PETA...Anyone surprised?

GTA has always been controversial franchise. Not only GTA, but if we take a look at Rockstars other titles, almost all of their games are reprehensible. With the new hunting system, the list will only increase. Although they have implemented hunting before in RDR but got away with it (because of the setting). But what about now? Will PETA interfere? I guess the answer is pretty obvious.

 

I'm actually pretty surprised PETA hasn't said anything about it as of now. I read an article where PETA supposedly complained about whaling in Ubisoft's upcoming title AC: Black Flag. Interestingly they haven't uttered a word about GTA V. Maybe Rockstar has somehow temporarily suppressed them? What do you think?

There's still time. Just wait for it, those circus-clowns-masquerading-as-an-animal-rights-group will emerge all guns blazing at the peak of GTA V mania, just to squeeze in their cheap shot at publicity.

Last i heard is that this miserable company kills dogs and cats themselves, lots of them too. People who find an abused dog or cat on the street and think he/she's done a good deed by bringing it to PETA....is wrong.

No one takes PETA seriously, they're a borderline cult and I'd hope there's a parody of them in the game. They have zero authority and power to do anything with this and what little good they've done is negated by the overwhelming bullsh*t they've pulled over the years. This stuff only serves one purpose and that's to bring more attention to themselves. They won't be able to resist so just wait until the game is out.

GUILT - Good Business.

PETA make's money out of average persons guilt over things that they really should not feel guilty about.

And they are focusing they're marketing to children, which is sick.

Also, PETA has two faces.. They "euthanize" animals they have taken into custody.

 

 

Out of 760 dogs impounded, they killed 713, arranged for 19 to be adopted, and farmed out 36 to other shelters (not necessarily “no kill” ones).

As for cats, they impounded 1,211, euthanized 1,198, transferred eight, and found homes for a grand total of five.

PETA also took in 58 other companion animals — including rabbits. It killed 54 of them.

PETA also compared Jewish people being tortured in the holocaust to a calf being starved in one of their advertising campaigns. I think it's disgusting and offensive towards the families of those poor people to compare human life to animals (go look up their 'holocaust on a plate' ad and you'll see what I mean). If you wear anything that even remotely resembles fur they'll throw paint at you in the street to deliberately vandalize and damage your clothing.

 

And while they're busy publicity whoring and prancing around attacking video games that simulate the hunting of non-exsitent digital animals in a fictional world, there are actual whales being harpooned in the real world. How about putting their time and money into saving them for once if they care so much for animal rights?

 

Sorry to say this but PETA are nothing but a bunch of FASCIST THUGS who care nothing for animals and just want publicity and total control!

 

It won't be long before they attack GTA V to which the entire gaming community will respond with a huge middle finger as always smile.gif

Seriously, have you seen this commercial?

 

 

 

PETA is just pathetic, I wouldn't be surprised if they did attack GTA V sometime soon.

Why are some people like OP so afraid of PETA and think they can do anything to GTA? Think dude, if you can create a MASSACRE OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN THAT GAME, who would ever seriously think about hurting animals in the same game as being awful, evil or whatever.

I love dogs as much as anyone, but seriously if they come out trying to shame rockstar for allowing us to kill animals they'll embarrass themselves.

That has actually made me furious. Can we kill everyone in PETA?

 

I'm all for animal protection and aid, but PETA is just ... infuriating. I absolutely HATE - and i meant hate to the point i could cause physical harm to - the people that put animal lives above humans', especially in games; why is it acceptable to kill hundreds of cops or soldiers or other human enemies, even maybe mutilating them, but kick a chicken and all of a sudden there's an outcry.

 

 

pathetic.

 

I hope PETA stay silent for their sake. If they try anything, what's going to happen? The government says "LETS BAN A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR INCOME TO PLEASE SOME CHARITY THAT GENERATE NO ECONOMICAL REVENUE"

 

It's like me walking up to EA and asking: "Please make decent, well produced and well supported games"

 

What's going to happen?

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

I never said I'm afraid of PETA. All I said is that I'm surprised they haven't commented on it, because they comment on literally everygame which has animals in it.

PETA is a organization created out of political correctness just to guilt trip you out of your money. And i wish i could +1 the person above me b/c he's on the money

PETA needs to harden the f*ck up and realize the animals are NOT REAL DAMMIT. God it's like they're doing it for the attention. I mean do they want us to frolick in animal-less woodlands, get f*cked
