PETA: Naked chicken corpses aren't sexy
The Weekly Times ^ | 02/07/2013

ANIMAL welfare extremists want to ban the display of naked chickens in supermarkets.

They also protest against pictures of raw chickens in ads, The Weekly Times reports.

The American founder of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, president Ingrid Newkirk, criticised a newspaper for running a picture of a raw chicken.

"We don't want to see any chickens on display, but instead want them to live natural, happy lives with their families.

"Sexily displaying the corpse of a chicken who has been bred to grow so big, so quickly, that many collapse under their own weight, is just additionally offensive."

Other supporters expressed disgust at the sight of plucked chickens in supermarkets.

A PETA spokesman said the organisation wants everyone to go vegan.

If memory serves, there were 14,000 in the upper barn and 28,000 in the lower barn. Among other pleasantries, I used to need to "pick" the dead ones. Fun. But, what the heck, at 12 or 13 I didn't know any better. (The horror! I worked..for money!....before I was 'of age'!!!)

My next door neighbor used to raise Guinea Hens. They were so stupid that they'd fly up on the woodpile and not know how to get down. Guy used to knock them off with a broom so that they'd not starve to death. True story.

I don't want to have sex with a chicken, I EAT them!

Thinking of PETA reminds me of a joke.

Why did the pervert cross the road?

You will have to figure the answer out.Because if I give the punch line I would get kicked off here.

But I didn’t worry about it, because I figured “how far can you coast on charm?”
Pretty far actually.

You just can’t make this stuff up. Not if your head is on straight.

For a moment the PETA protest reminded me of those prim Victorian times when proper people never said words like leg, breast or thigh in mixed company. Instead they asked,

“Would you like a drumstick?”

“Do you prefer white meat or dark meat?”

(This is making me hungry)

It does raise a question: What, in newkirk’s mind, would be a sexy display of an animal? And, of course, how often does she equate sex and animals?

If you think that is sexy you should see how sexy it is to clean them up for that picture!
