Exactly.

My only problem with this is the waste of a tasty octopus. They could've cooked and seasoned that badboy and detached its parts for a tasty treat. Yum.

No need for cooking ...

I think I've only had raw octopus once or twice.

LOL @ the OP being the only one in this thread who is outraged. Animal rights and common sense have multiple definitions.

From what I gather about PETA, it's really more their mission to rid the world of animals on the guise of protecting them. If there aren't any animals, people can't hurt them, right?

They don't believe that people have the "right" to "own" animals, and that animals should be free. The problem I have with that is because of a thing called "domestication" most pet animals can't survive without some sort of human care. But no worries, that's where PETA comes in with their gas chambers. According to the PETA kills site PETA had a kill rate of 94% of animals in their shelter in 2010. I guess it's better to see dogs and cats dead than (gasp), a HUMAN adopting them.
