That pizza looks in marvelous, that bat
I have a mosquito on my foot and I don't know what to do... He is an animal too !
Oh noes, he has feelings!!!

That bat could have gone to any other area of the arena or left completely on its own free will. No one forced it to be there. PETA treats animal like they have brains, and if that bat didn't use his brains to avoid Manu...screw that bat!
Bats are scared of people and try to avoid them, what about vampire bats?! Geez...
Hear, hear!
I think it's stupid that Manu's action is "controversial" shows how lame some aspects of our society has gotten.
It's stupid to see some comments that go out of the way to come off as "sensitive"towards the bat's well being. Why? It's just an animal. If you don't want to kill an animal fine, if you incidentally kill the animal without meaning to be needlessly cruel, then who the cares.
Manu shouldn't have to apologize for anything. It's inconsequential, you smash things that go into your home, and this is no different.
It's a ing rodent with wings.
The whining from the PETA re s, and bat apologists over a tiny bat's life, reminds me of a scene in the movie PATTON, where the novice subordinate troops are held up because there's two mules stuck in the road holding up the jeeps and tank infantry and the troops are exposed to enemy fire because they're hitched to a cart blocking a narrow bridge. The troops are so ineffectual in getting the mules to budge, General Patton finally comes up to see what's the hold up, "Jackasses? You let a whole column get stalled and strafed on account of a couple of jackasses?
What the 's the matter with you?" , pulls out his gun and shoots the two animals and commands the troops drag the carcasses out of the way, toss them over the cliff, and move on.
Problem solved. That should be everyone's philosophy.
. . .But it's not because in the 21st century, the Animals Rights people would cry foul at that cinematic scene, because some humans are as stupid as they please.
Some people spend too much time worrying about animals' well being over their own species'.
PETA
They live for little things like this, therefor they have no lives at all
The Manu I know, wouldn't hurt a fly!
It bit me, as I said it was instinctual. I'm not proud of it, but it was funny.
And my comment about respecting animals was more about the industrialised meat industry, which reduces animals to meat machines. Free-ranging at least gives them some kind of life.
Depends on if they're between him and the basket or not.We hope that the next time someone’s life is on the line, Manu Ginobili will take just a few seconds to think before he acts.
Absolutely. They seem to enjoy wasting the money provided to them by donors.
For only $6 (plus shipping and handling) you can own your very own piece of history!!!
You can even have it directly shipped to the ATT Center as a token of your appreciation!!
this is real? i thought the news about PETA was some kinda joke from someone. Don't get me wrong, i totally respect their advocacy but throughout the years their beliefs had just become perverted and out of hand.
They are freakin' annoying, violent and distasteful! Bludgeon a 4-ounce animal my crap! Manu just stunned the bat, exaggerated morons! The bat was delaying the game, they should be happy Manu swatted it with his soft hand rather than it be hit by the ball or something.
I'd say, PETA should also be sensitive, their killing humans with their stupid comments.
If people showed up at the AT&T Center to protest Manu they would be met with violent opposition from some SA cholos. Bring it on.
I understand trying to advocate for animals and wanting to save them but PETA is way to extreme with their views and especially what happened in this case (by the way the bat didn't even die like they said). They're more concerned about the safety of the bat then they would be with Manu or any other person there. Say what they want to say about how bats are so harmless and all this stuff but what if the bat did go bite someone and had rabies? It shouldn't of been there in the first place. By the way they should know that Manu loves animals. These were on his other facebook page .
By the way it's interesting now to hear Manu say on his facebook that it wasn't a good idea and that bats are a good part of our ecosystem

Update Bat deal // Actualización tema murciélago
Just wanted to give you guys an update on the bat situation. As many of you already know, it wasn't a great idea. Not only for the fact that bats are great part of the ecosystem, but also, because some carry rabies, which is an incurable disease...
And folks thought PETA was hard on Michael Vick.
Manu you go man! PETA - you fail.
No, the car needs $3,000 of work and squirrel runs off with his nuts intact.

PETA is not happy with Manu Ginobili. Not surprising, considering the group also once protested President Obama swatting a fly.

Three points we'd make on Ginobili's behalf:
1) The bat wasn't going to leave the arena on its own. Somebody had to do something.
2) In the immediate aftermath of what PETA calls "the bludgeoning," Ginobili seemed generally concerned about the bat's well-being. He didn't mean to kill it (and now it appears he didn't).
3) Judging by the needle marks in Ginobili's body today, with more to come, it would appear the bat got the last laugh.
ginobili's got a handsome lookin dog there.
I imagine if Many made a generous donation to PETA they'll forgive him soon enough.
PETA is nothing more than attention s
