I checked the search bar and didn't see any threads like this one but it might have already been done.
I hate P.E.T.A. from the stories I heard about them as well as almost everyone on the Escapists. (It'll be hard to deny this fact by the amount of hate thrown at them in threads). But I have to ask, have anyone seen a P.E.T.A member? There is a whole load of propaganda thrown about them but when I read the threads about them on the escapist I never read anything about any of us encountering any of them.

Not that I know of.

P.E.T.A. seem to be like The Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They have these massive shows / publicity stunts, but you never actually meet a fan / member.

I met one from New Zealand, which surprised me in Australia (i didn't know there were any down here). Was an arrogant, self-righteous dick spouting pompous rhetoric from a street corner in Darling Harbour (Sydney). Ended up 'being asked to leave' after he began abusing meat-eaters in a nearby cafe. I don't like them.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. They're your standard "Don't hurt the animals, we love them" group, but they actually kill more than they save. And they have incredibly stupid publicity stunts, gathering hate from much of the world as well as being incredibly hypocritical in their actions.

Famous stunts include:
  • Throwing blood at fashion models wearing fur.
    Asking The Pet Shop Boys to change their name to The Rescue Shelter Boys
    Wanting fish to be renamed "Sea Kittens" to stop people eating them.
    Sending Barack Obama a fly trap.
    And many more...

I'll say the same thing I said for the last PETA thread I answered to. I don't care if they stop people from killing animals for no reason. Or causing them unnecessary pain... but quit your fucking bitching about my food. I want to eat steak! Let me eat my fucking steak!

Though no, never met one.

Yes, it has. Quite recently by myself and PurpleRain.
But anyway, no. Almost no one has seen a member. Look here for people's opinions on P.E.T.A.
....awww...it's been erasified...

Never met anyone even close to a PETA member.
Closest ive met is a Sea Shepard, something to do with whales.

I think they are a myth, like unicorns.

Hm. So no one's ever seen a PETA member, a Red Hot Chilli Peppers or a unicorn?

The plot thickens...
Actually, I'm a fan of Red Hot Chilli Peppers....

But no, I've never met a member of PETA. But that's not saying much, I've lived a very sheltered life.

I am also a fan, although I am afraid not a unicorn. I haven't met a PETA member/fan yet though, I would like to.

Just like Red Hot Chilli Peppers fans...

Coincidence? I think not.
...?

Loads of my friends unfortunate aquaintances are Red Hot Chilli Pepper fans.

Not that I actually pay attention to what they say.

It usually amounts to little more than: This girl is hot. Lets go bone her.
