In addition to being incredibly insensitive and insulting to African-Americans, the PETA ad comparing the AKC to the KKK IMO is ideologically inaccurate and it bugs me that these idiots don’t know their history. PETA accuses the AKC of creating a “master race” of canines which, in their minds, likens it to the KKK. It was the NAZIS under Hitler, not the KKK, that believed in creating a master race and, as we all know, committed widespread, egregious acts of violence against Jews, gypsies, and other “undesireables”, culminating in the Holocaust.
Although the KKK is as loathsome a racist, anti-Semitic organization as the Nazi Party, it never attempted to “create’ a master race though genocide and sick medical experiments.
I may be splitting hairs here, but hey, that’s in my nature! And no, I do not condone the beliefs of either of these parties—I just like to pick out inaccuracies!!! At any rate, IMO PETA is an organization full of hysterical people that believe animals have the same rights as human beings. I do not share this belief and believe that animals were put here on this earth to help humans in many ways—as beasts of burden, companions, sources of clothing and, God forbid, FOOD! PETA is just another bunch of fanatics that take an idea too far. Yes, I believe in treating animals in a humane manner in both domestic and commercial settings and that all life deserves respect, but I don’t go so far as to say that animals are on the same level as humans. A calf is not the equal of a human baby for f**k’s sake!!!! There is a certain hierarchy in the animal kingdom, of which we are a part, and we are on the top of the “food chain”!
