Is PETA billboard idea over the top?

    And even this blog, from the extremely liberal Miami New Times, rips PETA a new one:

    So those of you who think Fox News has some kind of agenda in this instance can shut the pie holes.

    No, but I consider animals as things that live on land, not in the sea. To me a dog or a zebra is different than a perch or a trout.

    They're all still animals. Just different kinds of animals. You apparently actually failed science.

    Fish are not meat on Fridays during Lent.

    I will stop eating fish so I can help put an end to shark attacks.

    Whatever you think of PETA they know how to attract attention.

    It could work!

    If the commercial fishing industry dries up, there will be plenty of fish in the sea.

    Surfers don't look so tasty when there's a mackerel in front of your nose.

    But if the sharks go vegan as well, they may eat up all the seaweed. No more California rolls!

    If we outlaw eating animals, only outlaws will eat animals.

    Animal kingdom includes vertebrates.
    Vertebrates include fishes, sharks and rays. I checked. Couldn't find lawyers in there anywhere ...

    PETA = Westboro Baptist Church.
