What do you all say? Do you feel bad when you dismember a live crab for bait, or when you fillet a fish still alive? Do you cover your ears so you don’t hear the tiny screams when you drop your live lobster in the pot?

I always tell the crabs that I am throwing into a boiling pot of water that it is a jacuzzi and not to be scared.

“Apathy is the Glove in Which Evil Slips It’s Hand”.

I tell keeper fish to relax as I’m taking them off the hook. “I have a nice, quiet, air-conditioned room waiting on you”, is what I say.

Those people don’t fish. Somebody should hand them a few crabs or lobsters with no rubber bands on their claws. We’ll see how quickly they smash one themselves.

I tell all the lobsters that I sell that they are going to a hot tub party!

I’m going to start asking my fiddler crabs to hold on to the hook the next time I go sheephead fishing so I don’t hurt them.

I just beat the hell out of all of them…i tell them its all David Cupka’s fault…

the peta police are gonna come get all yall!

now please excuse me while i keep my bow dialed in so i can arrow my 1st unguided wild hog :wink:

Next time I bring a pot of collards to a boil, I’m going to listen if they scream out in pain…

PETA… What a joke. I’d love to see a PETA member after not eating for a couple of weeks sit at a table with some prime-rib, fried pork chops, Lobster, Blackened Grouper, and some Sheppard’s pie say one word about how bad it is to eat meat.

You have got to be kidding me. Its a dang fish, not a person. What about all those Brussel sprouts they murder each year. Or all the helpless soy they kill for their veggie burgers. Why is it so wrong to kill a living thing from one kingdom and not another.

I think they’ve done studies that do prove plants scream, I’ll listen close when my fall crop gets mature and I throw them in the pot :smiley:

One of my best friends is a fish biologist doctor with a lot of letters after his name, director of aquaculture at the University of Florida and chairman of board of directors for the Florida aquarium. He assures me that fish, crabs, shrimp and lobster do not have a nervous system or brain that allows them to feel pain. It’s not possible, they don’t have the receptors and synopsis and whatnotsis to feel pain.

Hope he’s right, I always feel bad when those crabs hit the jacuzzi. but not too bad to lose my appetite :smiley:

If God didn’t want us to eat animals, he wouldn’t have made them out of meat.

I am a member of P.E.T.A. and think it is a wonderful organization. I invite all of y’all to come join. I feel after attending a few meetings, I think y’all would think differently… Next Meeting details below.

Funny how society has evolved to produce human offspring that that think it is offensive to consume nourishment.

It’s past my comprehension how one pathetic group of humans can condemn the masses for eating food.
