I think PETA is the best site in the world. I just recently became a member and I am completely addicted. I enjoy researching and listening to videos. It is so fun! PETAs website is the whole package no wonder it has been around since before I was born. I have told all my friends about it and I will continue to do so. PETA is my favorite website and I will keep on being vegetarian. FOR peta I mean pete sakes, I will never go back to meat. That is awful and PETA really opened my eyes. I hope everyone goes on PETA and realized the real lies food factories are telling. PETA is basically the miracle site. Im going to try my best to do everything in my power to help. Thank you PETA! :D

Because whenever and wherever I am...I am aware! I see cows, i think 'Don't eat a burger', I see fur and think 'Don't wear my skin', every day in every way.....I AM AWARE. Thanx PETA!

The thing I love most about PETA 2 is that it's a big comunity of people who think just like me. I've never met a vegeterian at my school, and it's really great to know the people here are going to understand me.
Now gimme my free T-Shirt! :D

So what do I love MOST about peta2? Lemme see, what DON'T I love about Peta2? Seriously though, in a world of non-vegans and rude meat eaters who love to cause problems because of my veganism, going online, and seeing Peta2 as my homepage is an amazing reprieve. Millions of ethical people who don't eat meat and live cruelty free are right at my fingertips. It is the biggest network of the kind of people I want to associate with. Not only is it a great networking company, but it is an excellent teacher. Peta2's resources are available in depth and in abundance to all those who ask. Leaflets, pamphlets, brochures, videos, stickers, handouts, etc. I can grab some whenever I want to spread the word. On top of THAT, I can be on top of all the latest news related to animal rights and new updates on foods that I never knew were cruel to animals. Basically, it is a tool to keep myself living cruelty free, teach others how to do it too, and a great news distributor. From food, to fur, clothes to cruelty you expose the truth behind the prevarications mainstream media lays out before our eyes. I know what really goes on in factory farms, fur farms, dairy places, slaughterhouses, KFC, etc.. and I can use this knowledge to help put an end to it, stop contributing to it, and inform others by way of YOUR resources and website and literature. From now, until college and beyond, Peta2 will be my ultimate, truthful, reliable, honest, ethical, source of news and information. The fact that hundreds of people devote their lives to protecting the welfare of animal rights, and teaching others how they can too inspires me to go out and do the same and do all that I can to possibly help them as well. Peta2 exists for the ANIMALS. How many companies can say that and MEAN it? Not many. But I wholeheartedly know, Peta2 CAN, and I LOVE them for it! Thank you Peta2 for helping save millions of animals, changing my life and helping me to change others as well.

the whole community spirit of people and how if on the boards for example, if one person says they need help, pretty much everyone including peta2 staff do everything they can to help them and it's nice knowing that everyone's helping each other in order to help animals and change peoples opinions and no one will get judged by what the say no matter how "stupid" they think it is. I also love the fact that peta2 do so many things that raise public awareness which makes people remember them and this eventually changes mind. Other AR groups don't do this, thus getting less of a reaction and less positive outcome. It's amazing how peta2 staff are willing to go out and not get sleep till after midnight in order to table at shows, purely to help animals and change opinions and show people reality. It's great too that members of the peta2 community are willing to do this also.

What do I love about PETA? Probably everything. I love how they offer endless recipes, I love the class projects they offer, I love all the PSA Commercials, I love that they encourage students to help in every way they can, I love how they measure every living creature as equal, I love that they let us share our own experiences with them, I love the creative animal rights designs they have on the page, I love the e-cards, I love the petitions sheets, I love the tips they give to teenager on how they can make a difference. I LOVE THAT THEY CARE!!! I love that they defend creatures that can't defend themselves. I love that they fight for what we believe in. I love that they question authority. I love that they are nice and polite but at the same time brave and fearless. AGAIN I'LL SAY, I LOVE THAT THEY CARE!!! And finally, I love that they make me care.
Thank you PETA, all of you are an inspiration.

