58. No, actually, and I'll quote you if I may
"I believe that if PETA miraculously disappeared someone else would do the same work without the offensive commercials and advertising campaigns that alienate large numbers of people who might otherwise not resist being educating on animal rights issues. More progress would be made, and all the good things PETA does would just be done by other groups.

I won't bash them when they do good, but I won't praise them either, remembering how much harm they have done with their ad campaigns. To me, PETA is the guy who walks up to you, punches you in the mouth, then says "Now that I have your attention, let me tell you why I'm better than you." That guy doesn't win any converts."

"I won't bash them when they do good, but I won't praise them either..."

I'll sing to your consistency, at least.
