It’s scary when you think that there are people who finance PETA! And they are not confined to mental institutions!

Thanks for the comedy intermission. :-)

PETA’s Mimi obviously never raised chickens, like I did. Social, yes, even sometimes funny and cute, but intelligent?? Hahaha*gasp*haha*wheeze*

If a chicken ever makes it to other side of the road, I’ll be amazed but, I’ll hear him out.....

What gets me is the many thousands of animals they kill anually and claim to be for animal rights. I live on red meat and am responsible for fewer animal deaths than their nasty little animal annihilation consortium they purport to be for ethical treatment.

LOL!

It’s just great that they are so concerned about chickens’ sensibilities. Come to think of it, chickens, one of the least intelligent birds, are likely much smarter than they are!

But they still take a few laps around the barnyard.

Good points. Liberalism and hypocrisy go hand in hand.

Agree. Too bad so many young women have been stupidified. No wonder so many American men look for non-American wives.

sensitive and social animals they are,

To add to your comment, if they are so sensitive and social why are they prone to fighting to the death? If it wasn’t in their DNA somewhere they could not be made to fight.

This issue is as close to a real cock as the leader of the UK will ever be.

The whole story is abouth nothing but “poppycock”, “chickenshit” and one wacked out leftist, bird-loving (the next form of marriage?) leftist “bird”, who has too much time on her hands.

Next Mimi will want to ban the Marx Brothers great movie “Horsefeathers” as it demeans “horses”, “feathers” and “horses with feathers”.

Maybe we can ban “featherbrains”.

This whole thing is for the “birds”.
