Disney joins forces with pro-fish activists
Disney joins forces with pro-fish activists
Pro-fish activists have won permission from Disney to adapt a film poster for Finding Nemo to help promote vegetarianism to youngsters. Pressure group Peta says it is using the cartoon characters on leaflets, along with a two-metre tall fish, to persuade children not to eat fish. The film features a shark who attends a support group for vegetarians which uses the Peta slogan prominently. A spokesman for Peta (People of the Ethical Treatment of Animals) said: "We were delighted to see our tag-line 'Fish are friends not food' in the Finding Nemo movie. "The slogan is even being used on Finding Nemo pyjamas." "We hope that after seeing Finding Nemo, children will agree that fish belong in the ocean, not on dinner plates."

ROTFLMAO Last time I took my 5 year old grand daughter fishing,, I asked her what she was trying to do with one of her long cast,, she laughed and said "I'm looking for Nemo" WHat are you going to do when you catch him, was my reply She replied "don't be silly, I'm going to eat him, after you clean him and Nanna cooks him " SHe was giving me a very serious look -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Boomerang Fishing Pro. , Straight Up Hooks , Straight Up Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |

Disney joins forces with pro-fish activists
It has been suggested we petition Disney to change their anti fishing message.
Probalby won't do much good. Disney is home of the movie Bambi and all the anti hunter emotion it has started. According to a report I read in a magazine, the original script for Bambi called the poacher that killed Bambi's mom a poacher - but that was changed. Disney has been approached to put a disclaimer on the movie that hunters are ethical, but they have refused. I respect Disney about as much as I do PETA. Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

Ahhh... junk science.... By the way, I was at the Main Street Arts Festival (Real Conservative bastion THERE NOT) in Ft Worth last year, and the guy manning the Vegan booth was disgusting! He was hugely fat and had extreme man-breasts that looked like women-breasts... If that's what a vegan diet does to the male anatomy, count me out! |
