Default Some people have nothing better to do.

This is the first stupidest news I've heard for this year.

http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/01/10/maine.lob...ated/index.html

My focus is not on how amazing this lobster is, but on the customers who supposedly reported it. Not to mention the justification from the PETA to release it.

Try to follow the logic with me. Two people went into a "seafood" restaurant with the intention of having "seafood" for dinner saw this lobster in a tank and then reported it to the PETA because they feel that its wrong. And then, PETA said that lobster should not be held in tanks for it to be cooked later for us poor bastard to consume. That they demand, request or however you want to say it.....for this lobster to be release. But for the rest of the regular lobsters in the tank.....well...sorry, they're SOL. I guess they are not fat enough for the PETA to care about. Have I lost you yet?

This has no merit in it what-so-ever, let alone being hypocritical. This is like vegetarian going into a "meat" serving restaurants and causing trouble. Which brings me to another point. Don't get me wrong, vegetarians. I respect your belief, but in return....try to respect ours...or mine at the very least. Don't force this opinion on us. You're lucky that I haven't had the time to start up a IRVO. International Rights for Vegetables Organization. You're lucky that I don't argue the point that vegetarians are eating this worlds solution to our ozone stability. The very simple thing that gives us...air!

Amen.

CNN
Shedding the tight confines of his old restaurant display tank, George was driven to Maine by PETA members and was returned to his natural habitat on the ocean floor Saturday, the organization said...
...later they learned that George the Lobster was instanly killed once he was eaten by Bill the Cod.



Geezus...I support some of PETA's actions...but some of them are simply dumb and serve little purpose.

it's the natural way of the world for humans to eat animals. PETA needs to get a clue.

I had the same thought. But my article would end with "....and later to be caught again eaten/cooked by another restaurant.

And don't forget, the 2 customers are just as being stupid as the PETA. They need to get some of this heat.

The other argument is that they are eating the unborn offspring of the plant as many vegitables are seeds.
