I've used this same rant when describing PETA on every occassion when they're brought up. Total Redundancy, but totally worthwhile in explaining how these guys manage to **** up everything they accomplish-

I watch a PETA documentary on how they exposed the many bad, unethical, and unsanitary methods that were used in a slaughter house. It was really good how they exposed this particular slaughter house for all the violations they commited. Their solution?

Do you think it would be "don't buy meat from companies that use this slaughter house"?
Do you think it would be, "write your govt. inspector to get that place shut down"?
Do you think it would be "write the meat companies and stores that use that particular slaughter house for their meat products, and encourage them to quit doing business with the slaughter house"?

All of the above should've been the above responses to the violations committed in that slaughter house. And hopefully, that's what PETA did do. But! They didn't say that's what they did. They just offered 1 solution-

DON'T EAT MEAT.

Are you kidding? That's where they lose people as quick as they reel people in. They did such a great job exposing this slaughter house for it's many violations. That's a great cause too. BUT THEIR SOLUTIONS ARE DOWNRIGHT NUTTY! They lose any shred of credibility anytime they do this too. Idiots.

They were crying for these same animal cruelty messages when Barbaro had his injury too. The night Roy and Gretchen Jackson were on Larry King Live, they had the PETA people on right after... They need a P.R. person to help them focus on the good things they do, like exposing wrong-doings, but they also need a buffer person to tell them "they're nuts" and to "shut up" when they try to cross the line agin and again.
