    Of the orcas. As you could guess the lawsuit is being brought by PETA saying that SeaWorld is violating the 13 Amendment's ban on slavery with the orcas.

    Another example that illustrates why I absolutely hate PETA.

    It's about time we start getting some traction on this serious issue.

    And what about all the people who ride around on horses, like they're some sort of recreational piece of equipment?!? When are we going to clamp down on that one?

    Put an end to the slavery! Equal rights for animals! Affirmative Action for animals in the workplace! These are the things that are of critical importance.

    If I was the judge I would fine PETA $1 billion for wasting the court's time.
