While wandering through some of my usual vegetarian websites I happened
across PETA's store and the videos that they sell.  Imagine my horror at
seeing the following video and the description of it.  Getting Away with
Murder Video
 
This videotape shows tame mice, rats, and rabbits being thrown into an
enclosed tub to be attacked and killed by domesticated ferrets.
 
I'm sickened beyond belief.  Has anyone seen this video?  I don't know
if I want to buy it to see what it has on it or not.  I do want to in
order to find out who's behind it and why it was made.  It's just
horrible though.  I'd hate to own anything that might portray
domesticated ferrets in such a misleading way.  I'm really debating this.
If I did buy it I would probably destroy it after viewing it rather than
keep it in my home.  Then again I don't know if I could stomach the
content.  I know PETA's stance against animal abuse/cruelty, so I don't
feel too bad about the organization getting my money for the video.  I'm
just sickened that the thing even exists.If someone has seen it I'd
rather get a secondhand account of the video's contents, so email me or
reply here.  (as I'm sure this will outrage others as it has myself)
