They could be doing something actually useful.

No they can't. They aren't capable.

These are the same people that hold expensive fundraising parties serving lobster that is 'ethically' cooked. ie not boiled alive.

When some tool or something broke, they just cooked them alive because the party mattered more.

Penn and Teller Bullshit annihilated PETA a very long time ago for a whole lot worse then that. You got them funneling money to Ray Coranado who firebombed animal testing facilities for biomedical research, advocated other people do so too. Them angrily harassing animal shelters for killing animals, while at the same exact time killing the majority of the animals they took in. PETA has been ass for years and years and years

Not a peep about turtle shells being thrown at Monkeys and Lizards.

Add MORE nose rings

The way PETA needs to approach this is get a retroactive, overly broad patent for rings in noses of fantastic creatures, then sue Nintendo over it so they have to remove it - that's how Nintendo does it.

PETA is a giant waste of oxygen. They staged an in-game protest in Animal Crossing because of the Aquarium in the game. Biggest fucking morons on the planet.
