Hey, folks, want to see how a member of PETA responds to people's anger over their ad?

Click here to go to a topic on their message board.

I'm in there as "prairiecrow", and tried to explain the emotional response of many non-PETA members to the ad as clearly and as civilly as I could. I mentioned the fact that PETA has made some enemies by using the death of Tim McLean to further their agenda. And one PETA member's response was:

Perhaps PETA is trying to target sensible and logical people instead of those with anger issues.

So I thanked him for confirming the opinions about PETA that I had come to the website hoping to have dispelled. His further response:

The people who are outraged and fuming about this are not the kind of people who can look at the ad and see it for what it is - they are the kind of people who cannot see beyond their emotions. If you value human life over non-human life, that's your choice. You can't expect people who value the lives of all animals equally to stop - and that is exactly what you are asking for.

Really? And where does the "valuing" of the anguish of the family and friends of Tim McLean come into it?

Further responses on the thread have cemented my opinion: Many PETA members are walking examples of "depraved indifference", and are willfully blind to any harm that they cause.

I'm done with them, at least in terms of trying to talk to them. But if I ever hear about any PETA event in my city, I'm going to network with other people and do my level best to disrupt it and/or stop it. These people are genuinely dangerous and hateful toward human beings. There is a level of psychopathy in most of the responses I saw on their forum that frankly terrifies me.