With love and admiration
Annie

What I love most about Peta2 is how this website educates everyone. It can teach younger children or older adults about what animals go through and offers so many facts. It leaves no excuse for eating meat and supporting the torture of animals.

The best part about PETA2 is no one's ideas, suggestions, questions, or answers are ridiculed. And it has a positive vibe, everyone is coming together to save the animals!

PETA2 has soooo many great things on this site. I visit it pretty much every day of my life. There's always something new about animal cruelty on here that makes me remember why I am vegan. And thanks to PETA2 I have not only become cruelty-free, but I have also gotten my friends to join me! I love participating in things and PETA2 gives me the ability to help stop all those evil people that thinks what they do to animals is okay. If it weren't for this site I would still be promoting all those horrible things. Now I can't even look at meat or fur without feeling completely disgusted; and it's all thanks to this website right here. I went vegan about a month ago and didnt think I could do it, but PETA2 had so many things on here that kept me going. Not only why I should, but they also gave me lots of ideas on what to eat. Ever since I have felt so incredible and thankful that I no longer eat or wear any animal products. PETA2 made me feel like I could do something to help all the animals and I'm trying to start a protest against my local KFC. Without PETA2 I would never feel like I could do any of this.

I love PeTa2 because it keeps me informed. I became a vegetarian recently, with the help of peta2! And I love that they give me ways to give back and inform other people of the horrors out there in the meat industry. It's horrible! But peta2 makes it SO easy to get involved! With all of the print-outs I'm trying to get my cafeteria at my college veg-friendly! I also love how it keeps me connected with people in my area that are also a part of saving animals, and lets me know when those people are taking action so I can be a part of it too! But what I love most is that it's a group of people MY AGE that I can relate to.. and we're the next generation that will change the future for animals! Thanks PETA2!! You're amazing!

What do I love most about PETA2?
The street teamers, staff, and everyone on here is compassionate. They take their time to give a damn about something that most of the world can turn a deaf ear to. These people genuinely care and take the time to do things like answer a question if this food is vegan or if this brand tests on animals. Everyone on this site that comes from all walks of life with all types of opinions all work together for one common, selfless goal. By working together this site is creating a global alliance of animal lovers and I believe that we are honestly making an amazing change in liberating animals. Unlike most places on the internet these days, there is hardly any spamming, bad comments, or other negative aspects, just sincere individuals who care with their everything about animals and making sure animals are treated ethically and like living beings instead of prodcuts.
Everyone on this site is so positive and uplifting. If someone is being bullied by ignorant carnivores, they can post something on the boards and other members flock to give comfort and other stories for strength. While being an animal lover, especially a vegetarian or vegan may not be common or acceptable in some places, I know as well as other street team members that in times of trouble or doubt, fear not, for there are people on PETA2 just waiting to help and lend a hand of personal advice or experience.

I love Peta2 because they make it possible for just about ANYONE to help further animal rights!
With tons of ideas and downloads, they make it simple to take action.

So many people are turned off by hard work; and I understand that. Designing your own method of protest is often challenging. Peta2 tells you exactly how a single person can go about achieving so much!!

I feel very lucky to have stumbled across this website...I was always the kid that wanted to take action, but was nervous or unsure about how I would do it! Peta2 has given me so many opportunities to spread the word about bettering the lives of animals. Thank you, Peta2!

I love PETA because they have opened my eyes. I now know the truth about how animals are killed and how disturbing eating eggs and other products from animals is.In fact, ever since I went vegan I've been the happiest I've ever been and also the most healthy. Thank you for changing and saving my life PETA I LOVE YOU

SERIOUSLY

I love PETA2, because it motivates me to do more for the animals. Other animal rights sites are informative, but fail to give you much motivation. At PETA2, I can get points for helping the animals. It's great! Peta2 is also very informative and the information is for a teen's level. Great job PETA2!! I LOVE YOU!

