The problems pointed out in that clip (which i think is only good for the first 20 seconds or so...) can be resolved by means other than their suggestion of not ever eating meat. Actually, going vegetarian makes you irrelevant to the meat industry because you are not a customer.
: Exactly. Which is why PETA will never be as successful as they could be in eliminating animal cruelty. They have alienated all the meat-eaters who might support their cause by proposing vegetarianism as the only solution (identifying meat-eaters as the root of the problem).
Yeah this problem is nawing at me also. The tendoncy is to rip apart the very people PETA should be working with jointly.
