PETA Campaign Pitches Fish As Smart

That's it. I'm declaring war on PETA. These nincompoops have gone beyond the pale, and passed into the realm of moonbattery. Fish. Smart fish, no less.
"No one would ever put a hook through a dog's or cat's mouth," said Bruce Friedrich, PETA's director of vegan outreach. "Once people start to understand that fish, although they come in different packaging, are just as intelligent, they'll stop eating them."
Seriously, I keep thinking Comedy Central will come forward any time now and admit that this whole "PETA" thing has been a huge hoax, and we'll all have a good laugh, because NOBODY can be this ridiculous and still draw breath. Honestly.
"Fish are so misunderstood because they're so far removed from our daily lives," said Karin Robertson, 24, the Empathy Project manager and daughter of an Indiana fisheries biologist. "They're such interesting, fascinating individuals, yet they're so incredibly abused."
Idiots. Just for that, I'm killing and eating a farm animal this weekend. Moo.
