Well if Sharon doesn't want her brain scan by PETA, I'll take it.

Hollywood, CA (BANG) - Sharon Stone has been offered a free brain scan. Animal rights group PETA are determined to discover why Sharon "demonstrates a lack of empathy" towards animals by wearing fur, and so have written her a letter telling her they would be willing to pay for the scientific scan.
The letter reads: "Scientific studies suggest that the prefrontal regions of the brains of people who lack empathy might be underdeveloped. Here's our offer - would you allow PETA to pay for a scan of the prefrontal region of your brain to determine if comments and actions that seem to demonstrate a lack of empathy are the result of a physical defect?
"We urge you to undergo this test at our expense. With help, you might be able to develop empathy and curb your urge to scoff at various forms of misery and violence."
PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) also blasted the 'Basic Instinct' actress for the comments she made about the devastating earthquake in China earlier this year.
Sharon sparked outrage when she described the natural disaster as "karma" for the way the country was treating neighboring Tibet.
The letter continues: "Given that millions of people - including children - were killed, injured, and left homeless by the recent earthquake in China, everyone was shocked to hear you dismiss the devastating effects of this disaster."
"However, your cavalier attitude did not come as a surprise to us. We are used to the indifference that you flaunt and the callous remarks that you make about the suffering and death of the animals whose fur you wear so often."
The only animals Sharon dislikes are her fellow cougars.
Would her “famous” scene in the movie “Basic Instinct” be a consideration here?
>>”We are used to the indifference that you flaunt and the callous remarks that you make about the suffering and death of the animals whose fur you wear so often.”<<
If PETA is so ‘USED’ to the indifference, why now?
...BTW: just had BBQ’D hamburgers, steaks and chicken for our 4th of July! Yummy!
She need not bother. The arrogance of the “offer” from the PETA pimps is a clear marker of their sociopathic behavior. A reply on her part should consist of two parts.
First an acknowledgment of the level of disrespect on the part of PETA for their unsolicited derogatory remarks regarding Miss Stone’s mental health regarding the China disaster remarks they, PETA, redirected to garner attention to their “pet” issue.
Second, a clear statement of the underdeveloped, juvenile and immature nature of the disrespect for another American Citizen's freedom of choice.
I think turning her back, flipping them the bird and farting in their general direction should cover it.
PETA, trying to divert attention from their dog killings.
Well if Sharon doesn't want her brain scan by PETA, I'll take it.
I refer you to post #3 as my initial response to this.
*Sigh* I really f*cking hate peta for being socialists and all around nut jobs but I’m also a vegetarian... How should I taunt these nuts without selling myself out?
Free brain scan? OK, but PETA will find there is nothing up there. The reading is flat. Nothing.
Some generous offer. A scan of Stone’s walnut sized brain should takes minutes and cost pocket change.
You are a vegetarian by your own choice, and you do not force your choice on others. I don’t think that you would be selling out at all.
It is touching that people who are so desperately in need of brain scans themselves would offer to pay for one for Sharon Stone.
