PETA Letter About UTC Fishing Team

Chattanooga Fishing Forum

Help Support Chattanooga Fishing Forum:

As crazy as the letter is, it got published in several publications. The false information was not refuted in any of the publications, it was presented in its original form. Those that are less educated about animal behavior and social hierarchy might actually beleive what is written. There may be fence riders at UTC that are just looking for a rallying point to end the fishing team and this gives them the excuse.

I think each of us should write Chancellor Roger Brown a letter and let him know we all support the UTC Fishing Team.
 
Hey guys my name is Taylor Massingill. I am the vice president of the fishing team at UTC. I got on here to post this information. I wasn't surprised to see that it was already being discussed. This letter is absolutely ridculous. I feel like fishing builds character and provides life lessons. This is obviously the opposite of what PETA is trying to prove. Thanks everyone for the support. Please go to the poll in the Chattanoogan and vote to keep the fishing team at UTC. Show your support for the sport of bass fishing. Also, let chancellor Roger Brown of UTC know how you feel about this letter which was addressed to him. Thanks.

While I did vote in the poll, I cant imagine the Chanceler is serioulsy considering shutting down this group. Everybody knows PETA grasps at everything and hopes to one day get a single victory. I am unaware of any major win in their colum in the history of the group.
 
I say we have a fish fry and donate the money to the UTC team. I was a rep for Pure Fishing years ago and we went to a big tournament to promote some new items and peta was there making their protest. Word got out and the local radio station set up a free fish fry right next to the weigh in. It was awesome.

Thats about par for PETA. Those folks are so far removed from the real world...

Some hippie student( PETA member/supporter) probably got this started. I cant believe that it went up for vote!
 
I guess I will carry Bactine on my boat and dab it on their little mouths before I release the poor little critters...
 
JaSkynyrd - 9/15/2010 4:04 PM I googled this woman and she wants Ben and Jerry's to replace cow milk with human breast milk in all of their ice cream, because cow milk is meant for baby cows. That is ALL I need to know.

I'm still thinking aboutfetchingme some fresh milk for myice-cream,,,peta who?</p>
 
Do not rule out sabotage to the channels and the potential for damaging boats and equipment. You know how the radical bunch in them operate, and as you know most of them act to destruct in the name of their cause.

Bout like Al Queda right Spur? No major victories so we should just ignore them so they will go away?

PETA along with the HSUS have stopped or disrupted hunts and fishing tournaments all over this country. They have costed farmers hundreds of millions of dollars which translates to every American paying more for meat. Do a little studying of PETA and you will see that they gain ground on a regular basis. Especially in areas where there are heavier liberal populations.
 
I love this quote by peta "Many positive, cruelty-free club sports are available at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, such as baseball, rowing, and scuba diving." Well I wonder if they are aware of what gloves and baseball covers are made of. I played all the way through college and some independent minor league and every glove I have every used is made of LEATHER which I assume is still made from cow skin. Now there are some that are made out of Kangaroo skin as well but they are expensive but the leather is reaaalllllyyy soft. Every baseball that i have hit, caught, or thrown while I play for my school had a LEATHER cover. I know that the baseballs that the major leagues (and minor league) are made with leather covers. Now I can't remember ever seeing that peta has protested any baseball game and according to the letter peta is PROMOTING baseball now. Well seems like a contradiction to me. What a bunch of , well for a lack of a better word, damn idiots.

BTW I'll have plenty of beef jerky on the boat while I'm out with college team to hand out to those peta guys in case they get hungry or the milfol they're eating doesn't taste too good.
