I wonder what PETA's stance on abortion is...
Well, they do kill a lot of animals. Look up Penn & Teller's show Bull**** about PETA.

As long as you don't wear the fetus afterwards they're leniant.
(bad joke, I know)

Hehe... I have a dark sense of humor and I did chuckle.
Maybe so, but I would see it as hypocritical for them to support abortion and deny unborn humans personhood while demanding we extend that right to some animals.
None of them.
In other news, fertilized human eggs aren't people either.
Dolphins are incredibly intelligent to the point of sentience. I would not want to see them suffer.
Going on from the PETA thread, the argument is that smart animals should be granted personhood, and/or special legal protection, so after doing a few seconds of research, I found a list of the top 10 smartest animals. Should you agree that some animals should be granted personhood, which of the animals would you like to see as people?
There should really be a name for highjacking a generic rights thread and turning it into an abortion-rights thread. Kind of like the whole "godwin"/hitler thing.

Digsbe started it.
I've never looked it up but from the name, PETA don't seek personhood for animals, just that we treat them ethically. What's so bad about that?
Don't factory farm, let animals live as decent a life as we can, with food, shelter, and access to the open air before we humanely kill, and eat them.

Taking Killer Whales (actually dolphins) from the wild to live an unnatural insanity-causing life for our "entertainment" isn't ethical.

I wonder if PETA supports spaying and neutering people. :lol:
Is Cass Sunstein in on this nonsense as well? Didn't he advocate that trees/animals should have lawyers?
