Too Extreme

What does that mean, exactly? Too extreme for what? An animal who is still alive, screaming in pain while they are skinned for fur…that’stoo extreme. Protesting against that cruelty is not extreme. It’s decent.

Speaking out against wrongdoing is hard. It takes guts and dedication. It takes compassion and a really big heart. It’s extreme, I guess…extremely wonderful.

“PETA is too extreme.” “PETA is a terrorist organization.” Think about this for a minute. PETA is a legal non-profit organization, one of the best known charities in the world. Everything we do is magnified, televised, watched, complimented, insulted and nit-picked almost to death. Do you really think that if PETA had any sort of illegalanything, we would still be going full-steam ahead like we are? We’re a registered charity. We’ve got a kick-*** human resources department, legal department, and finance department. Every penny has to be accounted for. We get audited all the time. We’re examined under a microscope.

When the government finds a charity doing something wrong, they punish the charity. PETA, however, has never been punished. That’s because we haven’t done anything wrong. Period, end of story.

Unless you count the KFC Movie Trailers. I know they’re clever and well-done, and they’ve made people go veg (yay!), but they give me the creeps. Especially the crack house one…yuck!
