PETA vs. J.Lo: Behind the scenes of a campaign

While I am no fan of any of these wacko leftist groups, I will at least acknowledge that PETA has the principles to target leftist celebrities. However, I would like to know if they are also targeting the human rights record of the Chicoms, because people in China aren't treated any better than the animals that PETA is trying to save.

And one last piece of advise for PETA:
J. Lo is way too stupid to understand that it is HER furs that you are talking about -- just ask her for a big check and forget about her.

PETA doesn't try to save any animals. They are a Lobby Group that uses fuzzy animals as a front of operation.

You read this and realize that one day these people will be terrorists.

Ingrid Newkirk, the group’s president and co-founder,

A wacko Brit. Fug PETA and all that they do.

[wagglebee]

These people already are terrorists. I live less than ten miles from PETA's headquarters in Norfolk, I've seen the crap they do first hand. My office is less than a block a way for what has always been their favorite billboard to show their disgusting images.

I've seen a picture of her fur......and it aint endangered.

Wonder if the Nazis at PETA will show pictures of themselves killing puppies and kittens at their headquarters.

In one seemingly endless sequence, a man hung a raccoon dog by its back legs, slit it open and ripped its skin away, all as the animal writhed and yelped. The segment closed with the dog pink and bloody and blinking at the camera with the only hair left on its body: its eyelashes.

This animal was being prepared to eat, and I doubt Jlo uses dog fur in her designs. I've seen the same treatment of dogs in Korea, with the animals hung on "fattening" poles and fed at the meat market, before being sold to the "discerning buyer". That being said, it's a terrible and painful way for any animal to be killed and I find it disgusting beyond words.

"Wonder if the Nazis at PETA will show pictures of themselves killing puppies....."

A representative from PETA will be on Talk Radio in Springfield, Missouri tomorrow ( Monday ) Morning.

KSGF, 1260 AM, 104.1 FM has talk show host David Vincent Jecho on from 6 am to 9 am CDT, M - F.

Sometime during tomorrow's show a person from PETA will be on this call in talk show.

I hope Vince has alloted a lot of time for this person, usually the longer they talk to more their foot they put in their mouth.

Hmm, contrast this sympathetic coverage with the coverage of "anti-choice fanatics" or whatever they are called.

Britanny Spears is pregnant?

Thought E.L.F and A.L.F. were already listed as terrorist?
PETA isn't far behind. Once shared a video store que with a PETA nut ( buttons, decorated jacket). As luck would have it, my daughter asked me what the sequal to "Babe" was to be called. I answered: "Bacon". Clerk laughed. Guy left in a huff. Small victories.

Ever wonder why Peta-philes always go after model/actress types for wearing fur/skins and not Bikers?

I'd pay to see that.

[kennedy]

PETA had mulled targeting the star before, only to opt against it: Lopez was engaged to actor Ben Affleck at the time, and half of a couple the group judged too unassailably cute to take on.

We are talking about a deeply committed group of people here.

[BlessedBeGod]

I wonder if PETA cares as much about innocent, defenseless, little human babies being murdered in their mothers' wombs?

Go, J-Lo!

[toothfairy86]

Let those PETA people go to China to protest and see how long they last. They don't care about human life and I seriously doubt that most of these people care about animal welfare either. They just like to make a scene and create chaos.
