‘Hannibal,’ PETA Warn People Eating Turkey for Thanksgiving Are Cannibals

PETA and Hannibal are urging Americans to go vegetarian this Thanksgiving by comparing turkey to human flesh.

It used to be the joke that a Puritan (aka Pilgrim) was someone who lay awake at night worrying that someone, somewhere, was having a good time. There aren't many Puritans around these days. Instead, we have the joyless scolds at PETA, and some of their not-so-bright Hollywood pals, trying to ruin the holiday the Pilgrims originated.

Just in time for Thanksgiving, creator Bryan Fuller and star Gillian Anderson of NBC's cannibal-themed show Hannibal joined forces with PETA to produce an ad against the meat industry: "Anderson's Creepy 'Hannibal' Spot Gives Meat-Eaters Food for Thought." ...

These people remind me of one of my brothers...who would belly up to the table without fail every year but say off-beat, Debby downer things.

One year it was “But what about the people in Biafra???”

So I offered to buy him a plane ticket there so he could help out. I also tried to take his plate away since he obviously had moral objections to the evil Thanksgiving meal. I thought he was going to stab me with his fork.

That's racist. The only reason I eat turkey is because of "climate change."

Every year the same thing. I remember the first time I saw a news report on vegetarians talking about how they were better then YOU because THEY DON’T EAT MEAT! Back in 1972.

Biafra, eh? The secessionists wore the red fez, showing their Islamic alignment.

Around here, we’d just stake those PETA turds out for the bears and coyotes. Let them get real close to the critters they love so much.

Since I have never delved into his rather foggy mind, I could be wrong about this. But I doubt seriously that he knew about knew about fezes or Islamic alignment.

This was back in the ‘80s when there were non stop commercials about starving children in Biafra.

It was an attempt to make us all feel guilty about having a totally sinful meal...just like these PETA jokers.

“Breakaway Biafra” - the oil-rich part of southern Nigeria. Haven’t heard that in decades.

Used to work for Lawrence Raab, a contract Lockheed Constellation captain for their group. Great guy; deafer than a doornail - got too close to a bomb - it blew out his eardrums.

Well, I’m no turkey, so I am in the clear. As for the people who would push that idea, maybe those turkeys would be in danger of cannibalism...

Kaley Cuoco (big bang theory tv show) makes at/over 1 million per episode.

She’s now doing advertising for donations to/for some animal thing. (I say thing because they all seem to blend together).

I’ll donate here first.

The secessionists in the Biafran war were the Igbo tribe who are primarily Christian

The primary Nigerian tribe in the remaining area who they were breaking off from were Yoruba and Hausa

The Yoruba are around 2/3 Christian and 1/3 Islam and animist

The Hausa are almost exclusively Islam

The secessionist Igbo were the most Christian and accomplished and educated and civilized

Shame they lost
