PETA Dumps on Battlefield 3

Shooting attack dogs in WaW is fine, but I think actively stabbing a small rodent with a combat knife and tossing it aside like a dirty shirt is a bit excessive.
Most vegetarians and pro-animal rights people I know hate peta.
This is because peta is a group of reactionary idiots who need to stop getting pissy at everything that includes a non-human in it and go away.
I feel like this consensus was reached long ago.

Did we hear any anti Angry Birds talk from them?
So I'm the type of person who should love PETA. I'm a vegy, don't use cosmetics tested on animals and support animal rights.
I should be behind them, but I'm not because doing stuff like this is the hieght of dumb. Am I offended by killing animals in games? No, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT REAL...
The same way I am not offended killing humans. So they are idiots who are doing more harm than good to animal rights and turning it into a joke.
The thing is that after reading through 4 pages of the this thread no-one else seems to have explained that said animals being imaginary is the only reason why PETA's response are idiotic (as far as I have seen). In the same way killing humans in real life for fun is unacceptable, so is killing animals. Most in this thread don't seem to be communicating that, which is very disappointing....
As for PETA, maybe when they have solved all of the real world abuse they can go after virtual abuse.

I'm so glad they weren't concerned with drinking rat blood in Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines.
Or shooting birds in Red Dead Redemption. Or maybe eating snakes in MGS3!
PETA are just attention whores.

yeah, your post made me laugh. truly it is a good bit more fun to just roll with things. but this isn't fun stupid, this is just stupid stupid. seeing my brother fail the qte though was kinda funny, who would've guessed a rat biting your finger could get you killed by massive brain damage and lung punctures (much faster than rabies would as well!).Sober Thal said:You actually stab a rat with a combat knife in the back and then lift it by the tail, then cast it's dead body aside like trash?!
I'm outraged! I will never give EA my money again! Who do they think they are, acting like Gods handing out judgement on natures love rodent?! I'm appalled this hasn't been brought up sooner, I know many people who never would have bought the game if they knew such outright evil was inside this game! I'm writing to EA after I'm done here, and he will know the power of my anger! The consequences will never be the same!
VIVA LA RATA! VIVA LA RATA!!
This is a call to arms for our poor defenseless critter brothers! They CANNOT get away with this! I won't let them! WE WON'T LET THEM!!
*Runs out of the room screaming
EDIT: It's much more fun to just 'go with it' sometimes ; )
and also, minor spanish vocabulary thing there... oh wait, i was thinking mouse. nevermind. (for those that are curious, la Rata means rat in spanish (as you probably figured out), while el Raton (with an accent over the o, which i dont know how to do in typing), means mouse. be careful not to confuse the two, especially when referring to the computer device used to navigate the cursor over the screen. that would be quite silly)
You could do the same damn thing in Metal Gear Solid 3, except you could also eat it . Granted, Snake didn't seem to like the way rat tasted. You could maybe saute it's brain. I've had squirrel brains (what some North Americans would refer to as 'good vittles') and they're like tough, tasty fruit.
Here's an idea: An unlockable if you pre-ordered. A fork equipped on the bottom of the knife's handle so you can flip it around and eat the fucking rat, assuming the verminous little bastard isn't carrying bubonic plague or some more modern epidemic such as Hanta virus. There's not giving a shit about human death, and then there's championing diseased rodents while simultaneously and un-ironically caring very little about a soldier stepping on a landmine and then needing to have his leg sawed off while you press X to get it through his cartilage and bone, blood all over the screen and screaming.
Let's face it, PETA makes all vegetarians look like they're some kind of druidic animal worshipers, when many are in fact not. Evolution on some scale determines when a species eventually falls out of the chain. . As things are now, the only universal thread rats and other rodents preserve is food for large birds of prey. And even then, such avian species do not poop out a nutrient-rich fertilizer that grows crop better. At one point New Zealand farmers raised a slaughter of the stoat, a tiny weasel mustelid known for wrecking havoc on not only the dwindling kiwi population, but bird species in general. Mustelines are the more clever, war-like cousin of rodents... hunting for youngling eggs, and rabbits. If there are 10 rabbits in an area that a single weasel moves into, they will be dead before winter. Killing a rat---an equally prolific pest--in no way unbalances the circle of life, fools at PETA.
