Fishing Forum

I'm really starting to wonder about this group. First cartoons and little kid games (Sea Kittens), now this? Maybe they really aren't too serious about their campaign, after all?
Saw this news article on MSN this morning...

We have a lot of sympathy for the cause that the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals seek to promote. We don’t have much sympathy for their increasingly goofy attention-seeking antics.
The latest dustup the animal rights nonprofit has created involves their attempt to get NBC to air a completely inappropriate ad during the Super Bowl, and then to complain when the network rejected the softcore porn.
The ad, featuring women in bras and panties getting extremely busy with some vegetables, was rejected after NBC deemed the content too racy, according to an e-mail from NBC that PETA made available to msnbc.com. A network spokesman did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

Kind of a wierd commercial for PETA, but of course it won't get aired, but of course I would have had to watch it. [shocked]

[pirate]Whats the point? Oh lets show some woman getting funky with a vegetable. I have to say thats not only immoral but that just lowers the reputation of PETA.

Don't get me wrong I support free speech and that includes the allowing of whatever speech is on television. I hate censorship especially in this country—period.

But for families watching football games or whatever that sets a bad example.

It's simple. If God did not want us to eat animals he would not have made them out of meat.

ROTFLMAO!!!
No kiddin'!

I've always said that if I couldn't eat meat, I'd die. When I started taking Warfarin (Coumadin), and told I couldn't have liver ever again, I was devastated [frown]
Ironically, they said I could still eat lamb...which has the exact same amount of vitamin K as liver, according to the USDA website. Oh well.

Hey! I just saw an advertisement about it, on this site! That's weird, just as I was replying to this topic, too.

For those of you with ad blockers, here it is if you wanna go see it
