This is the problem with PETA. Their basic message is great, and it's very important. They just fuck it up with lame shit like this, and fewer people will take them seriously. PETA's work has revealed the harsh world of factory farming to alot of people who otherwise would be clueless, and that's something they deserve alot of credit for. However, when they start in with the red paint throwing, publicity stunts, and comparing factory farming to the Holocaust, they undermine their own credibility with the very people they exist to convince.

I'm a vegetarian because of PETA, and I like what they stand for. I just wish they could be more like the Humane Society in the way they carry themselves.
