It seems PETA activists are going crazy over nutty things, in this case of real absurdity PETA asks a school to change its name.
The activist animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has asked school officials to change the name of Spearfish High School to “Sea Kitten High School.” The new name would “reflect the gentle nature of its current marine namesake,” the organization said in a letter to Steve Morford, Spearfish High School principal.
PETA said the letter is part of a new Sea Kitten campaign aimed at children.
If children were taught to refer to fish as “sea kittens,” reflecting that fish, like cats and dogs, are “individuals” that “do have friendships,” fewer fish might be killed for food or sport, said Pulin Modi, a PETA spokesman.
“We want people to realize that more fish are killed each year than all animals combined,” he said. “They don’t have the sympathy of more popular animals like cats and dogs.”
Morford said he did not want to share his feelings about PETA. “Obviously, it’s nothing we’re taking seriously,” he said.
I bet sea kittens would taste delicious.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL ha ha ha ha ha sea kittens, what a riot. I bet they would be delicious or how about this . . . . . save a cow, eat PETA members. This is too much it reminds me of when they wanted Wyoming to change the bucking bronc on its license plate because the picture was inhumane . . . . .come on what a bunch of idiots.
A spearfish is a type of fish. These retard PETA people have a type of fish confused with the act of spear fishing.
I love sea kittens – taste just like chicken!!
