Be Kind To Animals
I'm no member of PETA. I enjoy a juicy steak as much as the next guy. Though not too juicy -- well done or not done at all, in this house. But I still think animals (even the ones we chew on) should be treated with some level of respect. I'm going to give you a couple of examples, though, that show not everyone agrees with me on this issue.
For instance, take chickens. Sure they are tasty, but by no means should they be slaves to our every whim. Slavery is a terrible injustice, even among poultry. At no time have I ever told a chicken to lay down, dance, or kill himself. Never. Nope, not me. Not even the subservient ones. That would be cruel.
And speaking of animal cruelty, have you seen the SportKa ad where the cat gets his head lopped off? It's the funni-- umm -- I mean the cruelest thing I've seen in a long time. Snopes has done an investigation of this hilari -- I mean horrific bit of commercialism run amok. I do recommend you check out the video via the "alternate location" at the bottom of that page so that you can be just as amu -- er, disgusted as I was.