PeTA has opened my eyes to the horrible cruelties hidden behind closed doors, whether it's happening in slaughterhouses, animal testing facilities, circuses, and even the animal abuse in the houses of many horrible people across America. Because of PeTA, people cannot tell me that ignorant of the abuses across the world. I have realized that animals are equal to us in EVERY SINGLE WAY. Sure they cannot design a space ship, and no, they cannot write an opera. WE cannot run with such grace they the gazelle, and WE cannot soar like an eagle-but WE can stand up for the millions of animals suffering abuse EVERYDAY- whether that be going vegan, like I have done, or just refusing to wear fur. WE shall stand up for those who cannot speak up for themselves because THEY ARE NOT OURS TO EAT, THEY ARE NOT OURS TO WEAR, THEY ARE NOT OURS TO EXPERIMENT ON, AND THEY ARE NOT OURS TO USE FOR ENTERTAINMENT OR ANY OTHER EXPLOITIVE PURPOSE! Thank you PeTA, for showing me the way!

you ask what it is that i love most about P.E.T.A?? i think you should be asking wat dont i love about P.E.T.A~!!! i love P.E.T.A because it has changed my opions and views on vegeterianism and veganism...at first i was lie why do it??? but now that ive actually viewed the site and did research i have found out that being vegeterian is both helpful to yourself and the animals, so i went vegeterian in july 29th of 2007 and as of today [january 25th 2008] i went vegan,cause of how P.e.t.a has opened my eyes to what the animals go through....also P.E.T.A has all the information you need or want to know about vegeterianism and all that great stuff...so without a doubt P.E.T.A is by far one of the greatest sites.

i love peta because when i first started being a vegetarian it was hard because i didn't know all of the things with meat in them but then i heard about this site and i joined it. i got the free book thing and read it and it made me want to be vegetarian for a better reason, i felt so bad about wat was happening to animals so i told my friends about it and this site made it easier for me to do that because they could see it. i also love the message boards so i can get some of my questions answered and talk with other veggies and see how they deal with their friends and family members that aren't vegetarian. THANK YOU PETA2

Hey Peta2!I love your site!It can keep me busy for hours!The games,contests,videos,Info and knowing what to avoid is a great thing to have at your fingertips!And the best part is, I'm helping animals!Your work has inspired me to add little hints into my classwork,and to tell others what terrible things some companies can do to animals.I have made visiting your site one of my things to do every Friday night,I research,watch videos,and find out ways to convince others to visit your site!It's a great way to learn and spread the word about being cruelty free!

Posted by: Jackie at January 25, 2008 10:04 PM
                                                               

The thing I love MOST about peta2 is that it has shown me that no matter where you are from, how much money you make, or how old you are, you CAN make a difference in stopping animal cruelty!

what i love about peta2 the most is that it is such a large organization. i have easy access and ideas in ways to be an animal rights activist, and i dont have to feel like a freak because there are so many other teens that are members with the same beliefs as me, and animal activist have a bad rep, and im not the only one, and i can express myself and love for animals in such a welcoming enviroment because we are all dedicated to the same belief. also i love how encouraging peta2 is when it comes to pissing people off. :]

I love Peta because Peta kicks ass- where others back down, PETA and it's members are always there making sure that those who can't speak are heard. PETA doesn't do the..wait it out approach. In your face tactics, kick ass slogans, and a 'don't back down' way of doing things makes this organization one of the best, if not the best all together.

If ignorance if bliss, screw bliss man, because I'd rather be veg and rock a PETA 't' than pretend to ignore where those meat carcasses come from in the local Shop Rite- if watching all those Disney movies has taught me anything it's been that animals have feelings too. I don't get the world today, but toss one of those t's and I'll help get the message out there even more so than now. James Laver once said "Clothes are never a frivolty, they always mean something" well, I can't think of what would mean more than sportin a new PETA2 shirt. So, toss one my way guys- size L (it's all that Temptation frozen desserts I've been eatin).

