Now everyone knows that PETA has done some over the top things in the past while trying to get their message across. (warning the links are graphic) From showing dead animals to scantily clad women. They even had a few TV ads banned because they just had gone too far. Now PETA wants to push the envelope even more and has decided that the racy ads are what get more people to listen to their message. Therefore, they think it is a good idea to open a PETA porn site.
Yes, shock is a very effective way to get your message across but when does it stop becoming a message and more of just a stunt/gimmick? What do you guys think do you think? Has PETA gone too far with this one or do you think this will somehow help them get the word out for the ethical treatment of animals?
Well I dont think that any of that is actually getting across their message. It drives more people away in my opinion than I would think that it would draw in. If I were looking for a worthy cause to join for the treatment of animals, I would 1, look for one far less extremist than PETA and 2 not want to join one that thinks it is necessary to go to those extremes to gain support. If the cause is worthy it will generate support with much less effort that they are putting into it.
