And, seriously, PETA's reaction:

Via PETA.org:

To bludgeon a 4-ounce animal to death, it takes either a small man or a totally unthinking one—with no respect or consideration for lives humbler than his own. This is a time when athletes in particular need to be on their best behavior around any animal and show that they have brains and a heart, not just reactionary brawn.

Bats always try to avoid contact with humans, and there are plenty of easy ways to keep bats out of a basketball arena (or your home). 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.

**** PETA.

Bunch of self-promoting jerks who look for any reason possible to take offense to something.

I'm all for being against the senseless torture of animals but slappin a bat, or fly, or moth, or any other pest out of the air isn't senseless torture.

He should have picked it up and bit its head off like Ozzy.......although I think that was a bird, was it not?

Manu actually had to get a rabies shot afterwards as well.

Uhhh, someONE!? Exactly what are the "plenty of easy ways" to keep bats out, BTW?

I love it.

And PETA's response was typically insane.
