OMG!! PETA HAS GONE TOO FAR THIS TIME

Seriously, PETA? Are you kidding me? This is the most idiotic waste of time any person has ever spent writing a letter. Gemma Vaughan, PETA's animals in entertainment specialist (what?), recently wrote a letter to the organizers in charge of Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog used for the yearly event, asking that he be replaced by a robot. WHAT? Why, you may ask? Vaughan claims Phil is "forced to be on display year round at the local library and is denied the ability to prepare for and enter yearly hibernation." I am sure she had a long conversation with Phil about this. She claims groundhogs are shy animals and "become easily upset when confronted by throngs of people, loud noises and camera flashes." Again, I'm sure from a sleepover she had with him. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! The groundhog is very well cared for and beloved by everyone. Give me a break! PETA's executive vice president Tracy Reiman thinks an animatronic Phil "would attract new and curious tourists' to Punxsutawney's annual event." She, of course, is wrong. I say replace these two crazy people with robots and be done with it. When asked for a comment about PETA's statement, Punxsutawney Phil said, "They can eat me. Well, they wouldn't, but they can." I made that up. I don't talk to groundhogs like PETA does.[source]