What do I love about PETA2? Everything. I love how it CONNECTS with youth, and gives great ideas for activism on a whole new level. It's not like other sites that are designed for adults; it makes promoting animals' rights so much more fun and easy, either for young activists starting out, or people who need a little inspiration. Not only that, PETA2 alerts you when there's new ways to help out. The way it's set up, you get a chance to help and take immediate action, especially with the text alerts. I love the boards on Peta2, where you can hear about other activists all over and listen to their views and make new friends. It's a friendly, informative place. I always recommend PETA2 to all of my friends that I convert to vegetarianism or veganism. Everything's so user-friendly. When I first went vegan, I didn't know where to begin, but all of the great information filled me in with so much stuff I never knew, and it's all in one place. Plus, the administrators are so friendly! Without PETA2, I wouldn't have been able to expand my activism to the point of getting my school involved, converting 20 plus other people to the enlightened side of veg*nism. I could go on forever, 'nuff said, PETA2 is amazing. THANKS! :]

What I love most about peta2 is that it goes way beyond simply alerting me to the extent of animal suffering - it shows me what I, just a normal girl, can do to truly make a difference. Through peta2's Street Team, I'm able to help get the word out about the importance of animal rights and the benefits of going veggie, using a variety of methods from tabling to handing out peta2 stickers to my friends to using my cellphone voicemail as a discussion starter. They say everyone needs a cause, and I really love that peta2 has helped me find mine.

"So what do you love MOST about peta2?"

When I was fifteen I decided to give up eating meat. I didn't know anyone who had done so and it wasn't widely accepted in my own family. I had to give it up by standing on my own and putting my foot down. Here I am, some years later, and I find this wonderful site. A place with other people who agree with me. A place where I can learn more about animal rights and how I can be out there on the front lines fighting for them. A wonderful place that helped me convince my own sister to go vegetarian. So, what do I love most about Peta2? I love how it feel like I have come home to a family who understands me and the feels the same. Mostly, because I know everyone I meet on here is living their life without killing or harming animals and that just feel amazing.

What i love about peta2... Well, when i discovered peta.com i went through the site and was completely impressed by it; an advocate for animal rights. But being a school student i felt rather overwhelmed by the whole organization. it had me wondering where can i fit in? what can i do? (other than change myself personally)... Then i discovered peta2, and realized maybe it isnt so large after all as we all can do something through this... Basically, what i love most about peta2 is that it gives teenagers and students voices and a platform to make a difference in the aspect of animal rights... Things that are relevant to us and around us everyday like dissection should be fought against by ourselves. We are the ones who should fight against or for what affects us and i think thats what peta2 helps us do... And on top of that you're never alone, you can connect with others in your area who feel as strongly as you do on an issue and you can work with them as well. Peta2 makes you feel like nothing goes above the head of someone who cares enough to make a difference... =)

What do I love most about Peta2?! That question is rather difficult to answer. What isnt their to love about an organization that devotes so much into educating and providing information to those interested in a cruelty free lifestyle? Not only that, but they do what very few other organizations ever actually get around to, MAKING A DIFFERENCE. Not only does Peta2 provide information on the lifestyle, they give you the oppourtunity to take a stand. They provide their members with a constant segway to step up, and have their voice be heard. Peta2 opens the eyes of millions of people world wide to the cruelty that exists amoungst us today, and then provides you with a way to make a difference. They have such a large fan base and community of people who are always there to support and encourage you along your journey. I suppose those things are what I like best about Peta2.

Take care and smile,
Jay

The best thing about PETA2 is every time you log on you know that you are part of a moment to protect animals. You are part of a good cause. When you get on the boards you know you can open up. You know you can be the cause of change in America and around the world.

"So what do you love MOST about peta2?"

- I love the honest, direct and unfiltered education that peta2 delivers. I can honestly stay that after recent exposure to your site, I no longer am able to stomach the unacceptable behavior that goes on with our poor animal friends. I had no idea that such cruelty goes on. I am a new, but true peta2 supporter and would be proud to wear and pass out the shirts while educating others as ignorant as I was.

