http://www.peta.org/cooking-mama/index.asp I only have one thing to say, and this is: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: EDIT: I loved Majesco's PR response to PETA propaganda game: http://gonintendo.com/?p=63590 Maybe PETA should do some actual research on the game before going on a crusade against it.
I've got a question, since they don't own the Cooking Mama license, couldn't they get sued for false advertising or whatever? I doubt this will stay up for long, and when it gets taken down by Nintendo or whatever, that will make them just as angry and ornery as they've always been. EDIT: Well, the whole thing is propaganda. Notice how the Turkey looks all gross and shit even when its fully cooked. YEAH THEY REALLY DO HAVE BLOOD, VEINS, AND FEATHERS EVERYWHERE WHEN THOROUGHLY COOKED.
I'm all for treating animals better and that is a noble cause. However animals surve a purpose. Clothing, food, medicine. To expect each wild animal to live the luxury of our pets is unreasonable and is a WASTE of resources. We can't even say we are able to ensure all children of the world are treated well. Nor can we say all the children of the world are all clothed,fed and given the proper medicine. When every child of the world is taken care of and all the diseases are cured and we are all fed and clothed then come back to us.....nahh I'll still want my turkey dinner even if I have to hunt it down and gut it myself.
Here's another game I found. Why does PETA hate Nintendo? http://www.kentuckyfriedcruelty.com/superchicksisters/index.asp EDIT: This was being discussed elsewhere on another forum, they also linked to Penn and Tellers video on PETA. My god, that video was terrifying. To me it sounds like the ALF (Animal Liberation front) would firebomb your house just because you had a pet dog or ate meat. Which is even scarier, WHY WERE THESE LUNATICS ALLOWED TO TALK TO KIDS IN MIDDLE SCHOOLS AND HIGH SCHOOLS??? Seriously, one of them showed a class how to make a molotov cocktail using a milk jug (ironic, huh, a MILK jug) and filling it with Gasoline. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9ijLulwUTY&watch_response I laughed when Penn said "Is there a definition for FUCKING BIG....ASS hypocrite?"
My only problem with the whole "Eco Terrorist" thing is that some people equate ALF and Peta to actual real terrorists, which is B.S. Peta throws animal blood and flour on rich celebrities that wear fur coats. A pretty big difference between that and suicide bombing an Israeli disco. ALF has been known to engage in acts of arson and do things like boobytrap trees, but mainly thier "terrorist" activities are restricted to vandalisim and such. However thier acts of violence are directed towards property, unlike real terrorists like Al Queda who are interested in killing large numbers of civilians. Another major difference is that the people who actually engage in illegal acts are quickly denounced by the ALF (at least publically that is.) Just bothers me, that politicians use "eco terrorists" to enact stricter laws to control freedom of speech and assembly, when really there is no need for special legislation. If an ALF guy goes out and firebombs a lot full of SUVs the regular police can handle the situation, no need to call in the army and throw the guy in Guantanamo bay.
I consider throwing jugs of gasoline onto buildings and igniting them to be an act of terrorism. They aren't trying to make friends, otherwise they'd call it friendlyism.
On a lighter, less terrifying note... to play as Pam in the Chicken Nugget Mario clone the password is "gopam!", and from a design stand point these are quite well done.
I fucking hate PETA. Everything about the way PETA Members work is just disgusting to me. Vegetarian, fine with me. Love meat, fine with me. But please, dont tell others how to live their life. Just like people shoving Christianity down my throat, Worry about your own life, damn. For every animal you don't eat, I'm going to eat three.
Yep, terrorism is not technically about killing people (thats genocide BTW) but the use of terror (which can be any of the 2 zillion things that scare people) as a way to coerce a group, community or organization into doing something they disagree with. Therefore, scaring kids with blood and torching SUVs is terrorism, since those wackos want to force everybody to do what they say. As for me, I like meat, but killing dogs? not really... We should make a club, srly
Well put. Heh, I have that shirt. I've had a few compliments about it from various members of the public, but so-far no complaints.
I sometimes wonder if that woman who founded PETA, Inkirk or however you spell it, did it just to line her pockets.
I hear the PETA president is hiding in a cave in northern Pakistan but don't fear as long as he is on the move he can't harm anyone. The organization is in shambles but every so often they manage to sneak a new video out on the net.
