Ok so we don't team up with PETA as an organization...we start another, more sensible organization. Not all PETA supporters are vegetarians, or off the wall freaks. I would venture to guess that the majority of the members are just like you and me. It's just that they have nowhere else to turn. If a more rational outlet was made available, I'm nearly certain they would utilize it.
My aunt was a huge supporter of PETA before she passed away. So much so that she gave all her money in her will to PETA. She ate meat, in fact she loved a good steak. PETA is flawed, and many PETA supporters know this. If a more sensable organization can be constructed, I am willing to bet that the majority would follow it.
We are in the adolescent stages of animal rights right now in history. 50 years ago nobody gave it a second thought. And believe me it is gonna grow. Now is a great time for a new organization to be born, so that the majority can get what they want, and that is an end to the senseless and needless suffering of animals.
