TLDR:  PETA has suggested that Spearfish High School in Spearfish SD change its name to Sea Kitten High School to "reflect the gentle nature of its current marine namesake" as part of a campaign aimed at making children feel nicer* towards sea creatures in general.

I foresee the following result of this campaign occurring somewhere:  "Mommy, I took my sea kitten, Finny, out to cuddle and pet and now he's floating at the top of the bowl instead of swimming around!"

*I.e. less inclined to catch/eat.

I hate PETA so much. They do more damage than they prevent.

OMG....."We want people to realize that more fish are killed each year than all animals combined," he said. "They don't have the sympathy of more popular animals like cats and dogs." LMAO really? there are more fish murderings each year than there are dog killings? Noooo way?!

"If children were taught to refer to fish as "sea kittens," reflecting that fish, like cats and dogs, are "individuals" that "do have friendships," fewer fish might be killed for food or sport, said Pulin Modi, a PETA spokesman"

HAHA wow I think calling fish sea kittens is trying to make kids act retarded. Fish are individuals and do have friendships....what? really? man now im soo going to eat some fish and wonder how his friends feel about me murderng, mutilating, deep frying and devouring there friend. 

heh... soon they will require sewer rats to have proper habitats for them to live in because sewer life is degrading and doesnt provide rat families with a healthy and nurturing environment....

That's like saying since we can't use the N-word, murder rates will drop.

Right, because eating veggies and grains is a logical cause of contracting illnesses.
