Protesting the circus?

Lately, I've noticed I have little tolerance for the antics of animal lovers. It's not that I hate animals, I just don't give them the same amount of love and respect that I give to people. I also don't mistreat animals. When I see one, I usually talk to it, pet it, and act tenderly toward it.

I've been trying to give my dog away and finally, a non-profit agency is taking her away tomorrow. They've found a great family in the Northeast US who will take her, which I'm genuinely happy about. We had neither the means nor the time to care for her, and with another baby on the way, we knew we'd better give her away. The only problem is that the people taking her away are acting like we beat the dog, or like we totally ignore her, neither of which are true.

Now, with the circus coming to town, people are getting all painted up naked just to protest the mistreatment of animals?! This is insane. There are plenty of people being treated worse, go protest sex slavery in parts of Asia or governmental oppression in Africa! People are definitely being treated worse than animals in many other parts of the world!

"'The animals are kept in tiny cages so small they can barely turn around. Elephants are chained for 90 percent of their lives.' PETA claims the use of exotic animals in circus acts poses a danger to everyone."

These people are unbelievable. Please don't pay attention to these people, no matter how many naked women are painted up like tigers.
