[QUOTE="muttmeister, post: 298988, member: 135"] Well, I'm an animal rights person but I agree that PETA has a history of going too far. But as somebody who's a vegetarian (most of the time) and a little overweight besides, I didn't find the ad as offensive as you all did. I actually thought it was kind of funny. And on the Michael Vick thing: we all know he's a jerk BUT I do believe in second chances. He served his time; he says he's remorseful. Yes, I doubt his sincerity but I have screwed up royally a few times myself and I'd hate to think I was going to be banned from the world forever with no way to redeem myself. Maybe he learned a lesson; maybe not, but I suspect a lot of other people learned from the incident. I'm willing to let him have his chance and see what happens. If he's like a lot of other jocks, he'll end up in trouble again anyway, but if not, more power to him. [/QUOTE]
