These guys make us tree huggers look bad...


...I used to be in this group...well, not physically in the boat, but I sent my money in. Unfortunately, they are a bit of a radical group. Expecting people to get in between whaling ships and the whales...

...I don't like whaling. No way to do it quickly and painlessly. From what I've heard, they don't use the whole whale, either. Now it seems too much like fur farming. Unless you use the whole animal, it just ain't right. Beware of these idiots. They only bring negative attention to their cause, and no one wants to work with you then. Like PETA. Scary.

...an example of "good intentions.." we have what is called an animal shelter here. Good intentions, and I guess they do the job, yet sometime thy get too intense. Some people are refused an animal because of yard size and such, yet since it's a no kill shelter, they prefer the creature sits in a cage all the time.

...one day they had a kitten that was DYING (key word here) from something that, if caught in time might have been curable (I'm sorry, don't remember what it was exactly), but for this poor thing, it was too late. It was suffering as it died, yet these so-called board members of the animal shelter wanted to make sure which was better, to put it down, or try and cure it. No one would take the responsibility...then they'd be known as no kill-kill shelter, I guess. Certainly not humane. So this kitten died slowly and painfully while these morons argued over who would put it to sleep.

...so you see, I join Ducks Unlimited every year and the National Wildlife Federation when I can. And, of course theres the strays I tend to take in...

...hey, I'm a sucker...
