#3 Fish....Why do they hate us?

I empathized a nice salmon steak last weekend and felt much better (and fuller) afterwards.

#6 Tuna steak for dinner tonight! Conincidental, but I'll toast the campaign.

I'm sure it's accidentally killed tuna though, mucky. Got caught up in a Japanese dolphin net...

#8 Sorry Mucky, but keeping fish as "pets" is a no-no!

#9 taking fish out the wild for pets is a "no-no", and is need to be stopped. most fish peples keep for pets are tank raised and are need good homes. just like cats and dogs. im rather see tropcal fishes in em tanks than release in our lakes and streams for wreek havok. me and frank were have debate on that one time.

#10 I used to have a pet largemouth bass. I caught him when he was a fingerling and raised him on goldfish. He lived comfortably in a 50-gallon tank with an Oscar. I eventually put him in a pond, when he was about a foot long, and no doubt somebody else caught him and ate him.

#13 You just can't imagine how well this is going to go over in south Louisiana. Does the amnesty include shrimp and crawfish?

#16 Do these people go around and harass anglers in the field? I take my ex-roomate's kid fishing every now and then, and I just so happen to keep a club in the truck, just in case of problems. Having to deal with a PETA type could qualify as a "problem".

#18 BAR - if you ever catch a Muskie, you'll need a club to persuade him to lie still in the bottom of the boat!!

#21 There are three types of decent "pets"

DOGS -
CATS -
PARROT FAMILY - (PARROTS COCKATEILS BUDGIES etc)

OK NOW I WILL STICK MY FOOT IN MY MOUTH...

You have to be able to relate to, and not just look at and feed something. A fish, lizard, or turtle is no different than having nice roses in the garden... Rabbits and rodents only care about who feed them...
I.E. they are bait, or stew food...

Now that everybody hates me... Dogs and cats come to sleep on the bed with us at night...
They are only in trouble if they snore too loud...

#22 I had an Oscar and he ate everything else in the tank. Only a parrot I once had was meaner.

#23 PETA suggested this? I can just hear some Southerners reacting to this.

"Honey, grab the dynamite and the picture capturer, we're goin' fishing!"
