Does it have the right to a fair trial by a jury of it's animal peers?

I'm not even really aware or care about PETA or even the welfare of food in general but you know very well yourself that you're willfully misunderstanding what they stand for to take the piss out of them.
Lions eat other animals but they aren't in charge of the destiny of just about every living creature on the planet.. for better or for worse - we are.. and with that comes certain responsibilities.
PETA obviously take these responsibilties too far.. but the thing about extremists is that you need them to keep the other end in check. It's not as if they're ever going to convince the world not to eat meat, but having them there in the background isn't exactly having many negative effects.. the less people that eat meat the less resources used so good on them.
