Hey, sometimes I make good points. Even a broke clock gets it right twice a day!
I've heard lots of people talk about activist groups and say, "You know, everytime I see so-and-so-group, I just do whatever they are protesting against". While I agree this isn't the most mature and rational arguement (and it's a little of cutting off your nose to spite your face), to me, it shows that the message that is trying to get out is getting lost. For example, fur. I think you'd find that the majority of the public agrees that fur for fashion is wrong. I have supported anti-fur messages in the past (including from PETA). But when you get in someone's face, and scream about something, it quite often has the opposite effect. Those of us who are directly affected by the BSL can relate. If we were to march down the middle of the road screaming about pitbulls, how effective would our message be?
