PETA 'Payback Is Hell' ad aimed at Florida shark attack victim causing feeding frenzy of outrage

Perhaps PETA should worry less about shark attack victims and worry more about why their euthanasia rate is so high.

They're right (except for the deserve part). I don't understand why humans get all bent out of shape when animals do what animals do. We go on killing sprees to avenge against animals to avenge the death of people who risk their own lives by entering the animal's domain. I'm 46 years old I've never been attacked by a shark on land.

Sharks eat mammals and we are mammals. Humans kill millions of sharks a year (some just for their fins) and sharks kill less than 30 humans a year. Which species should really live in fear of the other?

I don't agree with PETA on many things, but on this one, I think they have a point but it was lost in the delivery (as usual).

Once upon a time, PETA was a wonderful organization. Now, of course, they're ludicrous and nothing but a joke. This is what happens when they let the loons run the asylum. I love animals, and donate to animal welfare organizations, as long as they have absolutely nothing to do with PETA. Just knowing PETA is involved in something basically means animals will be destroyed in lieu of finding them good homes like other animal welfare organizations. Therefore, I refuse to give a penny to PETA.

Hypocrisy at it's finest.

While some of PETA's aims may be worthwhile...PETA has itself amassed a rather significant reputation for violence and subversion of a species...the HUMAN RACE...in pursuit of its goals.

And, all the PETA advocates I know are intellectually immature or plainly lacking and seem to be driven by pure emotion lacking any significant knowledge of biosphere, ecosystem, plant and animal studies, etc. Pure ideology and no underpinning smacks of extremism. And the US does NOT need more of THAT!

The shark was doing what sharks sometimes do. So was the human. It turned out bad for the human. That's a tragedy...and NOT a reason to celibrate for any normal human being.

May the gas used to burn down any sign it gets put up on be obtained at a decent price!
