"They go about this in the wrong way. I don't understand why they don't see it. They take symbols important to people they want to "educate" and blaspheme them to make their point. Just makes me want to kick their arses and eat a lot of meat."

I am beginning to think that they do see it. They know it is insulting and they also know they have NO chance of changing anyone's mind. But they are playing to the big contributors ($$$) that enjoy the controversy.

I need a good hamburger right about now....

[NYer]

the only reference to animals are as beasts of burden and food

... and sacrifice!

Although it's being to snow, I feel like firing up the barbie and roasting some pork ribs. Come over for Christmas. My mother makes a honey ham that will make you eat your fingers.

Good thing was not Mohammed, Bush would have been all over PETA.

[Barnacle]

PETA's god IS a sacrificed chicken!

Hey! You've hit pay-dirt on that one.

[OpusatFR]

How about PETA doing this tasteless one?

A chicken looped with barbed wire hanging on a fence?

They wouldn't dare because it would offend their constituents and the wrong politically correct group.

Come over for Christmas. My mother makes a honey ham that will make you eat your fingers.

What kinda of BBQ sauce does she use on her spotted owls? I used a most wicked honey/tabasco mix that makes the owls tast like week old chicken.

[cyborg]

Homemade. Sometimes she'll use this volcanic pepper sauce stuff my grandmother brings up from Trinidad. Not only spotted owls, but makes protected Canadian geese take like buffalo wings.

LOL, two minutes before I saw this thread, I sent my wife to Wendy's to get me some chicken nuggets. YUM.

I actually had to laugh over this one, even tho' I admit it's highly offensive.

Kudos to Fox News for airing the anti-PETA ads.

[talleyman]

Trashing meat & Christianity on the same billboard - for them, it's a two-fer.

[Cyclops08]

People, this is a HATE CRIME. PETA deliberately set out to offend Catholics. They chose the city because of its Catholic majority.

This is a Hate Crime, and it will be ignored.

[Sloth]

It was all a misunderstanding. PeTA thought she 'the blessed Vegan Mary'.

[cinFLA]

According to God, we have dominion over the beasts of the field.

If you READ Genesis, you will note that he gave man dominion over the animals BUT said to eat the seed and fruit of the tree! "Dominion" did NOT mean to eat them.

[oyez]

Do think PETA has a special Bible were the word "lamb" appears it is replaced with "chicken"?

That's the PETA I like best. This other group is for the birds! LOL

People For the Ethical Treatment of Aminals uses pretty offensive tactics. Remember their spoof the Got Milk? ad - Got Beer? Yuk.
