Topeka, Kan. — Hoping to prompt Topeka’s lunch crowd into realizing that whether fish, foul—or 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. PETA’s 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 corpse—to smell them cooking, you can’t tell the difference," says PETA Campaign Coordinator Mike Brazell.

I won't feel too bad if their fake smoked cowboy is of the brokeback mountain variety. I betcha he'll taste just like chicken!
Dang... can't find the old "Far Side" cartoon titled "At the Donner Party Memorial" (sculpture of giant sandwich - a dismembered foot between two slices of bread).
"That isn't the way it happened"
The insane crew strikes again...PETA- the same organization that has even begun a direct attack on Christianity with their Christian Vegetarian Association which claims that Christ taught against eating meat (what about Romans 14:6?). My personal belief is that PETA is another tool of Satan to try to dilute and eventually to try to destroy Christ's message.
Just as Christians are chosen by God and given talents to do t heir part to further His Kingdome, so are the pawns of Satan who are chosen and appointed jobs to further Satan's cause.
I'm all for reasonable treatment of Animals - it breaks my heart if I make a shot on a deer and it doesn't go down immediately...no-one wants a quick & clean kill like I do. But when animals are elevated to the same social status as humans (or above), I have a real problem. The Bible is quite clear that Mankind has dominion over the beasts of the earth. We are stewards - in other words we are to use the animals in a responsible manner.
And besides - animals tend to taste better when they die quickly... Now where's my steak??
I'm the world's only straight male member of the Audubon Society in his 30's.
"Hey, you're cutting into his butt!"
"What kind of piece ~do~ you want?"
"Well... not butt!"
No, they don't. Every one of these nutcases that would hysterically defend a sewer rat's right-to-life has no qualms about killing unborn humans. They place animals higher than humans.
Is there gonna be nekkid girls?
"Lighten up"
'He served his friends well - with fries and slaw...'
You may want to research hummingbirds a little more thoroughly. They do eat bugs.
Not that kinda "Burning Man."

"Intersting... tastes just like chicken."
I just stared at it and the cashier next to me was mortified *LOL*
MEAT IS DINNER!
Does PETA have an official position on "womyn's reproductive rights"?
