark by a pod of altruistic dolphins, who swam in circles around them until the humans could escape.

    Rob Howes, a British-born lifeguard, had gone swimming with his daughter, Niccy, and two of her friends off Ocean beach near Whangarei on the North Island, when the dolphins suddenly appeared. At first, he thought the mammals were being playful, but he soon realised the danger the swimmers were in.

    "They started to herd us up, they pushed all four of us together by doing tight circles around us," Mr Howes told the New Zealand Press Association.

    He tried to drift away from the group, but two of the bigger dolphins herded him back - just as he spotted a three-metre [10ft] great white shark heading towards him. "I just recoiled," he said. "It was only about two metres away from me, the water was crystal clear and it was as clear as the nose on my face. They had corralled us up to protect us."

    The dolphins kept their vigil for 40 minutes until the shark lost interest, and the group could swim 100m back to the shore.

    Another lifeguard, Matt Fleet, on patrol in a lifeboat, saw the dolphins circling the swimmers and slapping their tails on the water to keep them in place. He told the Northern Advocate newspaper that he also had a clear sighting of the shark. "Some of the people later on the beach tried to tell me it was just another dolphin; but I knew what I saw," he said.

    Although the incident happened on October 30, the swimmers have only just spoken of their rescue.

    Ingrid Visser, of Orca Research, an environmental group, said the dolphins' behaviour was understandable, as they attack sharks to protect themselves and their young, and similar incidents had been reported round the world. "They could have sensed the danger to the swimmers, and taken action to protect them," she said.

    I dont eat Dolphins, but chickens and lobsters have never saved me from harms way, so they get a trip to the frying pan.

    Poor Pinchy...

    BTW, did y'all hear about Whole foods no longer selling Live Lobster? Oh, they'll still sell frozen lobster, but no one likes seeing the cute little lobsters in their tank...

    Give me a break. I love dogs to death, but if they were on the menu, I'd try it.

    Nor would I let anyone eat anybody's pet. But in some parts of the world, dogs aren't pets.