The fact that no one comments until there is free things offered. =P

No. Seriously. I love peta2 because that's just what it is. Peta. Related to a wonderful organization that's helped me so much. Suck up right? But honestly. The boards so that I can get help when I need it (often enough), the merch so I can strut around and be peta...ified, the info, the contests, the updated daily blog, the recipes, the helping hand out to teenagers in a hectic society that has trouble understanding people's beliefs.... Seriously? If I HAD to pick???

Probably....this t-shirt. =D

Mucho love.

I LOVE PETA2 BECAUSE IT GIVES ME INFORMATION AND OTHER STUFF TO TELL OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT THIS SITE. WHENEVER I SEE SOMEONE EATING MEAT I KNOW WHAT TO TELL THEM. HOW THE ANIMALS GET KILLED, ALSO WHY EATING MEAT IS BAD. ALSO, TO THE PEOPLE THAT LIKE REAL FUR. WHY THAT IS ALSO BAD AND HOW THE ANIMALS HAVE TO SUFFER. JUST SO SOMEONE ELSE CAN WEAR THEIR FUR.

What I love most about peta2 is, it lets the people who have told there entire short lives, "You can make a difference!" actually do just that! I love animals and I have always wanted to start an animal rights group, but I didn't know how until I came across peta2! Now I started an animal rights group, and we're having bake sales, and protests! Thanks Peta2!!! You rock!

Now I started an animal rights group, and we're having bake sales, and protests! Thanks Peta2!!! You rock!

The thing I love about peta 2 is the site is like me we love and care for animals and want everyone to get more knowledge on how to treat animals I spread the word like peta2 does my boyfriend, brother, and mom are vegetarians like me im proud I could change their minds and I couldnt have done it without peta2 and thats why i love peta2, peta2 wants change like I do.

The one thing i love about PETA2 is what they are doing! They are telling people "Hey animals feel too, just like people do!" which brings me to ask all of the carnivors out there "You wouldn't hurt a human being would you? So why hurt that animal?" It really brings people to ask questions, and no one can really answer that question besides "it's tasty." PETA2 is brinign music and teenagers, the most opinonated group of people out there, in supporting one cause! Animals!

What do I love MOST about Peta? I love how Peta has helped me be who I am right now. I never thought I would get support for giving up meat. I thought I would get laughed in my face and I wouldn't have anyone to have the knowledge to know what I was going through. When I found the website, I was absolutely flabbergasted. I didnt know that there were so many people out there that had given up meat. The website gives me a chance to talk to others about the same things that I love. No matter how different we were, be it nationality or what have you, once we logged on to Peta we all became one BIG family... we were each others support system and if one of us had a problem or were trying to get the word out there....there was always the knowledge that peta had advice and tips to help us ......Peta has shown me that I need to stand up for what I believe in most and that we have to speak for all the animals that are going through such horrors... I love Peta the most because it is my rock ...it is what keeps me going into the future.....it helps me realize that I am not the only one....it gives me options,recipies,etc. I love Peta because no matter how many people there are out there trying to say that what we do is stupid Peta helps everysingle vegetarian or vegan stay strong and firm[stand their ground] I simply love Peta because that's just it it's simple
thanks Peta.....
love you peta2 :]

There are so many awesome thigns about PETA2, but i Think I would have to say that the best thing is the people and atmosphere surrounding the biggest ( and greatest) animal rights organisation. On the boards people are so helpful and kind, the PETA2 bloggers are interesting and funny as well as informative. And all the contact I've people from PETA2 has been great, they've come to my town to help me with KFC demos and have emailed and sent me Phamplets and literature! I think the people surronding PETA2 is the best aspect! sry for teh spelling mistakes!

