Federal judge considers dismissing PETA's "slavery" suit against SeaWorld

And farmers everywhere breathe a sigh of relief. Animal slaves? PETA is really making a mockery of themselves these days.

I find it outright offensive to compare it to the reason the amendment was passed in the first place. It trivializes a dark part of our history and the century of civil rights struggle since that time.

I was going to avoid that part of the discussion all together. But, I totally agree with you. I know some people who would not want to be compared with an orca.

The answer is found in the name of their own organization: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Animals are not people. Next case.

Why do these lawsuits even make it into a courtroom?

And the stories of real slavery and human trafficking going on around the world get buried further under crap like this.

Here's a suggestion-- why doesn't somebody open PETA-world? People could pay to watch those ass clowns do tricks in a pool. Out of respect for their cause, they'll be rewarded with alfalfa sprouts instead of a fish. Oh wait, don't vegetables feel pain too when they're yanked and cut?

Spoken like a true fruitarian...

How much time do you spend yanking your veggies?

That's kind of a personal question, don't you think? ;)
