Topeka, Kan. Hoping to prompt Topekas lunch crowd into realizing that whether fish, foulor even Frank!a corpse is a corpse, PETA will slather a 10-gallon-hat-wearing effigy of a cowboy with barbecue sauce and pretend to cook "him" on a mock grill downtown tomorrow. PETAs point? That all animals are made of flesh, bone, and blood, just as humans are, and that eating meat entails eating the corpse of an animal who was an individual with feelings, a family, and a distinct personality. In addition to the "human barbecue," activists will hold signs that read, "Meat Is Murder," and give out delicious vegetarian riblet sandwiches to curious passersby:
Date: Wednesday, June 7 Time: 12 noon-1 p.m. Place: Corner of S.W. Eighth and S. Kansas avenues
"People are understandably revolted by the idea of eating a human corpse, which is exactly why they should also lose their appetites at the thought of eating an animal corpseto smell them cooking, you cant tell the difference," says PETA Campaign Coordinator Mike Brazell.

Let them cook Frank. Someone should set up across the street from them grilling steaks and see who draws the larger crowd.
Cute, but I think you'll find only the few examples you listed of 'fat, slow, animals' in the wild... The only ones that are perhaps fat are those who are too big to be prey. Those that are prey, vegetarians such as antelope, horses, rabbits and gazelle survive on lean muscle just as much, or more, as those who chase them.
Remember the islamofacists in Fallujah who burned the bodies of those American contractors? PETA has the same regard for us.
"Dang, can't they get a real cadaver? Surely SOME PETA idiot is willing to give up his life for the cause?"
Maybe they could use aborted human fetuses.
"Apparently, you chosen to be an ostrich. Such hatred for science!"
I admit, I do detest junk science with an ungodly agenda.
These people are nuts.
Of course we eat their corpse! Have you ever tried to eat a live 2000 pound cape buffalo?
He'd recyle you into a compost pile!
These folks are weirder than weird.
Many animals don't eat their own kind either, but consider other spicies quite tasty. As far as PETA's cowboy roast goes, there is no doubt the a PETA-Puffers will enjoy licking the sauce off their "broke back cowboy" effigy. They are a bunch of fruits lickers, after all.
HAHAHA!
Too bad those idiots didn't suffocate. Don't PETA idiots know you shouldn't wrap dry cleaning plasic around yourself?
This is just a wild guess, but I would assume they eat them to survive. You don't just drink beer do you? Of course not. You want a nice rare to medium rare rib eye steak and a baked potato with sour cream, and a few sprigs of steamed asparagus with it.
Like hell it is. It was the most efficient way 3000 years ago. I've seen religious slaughter, be it "Kosher" or "halal" (same thing)
Bleeding an animal to death isn't the best way. And, it doesn't make it taste better either. That's a MYTH. Only properly hanging and curing your meat for a number of days can accomplish that.
The heart doesn't pump all the blood from the meat as this ritual slaughtering implies it's supposed to do.
If there is anything I hate is this "sochet" ( jewish butcher) myth of so called "humane" animal slaughter.
Call it what it is, a religious ritual.
A pneumatic bolt in the head is instant. Shackling an animal and slitting it's throat, and watching it thras around till it dies, ( it's lifted by the hind legs as just after the sochet makes his cut) is NOT the best way of doing things.
No, we are not. I suggest you learn the difference.
ROFLOL!
"I admit, I do detest junk science with an ungodly agenda. "
A. My 'ostrich' comment was uncalled for. Apologies.
B. I respectfully disagree that the classification of species is "junk science" or "ungodly". It's just a classification method.
"No, we are not. I suggest you learn the difference."
Yes, we are. I suggest you get over your fear of science.
I carried my brother to the next door neighbor to get a ride to the hospital.
I am quite familiar with the smell of a "burned" human.
I have never smelled a "burned" steer...you know one with fur and hide, on the hoof so to speak, but I would doubt that the smell resembles that of a nicely seasoned steak on the grill.
I was a freshly minted EMT (pre-paramedic days) and one of my first calls was to house fire where a man was cleaning auto parts in a closed garage using gasoline.
When the fumes built up and eventually reached the water heater there was an explosion and then fire, the man had burns over 90% of his body. It was not a pretty sight.
We got him to the hospital, but he did not survive. It is a hell of a way to die.
Ping to me.
