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.

An effigy?
Dang, can't they get a real cadaver? Surely SOME PETA idiot is willing to give up his life for the cause?

I think a good counter-protest would be to BBQ a mess of pork ribs on the other side of the intersection and see who gets more takers.

...to smell them cooking, you cant tell the difference...
And they know this how?

I'm not joining their group.
That initiation ceremony sounds a little painful.

This is just the logical next step for PETA. Soon they'll be assaulting and murdering people for eating meat. Standby.

Don't they have anything better to do than hold up signs with titles of "The Smiths" albums?

"People are understandably revolted by the idea of eating a human corpse.....," says PETA Campaign Coordinator Mike Brazell. Not necessarily. Under the right circumstances, cannabalism will occur among civilized people. You had better hope you're never in that circumstance, Mike....you'll be the first one eaten.

Mmmm, barbeque... I think I'll head down to Big Jake's BBQ for lunch today.
Thanks for the idea PETA, you're responsible for an increase in beef consumption by changing my lunch plans.

give out delicious vegetarian riblet sandwiches.Now, that's an oxymoron. Hey,I *love* vegetables.Sweet corn,green beans,spinach,broccoli,carrots...I love 'em.I'm not a big fan of lima beans,peas or Brussels sprouts.
I also love meat.Pork,beef,chicken...love it.
Human beings were meant to be omnivores.It's just that simple.A quick look at the teeth of a healthy adult proves this.

If it is unquestionably wrong to eat an animal "corpse," on what basis can one conclude that it is acceptable to eat a plant "corpse?"
What should be done with all the carnivores and ominvores in the animal kingdom? Shall we police the wilderness to prevent any predation by members of any species?
Shall we also cite and fine parasitic creatures, at least when they cause the death of their host?

From the same group that abort puppies. I guess they equate unborn puppies the same as unborn humans......
