PETA, the people who euthanized over 95% of the animals placed in the care of their facility in Norfolk, VA now wants to stop the fishmonger’s a Seattle Pike Place fish market from throwing dead fish because it “is disrespectful to creatures that already have gone through a lot” according to an article in the Los Angeles Times.

So, I’m totally down with not abusing animals that are kept as pets. People who do that deserve all the ugliness life can throw at them but when you become a fanatic about things your sense of proportion goes out the window. Thus it is with PETA. Seriously. Disrespectful to dead fish? I don’t get it but maybe that’s because I’m an unrepentent omnivore. Whatever.
