PETA Protests Pike Place Market in Seattle
PETA has brought forth yet another nonsensical, boring protest. This time for fish.
Pike Place is a popular fish market in Seattle and also the subject of the book “Go Fish!” which outlines some of the basic principles of the company (a nice, quick read by the way). Pike Place fish market is known for its success and highly energetic ambiance, which includes shouts and throwing fish around the room.
Well, that doesn’t sit well with PETA, tossing around of fish and probably going to be eaten by a hungry meat eater who enjoys the taste of the Sea’s finest culinary delights. Sort of a “putting yourself in fish shoes” kind of thinking, I suppose. By the way, speaking of kittens and throwing, ever toss a cat? I mean high, like at least 20 ft in the air? They will always land on their feet. Awesome.
Even better is that this event they’re protesting is filled with the most educated people who actually care about animals – they’re protesting the American Veterinary Medical Association by rolling around on the asphalt topless dressed as fish and holding signs “AVMA Supports Pain”.
