PETA just love raining on other peoples' parades. Don't feel bad that they made fun of the southern accent...they don't equate anyone to being much if they have human blood pumping through them. Remember the "Holocaust on your Plate" ad campaign which equated jews to chickens? Yeah...
"Thrall refused to ban the slaughter of seals, despite multiple requests from the Alliance to do so, because Orgrimmar stands to make a large profit from the fur."
This is what I don't like about this group. Oh because you requested someone do something, they should just do it? It's hard for me to hate what PETA stands for, animals should not be brutally beaten, but it's there tactics that make anything they say fall on deaf ears with me.
If you want people to take you serious, then always be professional.
On that note, I will be eating steak tonight...thank you
@ogt462: PETA doesn't stand for humane killing or brutality of animals. It just wants animals to be immune from human interaction entirely. Yes, enjoy steaks... I like lamb chops myself <3
This is quite possibly the most assinine thing I have ever seen. That video in particular makes Canadians (or at least seal-hunting ones) seem like dumb rednecks, and though I don't support the seal hunt as it's depicted, PETA present an overly dramatic one-sided view of it.
And now they're doing it with ridiculous machinima? And a WoW demonstration? PLEASE. PETA have to be the most annoying group of people in existence.
@MarquisMark: It makes me laugh as a Canadian to see PETA, who are protesting the virtual seal hunt in World of Warcraft, depicting us as the dumb ones D:
I'm from Canada. And I don't see what the problem is with humane seal hunting. Especially if it's to control population. When people hunt other animal species, they also hunt the baby animals too. so it's not really any different. The clubbing a seal part is what bothers most people. And Canada has been doing it's best to keeping people from doing that. I wonder if PETA will mention how many baby animals they've slaughtered over the years.
@Spderweb: Peta are just crazy like that. They don't want you killing creatures that you have "no right to kill" in their eyes. Only other animals can kill other animals. They don't care about population control. Yes, it sounds crazy, but that's PETA for you, crazy. They are hypocrites.
What if your town became overpopulated with humans, would "humane murder" be your solution as well?
There are humane alternatives to wholesale slaughter for the "control" of the population of our fellow inhabitants of Earth, including trap/neuter/release and other methods that have proven successful in those who have tried them.
If your mother was the one being clubbed, I'm sure you could be pressed to come up with a humane solution as well.

I mean is that somehow better than doing it virtually? Of course not! But where will people release their pent up seal aggression?
I propose adding a "seal" soup in Cooking Mama to show them the error of their ways!
