PETA requests sign to memorialize fish

Really:

An animal rights group is asking a California city to put up a sign acknowledging the suffering of fish that died in a traffic incident.

Irvine resident Dina Kourda wrote a letter to city officials on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals asking for a sign to be placed at the site of the October crash to recognize the suffering of hundreds of saltwater bass that died when a truck carrying the fish collided with two other vehicles Oct. 11, The Orange County Register reported Tuesday.

Kourda said she wants the sign to remind truck drivers of their responsibility to the animals who are "hauled to their deaths every day."
Tell you what, Dina:... aw, what the heck, better let it go...

And if not, this is my proposal for the sign.

To hell with a sign! How about a memorial fish fry?

Absolutely! As soon as another truck turns over...

They weren't letting the fish drive, were they?

Who knows. The fishes were silent on that matter.
