Anti-Teen Pregnancy Ad Proves PETA Doesn't Want Animals To Breed?

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

PETA, the People For Ethical Treatment of Animals and Extreme Treatment of Abusers, is taking its latest controversial ad national. 

The ad, which is entitled "Sex Talk," according to Fox, features two parents who encourage their teenage daughter to start pumping out babies on a continuous basis. And why, pray tell, would you want to run this in Kentwood, La., hometown of Jamie Lynn Spears?

[It starts with] a mother and father sitting down with their teenage daughter in her bedroom and telling her they have to talk about sex. She looks disgusted and embarrassed, until she hears what they say next.

"We think you should be having it, Sweetie," begins her dad.

"A lot of it," adds her mom.

"Get up there and nail everything you can," her father says.

"If it's got a pulse, you should be wrapped around it," the mother finishes.

The shocked girl asks them what will happen if she gets pregnant. They both shrug it off.

"So what?" You should pop out all the kids you want," the father says, waving away her concerns. "We'll just leave them in the shelter, dump them in the street."

Of course, the ad is really about spaying and neutering your pets. But check this darling quote, which is the whole point of wasting your time on this story:

"People often point their fingers at parents of pregnant teens, and we want to let the people who let their animals breed feel the heat too," People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals spokeswoman Melissa Karpel told FOXNews.com. "It's a fun, edgy way to get the message out about a very serious issue."

You don't think she meant PETA will rain terror down on people who let their animals have offspring, do you?

Anyway, here's the full video. The story is here, via FoxNews.

Seeing as how PETA is a contracted killer of animals put in shelters they're probably serious.  They live for that shit.
