I know, my brother and I always make jokes about PETA. :P You know, not eating/killing animals isn't going to stop other people from hunting/cooking/eating/selling them...

I've been thinking he might have even recorded a video of butchering the rabbit, now IMO that would be sick :P

But this is quite ingenious actually, makes me wish I thought of it :) I'd never swindle folks out of their money, but man it is original LOL

The best thing about this is, I see no legal or moral reasons against the website. If people are dumb enough (and emotionally unstable enough) to donate, let them! :) I especially like how he posted rabbit stew recipes on the site. The hilarity.
