There goes any of the credibility PETA ever had... which wasn't much. PETA lost all credibility with me when they came out against fishing last year. There are so many battles that need to be fought when it comes to animal rights (the slaughter of seal pups in Canada, Japanese whaling, etc.) that wasting time on something like recreational fishing is completely foolish. I really think that their publicity stunts do more harm than good when it comes to animal rights. They are seen as a fringe group, which turns off a lot of people. I give money to groups like the World Wildlife Fund but PETA doesn't get anything from me.
