Fish can feel pain, but not necessarily like mammals, or in the same areas.If a fish's (say a largemouth bass) mouth were as sensitive to pain as that of a cat or a dog they could not eat their favorite prey items such as crayfish, sunfish or hellgramites. Crayfish and hellgramites bite back and if anyone has ever caught the tip of a sunfish's dorsal ray you know how sharp they are.
Peta disgust me for a variety of reasons, the way they try to brainwash people and full them ful of bullsh*t information being two big reasons to hate these people.
Currently they are distributing comic books :

It's titled "you're daddy kills animals". It tries to convince children that they should disuade their fathers from fishing by telling them things such as," Until your daddy learns that it's not fun to kill keep your doggies and kitties away from him. He's so jooked on killing defenseless animals that they could be next!"
F*ckin' brutal.
How fish feel pain is not really important, to be honest. I was making a comment about the people who claim to be vegetarinas but eat fish and chicken.
Vegetarans are all for not harming any beings - fish is a living, breathing being. How it feels pain is unimportant as it feels it one way or the other.
As for PETA themselves, i dont appreciate people forecefully getting their opinion and point of view on people like they do. Children should make their own choice if they want to eat meat or not.
That is pure propaganda.
Holy Crap !
Anyone seen what goes on in China and how they 'kill' animals for their FUR ? It was on SkyNEWS today. The reporters were held for 10 days by the police who demanded their tapes showing animals in cages, being dragged out and shocked through their body leaving them convulsing and some were even skinned alive as the shock did not kill them.
There was actually an animal that was skinned alive and its heart could still be seen beating !
Thats outrageous !

No thats a good lesson for you! Always ALWAYS use low lvls of electricity to overload the heart and to not damage the fur..........man common knowledge....seriously. 😈

Sorry for the bump but this is pretty interesting. I only was against PETA becasue they are taking human rights away from doing things like medications and giving us life with meat from animals. But this is crazy. I present to you
Penn and teller
BULLSHIT

PETA is a stupid, hypocritical and idiotic organization. They are an evil corperation who support terrorists and criminals. They are nazious in nature and rely heavily on lies and rhetoric to get their point across. They are dangerous and should be avoided/destroyed at all costs. Next time you see a PETA rally be sure to throw some animal blood on them.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
