Q: What's the Swedish word for "lousy hunter"?
A: Vegetarian.

LOL!

PETA never ceases to amaze me with what they will and won't do.

Can we get them to run in front of the bulls first?
Thanks for the find!

[1rudeboy]

Yeah, this'll last (see e.g., Ann Arbor's "Naked Mile").

The site reports that 200 activists from around the world have already registered,

OOOOO! 200 people internationally have registered!

Since they're liberals, I wonder if any of them have registered TWICE! :)

Hollywood starlets like Jennifer Lopez, seen here in 2003, have been seen wearing luxurious pelts, as has supermodel Cindy Crawford, who 10 years ago spearheaded the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)'s anti-fur protest entitled 'I'd rather go naked than wear fur'.(AFP/File/Nicolas Asfouri)

Like to see them run their nudes in Fargo today....Wind Chill is like -50

I understand the whole "get naked and make a statement" thing, but why they insist the poor gal in the cage have her elbows rubber-banded together (with one of them being glued to her knee) is beyond me. Sheesh!!

[Darksheare]

I remember that one.

I'm willing to bet she'd have a problem with modeling for a drawing.
In my experience, the nudist nut PETA types have no problem with streaking through crowds showing everything they have, yet think artistic work is disgusting and overly worshipful of the human form.
(I've run into some really interesting people!)

Note to PETA...FURS ARE ALREADY DEAD!!!

[treffner]

I know, they should run at the same time as the bulls, why do it ahead of time. get them all naked and let them run alongside/with their precious animals.

I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food.

A Connecticut woman has even been photographed around the region naked, save for body paint, pasties and a thong in PETA's name, protesting circuses. With her coating of tiger paint and not much else, the woman has appeared holding protest signs inside a cage.

Say what you will about PETA, they have ensured that their "Rather Go Naked than Wear Fur" models are always really good looking.

As long as they maintain that quality control, PETA will get no gripes from me. :-)

Send them to our town......Tomorrow....it'll be 20 degrees!!

P.S. I like my 100 year old seal coat the best!!

I'm a memeber of PETA:

Recently some of us were trying to con the DU'ers into protesting the inauguration in the buff.
I know, sadistic to torture the DUmmies that way.
But, the satisfaction of duping the dupes into being frozen blue DUmmies would have been fun.

*sigh*

It will take more work I guess.

Since they're liberals, I wonder if any of them have registered TWICE! :)

LOL! Probably.

But, I'm sure many PETA members follow in the same circles as the dangerous and destructive ELF organization too.

J-Lo and fur. Gives you a warm fuzzy doesn't it.
