New Petco betta event...

Or answer questions in store/yahoo fish answers. ;D

Watch them die and just "replace it with a new one".

I can't even believe they are gonna do this!! As if they don't pollute enough bad info and abused bettas into the world, lets have an event now! STOP THE INSANITY!!!

Too bad we aren't all from the same area, cause then we could have a protest outside the store while the event was happening.

Go. Ruin it.
Thank God we don't have Petco here.

I would picket that event. Hand out flyers at the door... maybe I should. Freedom of speech right?

As long as you're on public property (such as a sidewalk) they can't do anything about it. Even if they call the police, all they will say is that you have the right to be there (as long as you're not doing anything harmful or illegal, obviously) and then they'll leave. I have protest experience, and usually anything the company says to you is just an empty threat.

So outside their store is a no, but the street would be a yes? What if it was inside of a mall (like a out door one) but outside their door.

*starts singing* Fish Shall Overcome, then Blowin' in the Fins, then Give Feesh A Chance.

But really ... that's going to lead a lot of kids down the irresponsible pet ownership path. If you can't do anything, what you're doing now is probably better.

You CAN be in front of the store, as long as you are standing on the sidewalk, because they can't OWN the sidewalk, that's public property. An outside mall is the same thing, you can be on the sidewalk in front. You shouldn't be in the street, because the police WILL tell you to move out of the street.

Well, hold on now this may be a chance to get Proactive.. go to the event at your local Petco.. and bring before and after pics if you have a rescue.. and say well, this is what my betta used to look like,when he was in a Vase --say for instance.. then show a pic of what your fishy looks like after PROPER TREATMENT AND CARE then hand out some of Atena's care sheets.. and shock everyone there!!! cuz I am gonna do it that way.. !!