It is almost hard saying what i love about peta2.com because i love everything about it. It is a great way to stop people from torturing animals. Without this website, many people wouldn't be informed about the many animals dying and being killed for food, clothing, shampoo, make-up, soap, etc.I haven't come across a website better than this one just for the simple fact that yall are the only website that takes the time and effort to make a website that is amazing and just for animals. It is so generous for you to being doing all of this and i want to thank you for putting so much time into something that is not, unfortunately, mentioned that much. I love this website because it cares for animlas and that's what we need. Thanks peta2.com for everything you do to help animals!

I love PETA so much because they help to inform others of what’s really going on in the world that sometimes people can be as cruel as to skin animals alive and cause them unnecessary pain for their own gain. They encourage people to get off their butts and do something to help alleviate the animal’s pain, to stop their suffering, and to teach those misguided individuals the error of their ways!

What do I love most about peta2? I love the fact that no matter how broke you are, you can spread the word about animal rights. I'm definately not the richest person in the world, but animal rights is my passion. I can't afford a lot of things to help, but with peta2, I can get free stuff that can help change peoples minds about helping animals. With the stickers, fliers, and many more free things peta2 kindly sends willing activists, I can change minds, and that's what I love most about peta2.

I love the fact that PETA will ruthlessly strive to bring about better lives for millions of animals which are bred for meat, tested on in labs, forced to act in circuses and bring to light what is actually happening to them, slashing any visions of a 'dream-like' farm yard or ideals that the animals don't actually get hurt. They shout out load that animals do have feeling and should have exactly the same rights as a human being, as we're all living on the same planet, and so should treat each other with respect and live in harmony, which the animals have no problem in doing, but the selfish and cruel human which use animals as machines for profit can't succumb to. Thank-you PETA for doing all that you have done, and for enlightening thousands if not millions of people [me being opne of them] to the horrors of animal cruelty in this day and age. Thanks

i like PETA because they let people know the truth about animal cruelty and that its not just something yu read about in books. they teach peolple that eating meat, testing on animals, wearing fur, and just plain out abusing animals is cruel and insanely barbaric. but what i like the most about them is that they preach the benefits of going vegetarian and vegan. they show that eating meat is the same as eating a dead, decomposing, carcass. they show people that all of this stuff is retarted and outdated.

To put it simply, peta2 stands for a good cause. It's a good way to inform people in today's society about something that's happening that needs to be stopped. It's also a good way for people with the same ideas to come together, learn, and do something about the cruelty in today's world. We can make a difference, and thanks to Peta2, it might be a little easier.

I love PETA2 because of everything they do, they put their heart into it! Whether it's posting bulletins on myspace or campaigns, they are on top! I can honestly say I visit this site the most, more than any animal site. I also love how you can join the street team and earn points and win prizes for helping animals! I will continue to support the greatest site ever!

What I love most about peta2 is that it gives me a purpose in life. When I accept a peta2 mission or go out and do a protest, I'm not just another teenage girl worrying about make up or school or boys. There's a reason why I'm alive; to save the lives of animals. Peta2 helped he discover that.

the thing i love most about peta2 is that it makes animal rights accessible to the masses. the website is filled with all the information you could ever ask for, tons of ideas on how to get active, and more celebrities than id ever think would sympathize with the animal rights movement. without peta2 and peta, i would still be a leather wearing, meat eating, iams purchasing little person. thank you for showing me the light!

I love peta2,seeing its love for animals and for what they do for animals.There's no bigger reaon then this for me to ba a peta2 fan.It would not be possible for me or any of the bloggers to describe the love for pete2 in few words as the work done by peta2 is out of this world and exceptional.For me there are two classification in this world,one is living things and other is non-living things.I place man and animals at the same level in my life.We are no good then non-living things,if we are cruel with other living beings(i.e animals).So one who work for the welfare of living things is super-human and those who are cruel with animals are in-human or non-living things who don't have the ability to care for others.And what makes peta2 and their activist super human is their ability to care & help living things.Hats off to peta2 for the work they do.The pride of peta2 and the respect it has gained in minds of people and especially me is immense and is inexpressible.I feel if all the people in this world would blog to answer this question,no one would answer it perfectly,as its not a piece of cake to describe the love for peta2 for common man like us in few words.By more of my words,i would not be able to express the love for peta2 as everything in this world is not expressible.You can just feel the love for peta2 or experience it,can't describe it.I really feel low while writing this,cause i am not getting words to describe my love for peta2.May be i would call it my true love for peta2.I wouldn't be regretting if i don't win for this blog,as i never do stuff in life with intension to get something.what i can say is,there's loads of love for peta2 in my heart and would be never ending.Three cheers for PETA2.

