Answer 1

This is disgusting.  I hope that the family of the victim sues the pants of off PETA, I love animals as much as the next guy and I think that they should have rights too, but comparing a tragedy of a human being to that of an animal that is used for food is just downright vile.  They are blatantly disregarding the feelings of the family and are definitely taking it too far.

Human life IS more precious than animal life, that man had a family, a career, a whole world, it's just disturbing to compare the two on a level such as this.

I agree with you, it is infuriating, WAY TOO FAR with this one!

Answer 2

its awful... wrong and just discusting PEDA shouldnt exploit that horrible awful murder. And It leaves me speachless that they would even think that in anyway that was appropriate. The man who was killed died in a tragic horrable way and his family has to live with it and for peda to put out an animal abuse add like that is vile and I hope that this is the last straw something needs to be done.  

Answer 3

Peta is responsible for a large number of animal deaths.  What do you think happens to all those animals that have never been in the wild and PETA sets them free.

Answer 4

What a bunch of sick f***s!!!

That is the most vile thing I have heard in a LONG time. The family of the murdered man should sue PETA's behind!

If you still think PETA is for the good of animals you need your head examined.

Answer 5

PETA is right

that man must of being in horror getting his head cut off

and the animals feel that too

peta is right to bring that up and goes one step better by conpering it.

hopefully now you meat eatters will stop

Answer 6

PETA is slime.  Unfortunately, there is no penalty for being slime; one could well wish that it were otherwise.

Answer 7

PETA has a history of using shocking tactics to get their point across.  while you may think this is taking it too far, their point is that there shouldn't be a difference between slaughtering animals, whether it be humans or non-humans.  i agree this is pretty insensitive to the victims family and friends, however, it certainly is an interesting point.

Answer 8

PETA is not pro-animal, but Anti-people.

Did you know they kill about 1500-2000 animals a year? (in 2000 they bought two large walk in freezers, the only purpose for which is holding dead animals)

Did you know that instead of adopting animals from kill-shelters they protest them for existing? why not give them money so they can keep the animals alive. NOOO that would actually help matters.

Answer 9

I am all for animal rights, but PETA is so radical. I think the ad is tasteless and very inappropriate. I feel really sorry for the family of the victim. Wake up PETA if you want people to support you then don't be such senseless jerks!! I agree with you.

Answer 10

Well i am a true animal lover but I love my fellow humans more and have and will always think PETA and every thing they stand for is bull-c**p. First of all Ingrad N (whatever her last name is) is one sick freak with no life but she sure knows how to get attention. Which is the point right? Secondly they run off of doantions yet they are rich. Hmm... I wonder why? I have not seen that article until now and it sickens me that they are exploiting a murdered man and comparing him to a farm animal. They are lucky he is not my family because I would have to get a laywer and dip into some of their money. Even though it wouldn't matter. Whats done is done.

EDIT: like i said before whats done is done. Even if they are forced to pull the ad it has already been seen and I am sure the family has seen it. There is no stopping it. They have rights too and freedom of speech. The only think is to get peole to relize that they are wrong and in no way an organization that has changed anything. Animal's will never have rights in the US even though they should be treated a little more humane. And PETA kills animal's every day and they do not support the ASACP which is a great organization which does help animals everyday. Also most people do not know that Ingrid the founder takes diabetes medication which is tested on animals. Shame on her. what a f-ing hypocrite.

There is a docomentry on Showtime that reveals the truth about PETA.

Answer 11

First, I am an animal lover, BUT...

No where in the constitution does it say that animals have rights.

Ask an Ag professor and he will say the same thing.

I will agree that some animals are not treated right when they are slaughtered for meat.....BUT  PETA takes things to an extreme. I don't agree with their methodoligy.

Answer 12

I fully support PETA i think there ad is smart. A true animal lover like myself would understand how crual and vile humans are. I love animals. Much more than humans. I despise people who are cruel. you know animals can feel pain as much as we dfo they just can't speak. they are woneful creatures. I love all animals with all my heart and nothing in the world will ever change that. No PETA hasnt gone to far WE have!!
