Dirty Jobs' Mike Rowe on Lamb Castration, PETA, and American Labor

PETA = People Eating Tasty Animals

Oh Mike....he's my TV crush right now *sigh*....i love watching him do dirty things lol

would ya' fuck im'?

Mike Rowe is one of the most likable people I have ever seen. Excellent points, excellent speech.

no...you don't neutralize one extreme with another. Sure you can try but then what happens is you're not taken seriously because you're just as crazy as your opposition. If Peta wasn't around, we might actually see a legitimate group emerge in the void to take its place, which would be a good thing. We don't need extremes, we just need good common sense.

All I can say is that whether we like it or not PETA is a big name right now. And most people try to avoid their attention. If something happens to an animal, who else can we call? They're pretty much the only ones that anyone fears in the least (sure, we can ridicule them, but corporations do fear their extremism). Some small animal shelter or group has no power against a powerful meat company/anything, so like I said, in the least they provide a balance till we have better.

Nobody fears Peta, believe me. Ever heard of the boy that cried wolf? They call everything abusive to animals, so if they ever raise a concern nobody really pays attention, as usually it's something stupid. Peta is only concerned with promoting themselves, they don't go after the real serious cases, they go after what will get them press. It sounds like you're thinking of the humane society, they actually do real work. Peta are a bunch of clowns.

Whether they are only concerned with press, or don't go against real cases is irrelevant to their power. You're saying this like the masses follow the "real serious cases". As we all know people don't follow/listen to what is "right", mass media/press IS what most people go for, and therefore it grants them power.
The most powerful organizations ARE only concerned with themselves/are clowns. Sorry, but companies don't fear the humane society much, whereas PETA is a household name.

wtf. he castrated an animal. peta has a GIGANTIC campaign on animal birth control and shit.
can anyone say ,mixed messages?

Wow, what a storyteller. I wish I could narrate like that!
