Guys like this will be the next target. Then fishing itself will be attacked by these idiots.

Local News | Peta vs. Pike Place fish-throwers | Seattle Times Newspaper — What is wrong with these people? We first discussed this here.

In an odd dispute between animal-rights activists and — of all people — veterinarians, “It’s “gloves off,” says PETA president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk. Members of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals plan to protest a fish-throwing demonstration from the employees of Pike Place Fish at the opening ceremony of The American Veterinary Medical Association’s annual convention, to be held July 11-14 in Seattle.

Here are the basics: PETA objected to the use of “their corpses used as toys” in a statement about the fish, and offered to send rubber replacements to the convention. Newkirk says PETA will “identify every vet who participates and carry the objection back to his/her hometown practice.”

This whole thing is beginning to sound like an extortion scheme.
