		<description>Peta is hypocritical. I agree the bat should not have been hurt but I'm tired of seeing them in the news defending one animal here and there knowing they are killing thousands on streets and in their own headquarters. They are setting examples for other horrible organizations like my own humane society that truckloads animals in the middle of the night to kill them though the face they have presented to the public is a spay-neuter clinic.
Organizations like these should have their exempt status stripped from them. Read more:

		<description>Adam,
I appreciate your insight and admire your stance against puppy mills, I'm with you 100% there.  But if you look at PETA's position from a less literal level, you'll see that the point they are trying to make is that animal abuse isn't acceptable at any point in the food chain.  Faulty logic can easily take someone from "it's just a bat" to "it's just a pit bull."   A lot of impressionable kids attend/watch NBA games, teaching them to kill anything that interrupts their entertainment is a bit disturbing.
BTW, I've been in a building with loose bats on many occasions and in every case the bat was evacuated unharmed and no people suffered either bodily injury or mental trauma.  It's basically a squirrel that can fly, for Chrissakes, how would you react if a squirrel was loose and someone killed it in the middle of the court?   
And if you don't believe me about leaps of logic, read some of the posts - one makes the leap from bat to mountain lion in a single sentence.  I rest my case....</description>

		<description>Well, I guess we need to have PETA reps on hand at every NBA game should this happen again.

I also thought the bat was just stunned.</description>

who allows peta to post any comment on the matter. Media should not post their comments, they are useless.</description>

		<description>I thought he just stunned the bat - how dumb.  I'm sure when the next mountain lion accidentally gets into an arena and starts mauling players and fans - peta will be there to tell the world they shouldn't have killed the animal that did that either.  MORONS!</description>

		<description>Jaydog, I'm with you  "We hope that the next time someone’s life is on the line..." as if Manu just killed someone. Brilliant. Now PETA, go away for 6 months until you have another moment to stick your head out and try, TRY to make headlines.</description>
