Dont get me wrong. I have no objection to anyone choosing to be a vegetarian, a Vegan, or pro-Ana for that matter. Short of cannibalism by murder, everyone should eat and not eat whatever they want to.I was married to a vegetarian and was a vegetarian, myself for five years after my divorce. I even wrote an article in 1986 regarding my ignored suggestions to McDonalds and Burger King that they could get customers like me in who wasnt frequenting their fine establishments because nothing was offered for my wife by putting veggie patties on their menu.
But PETA is going typically off the rails with its new campaign to target celebrities who eat meat, in the same way these extremists previously attacked celebrities who wear fur or leather. Making Jessica Simpson their first celebrity target because she sported a T-shirt that reads, Real Girls Eat Meat which if youre dirty-minded like me doesnt necessarily even refer to consuming animal products and by-products is a Lake Pontchartrain Causeway too far.
PETAfeds dont just eat nuts they are nuts.
Vegetarians who morally condemn meat hate nature. They megalomanically claim for themselves a Godlike superiority based on the pathetic fallacy that non-reasoning creatures are as capable of experiencing suffering as self-conscious beings capable of nostalgia, dread, and charity. They have no logical objection to a wolf killing and eating a sheep, or a lion stalking and killing a gazelle for food, but they fancy themselves morally superior to a human hunter shooting and eating a stag. Its not that these insufferable busybodies love animals. Its that they hate their own species, which nature has given a reasoning power they have failed to master.

PETAfeds dont just eat nuts
There are at least three jokes in here that no self-respecting FReeper would touch with a ten foot pole.
Or two five foot Germans.
PETArds.
I wonder how many people who belong and send money to PETA know that they don’t advocate PETS!! They don’t believe animals should be pets, they should be “free”.
Penn & Teller did an episode of Bullsh!t where they showed that PETA was in the business of pet holocaust, exterminating every stray animal they could find, amazing this didn’t get any traction.
I’ve got the figures in the link up in post #20