I love peta2 because I can easily use its materials (especially stickers) to bring up animal rights issues with the young teens I work with, while at the same time being able to use those same materials at the college I attend with the same amount of success. I love being able to bring up animal rights at work and school, and peta2 helps me do that and spread the animal rights message in a way which is accessible to young teens and young adults alike.

this is a exciting website and comparable to sometihng like ilovebees.com the halo 2 hype mill.
you people have actually found a clever way to reach out to people and actually as of yesterday. i have became a vegetarian, this site actually encouraged me to think about all the cheese and milk products i consume for the longest time.how i have so many friends who have told me meat is not bad for you. well, i think i am done with meat and cheese and milk and everything else. its nasty and shouldnt go into your immune system. i always thought the taste was good, but when you see a website like this one and start hearing about how bad it actually is for animals and how they suffer. i really dont care to eat another steak again. its going to be hard to quit but, i am willing to take that chance to let animals actually feel life.

In short... beacuse this site is a fun way to get active and appeals to even non vegetarians and vegans to become interested in doing so. It defeats the pre concieved notion of animal activists being crazy people who will not give you a choice and force opinions.

I love PETA2 because they fight for everything they believe in. They work their butts of trying to keep this site as cool as it is. I love peta2 also, because they encourage people to be who they want to be and fight for the right's of mistreated animals. They inform a lot of people what id going on in they society that they thought was quaint and safe. They prove that it can be easy to live the vegan/vegetarian lifestyle. And they have these awesome campaigns that you can do to earn points to get AWESOME stuff, and you also help animals in the process! How cool is that? PETA2 RULES! I LOVE THEM! PETA2 is sooooooooo addicting!

I LOVE PETA the most because, they help animals in need, send out a very, VERY great message to people, because they are right, animals DO have feelings! It is demoralizing for these animals to be skinned and boiled and tortured to death FOR SELFISH PEOPLE's OWN PLEASURE it is SO wrong, I can't quite explain how wrong it is, you know? PETA is the best thing that has happened in a long time for this world, because these lovely people are trying to get you selfish lazys off of your butts and do something productive, just because animals can't talk DOES NOT mean that they have no feelings, OR are just useless things created for our sake, because that is NOT TRUE PETA is the best thing in my life right now too, JUST because they work SO hard to get this message across, so, I hope that PETA stands strong as long as they can to teach people of their awful ways! PETA will always stand strong in my heart.

The reason why I love Peta2.org so much is because of all th information it has to help people wanting to become Vegetarian and Vegan. Without Peta2.org, I would of struggled a lot more. The free starter pack is what helped me the most, with the reipies on, and just general information that I didn't know when I first began.

I also really like how they keep everyone updated on the newest petitions and news. Well done Peta2.org!! And please please keep up the good work!

i love peta2 simply because it does such a great job explaining the harmful effects to your body by consuming animal products. not only that, but also the cruelty and torture poor animals go through just to be worn as a coat. peta2 does a wonderful job listing alternative food choices and makes it really to spread the word about vegetarianism. i have been a vegetarian for about six months now, thanks to peta, and have even convinced some of my friends to check out the site and get involved in it. i appreciate all the information and help peta2 has given me to make my vegetarian lifestyle possible, and more importantly, healthy.

thanks peta2,

I admire PETA for their strong admiration of animals. I have always been an animal lover, & it's great to see that other people just like myself are actually doing something about this epidemic. PETA2 is awesome because it's really geared toward the younger generations who are the future of this world. PETA2 gives me a place to go to so that I can be forever updated on current events that effect not only myself, but this planet, and all of the animals who are being mistreated by heartless human beings.

