I signed I hate that group with every fiber of my being.

I know it's not nice to hate like that but man they are idiots.

I disagree with PETA as much as anyone else, but I do respect their right to believe what they want to believe. Gun activists are seen equally nuts by animal activists as animal activists look to gun activists.

PROLIFE has members who assinate doctors. Why don't we sign a petition to do away with their status as well - it's because some of you support them.

The bottom line is the laws being violated are mostly either caused by individuals or local chapters or are exagerated by conservative media or special interest groups.


I am against PETA, but their tax free status should remain in my opinion.

PBR you may want to rethink your position on this issue.

So you support their right to espouse domestic terrorism to achive their goals?

Pro life is an opinion or state of mind. It is not a tax-exempt organization like PETA. Therefore you can't take that away.

Maybe you should listen to this statement by PETA vegetarian campaign director Bruce Friedrich.

Have you ever heard of the Animal Liberation Front? PETA is entwined with them also.

They do have freedom of speech rights but IMO have gone beyond those freedoms.

Because one guy says something and a few people actually listen does not mean the organization is full of terrorists. Besides, the guy in your media player was about to **** himself as he was talking...
and yea, prolife is not a tax-free organization but it is organized and thus could be just as dangerous...as it has proved. You can not make a particular stance illegal just because
1. a few make the group look bad
2. you disagree with them.


the fact is if a petition read simply
"PETA is group of animal activists and they should not have a tax free status"
There are countless numbers of gun owners who would sign such a ridiculas piece of paper.

My point is how many people belonging to the NRA has openly said they would open their front door blazing away in a last burst of glory if the government knocked on their door to collect firearms if legislation was passed and supported by the general public (through who they vote for).
This has been typed on every single firearm forum I have ever been on...including right from the mouth of Heston. Now this is far more radical in tone and reaction. I dont' see any NRA members saying - whoa the NRA has gone too far on that one --- no they applaud it and want more. What's the difference? The difference is you (no one in particular nor anyone on these forums) agree with the NRA's general adgenda and oppose any organization to any extent possible who stand in the way.

I'm not talking about Heston because his statement was purly motivational - but when real people say this
1. They are either talking out of pure emotion or want to appear cocky
2. they would really do it.

If it's #2, the gun industry (at least on firearm forums on the internet and people I've met on the range) contains 1000 times more potential terrorists than the anti-gun agency.

Before we proceed, I would like to add I'm not arguing, slamming, or attacking anyone. I'm mearly offering this up for an reasonable and friendly debate.

No flames intended either. This is just some conversation over a few beers.

A member of a group esposuing illegal views is one thing, but the head of an organization is another. Domestic terrorism is terrorism. If they want to play by those rules, then my tax dollars shouldn't be giving them a pass. They should not have the luxury of tax exemption.

I'll have to pick up the rest tomorrow. Just got chicken off the grill and I'm hungry.

Be well.
