I just feel that those that are too "extereme" in promoting any issue usually do more harm for their cause than good, and PETA seems to be experts at this. Dan, I know PETA does way more than i know, but if a third party did a survey I would be willing to bet that over 75% of males (American) between the ages of 20 to 40 have negative feelings towards PETA. This is a large and powerful group. Those negative feelings come from ads like this and the bad publicty your organization gets, whether responsible or not, from public protests.