Throughout my entire life I have held a great level of compassion towards animals. It wasn't until I turned 16 however, that my eyes-- and more importantly my mind --were opened to a new level of true compassion and peace-by peta. I love Peta because I know how much the organization impacted my life and therefore also how much it has impacted millions of other people--which in the end means that this organization has emancipated billions of helpless and speechless animals and given them a voice. Together, with Peta's help we are all able to make a true impact on the world around us.

Well, first off, i want to write about how i'm one of the many vegetarians in my school that knows about Peta2.org and it's amazing news it shares with us. I am an animal person and throughout my life i've owned many animals and taken stray ones in until it's okay to walk out on it's own. So no, i would definately not want my pets to be on my plate for dinner. When i enter your site, the first thing i do is watch the videos of kfc or things like that because then i can really remind myself that saving animals is far more greater than something like saving a friend from being humiliated at school, because unlike rumors and name calling, animals die for us or for the people who eat them and they can't be born again so it really connects to us and opens our eyes to the world. The best thing about peta is, that it's an open site for everyone, even meat-eaters and on-coming vegetarians. I also love the recipies that peta gives us, so it can give quitting vegetarians a reason to stay V ! All im writing is, PETA2.ORG is the greatest site ever. (I hope this site never shuts down.)

What do I love MOST about Peta2? Difficult question. I suppose the best thing about Peta2 is that they fight for animals rights because animals can't. And how they connect people all over the country to all fight for one cause. Which in my opinion is one of the best causes you could fight for. And they show people what REALLY goes on in the slaughter houses and they show people the incredulous amount of cruelty these animals suffer from, so that way everyone can realize and fight for the rights of animals.
You guys are the best.

Some people aren't excepted in their families and groups of friends for being vegetarian or vegan, but here were all welcome and happy!

well.
the thing that i love about peta2 is that it really has helped me make the healthy transition from meat-eater to vegetarian. It also keeps me informed on the new things going on. I love the videos that i have recieved because it shows me the real stuff. It helps me to answer questions i have been asked about being vegetarian that i would have never known how to answer on my own.

I love the fact that no matter what, Peta2 is always there for the animals. Even if their actions attract negative criticism, they're still ready to defend animal rights. Its shows courage, compassion, strength, and also sends out a message that Peta2 really does care.

Who wouldn't love peta2? Only the heartless monsters who enjoy hurting and killing helpless animals. I like peta2 for their honesty and their determination to get their message through to everyone's hearts to prevent animal cruelty. They've given me my compassion and sympathy for others. They're trying to stop you from eating animals, and they're even giving you recipes for vegetarian foods! I couldn't thank them enough for who I've become. I'm so much more healthier now. I don't break out in acne, I still grow, and my food tastes better thinking I'm not hurting anything when I'm eating. The best thing I like about peta2 is that it's a non-profit organization. A lot of other organizations just make stuff up to get money, and they're not really aiming to help anyone or anything. They have free giveaways and give away a lot of free stuff, just so you can help them, and you should. Peta2 really wants to hear what you have to say. They want to hear your voice, my voice, our voice. Animals are just like humans, but in different forms speaking in different languages. They don't deserve to be mistreated. When you're ordering KFC, just think of those poor chickens you're chasing, and as you're eating those nuggets, think of grabbing a bloody chicken squawking while you take a bite out of its neck and sucking its blood. It's pretty sick. Besides, you don't want to be obese like those other people who eat fast food everyday, right? Most obese people eat fast food, and the fat comes from the greasy burgers and fries. I can't imagine eating so much harmful food. Doesn't a fruit salad sound much better?
