Angry purchase penguins on the internet???

If this website is for real, it's really disturbing:
http://www.penguinwarehouse.com/index.php

They seem to be treating their penguins as little more than consumer products to be produced and sedated for shipping to any random rich fuck who probably hasn't the slightest idea what's involved in caring for a penguin (ask the zoos about the thousands of man-hours they spend every year just to feed them) or what a penguin needs (mainly, open spaces and lots of other penguins).

Those of you familiar with my political beliefs know that, to say the least, I'm not exactly the biggest supporter of going out and harassing businessmen just to impose my views on them and their consumers. And I always thought animal rights were a stupid idea. Yet now, I'm motivated to do whatever it takes to shut these people down. The idea of taking wild animals and giving them as pets to spoiled brats (who will probably get bored quickly and ignore them once the novelty wears off) makes me sick to my stomach.

Holy shit, I'm turning into a leftist.

Re: purchase penguins on the internet???

The site was a mock up joke site a few years ago. I doubt they started getting any real inventory.

Quick, hit Ali with some leftist views!
We need to take advantage of the booze.
And while he's thoroughly drunk
Make him consider thoughts he wouldn't have thunk
And for leftist politics he we will use.

Look on the bright side.

At least you didn't write a screed on how evil it is to buy endangered species for meat:

Re: purchase penguins on the internet???

Do they make these sites to upset PETA or something (Im not apart of peta or anything)? What next? Making your pets into different shapes . Oh wait they already did that www.bonsaikitten.com.
