PETA Uses "Microwave Baby" Case as Billboard Inspiration

SACRAMENTO — A national animal rights group is using a recent Sacramento case about a mother allegedly microwaving her child to death as the inspiration for an ad campaign.

PETA released a statement to FOX40 explaining the new billboard “that features the image of a person who is about to pop a pork chop into the microwave next to a picture of a loving mother pig and reads, “Everybody's Somebody's Baby. Go Vegan.’”

The group says they are in negotiation with outdoor advertisers to put up this billboard “in the wake of Tuesday’s arrest of a Sacramento woman for allegedly microwaving her infant daughter”.

Ka Yang faces allegations she put her 6-month-old child in the microwave and turned it on. The baby girl was found dead earlier this year. Yang admitted to Sacramento officers she had a seizure and dropped her baby on a space heater. However, investigators say that is not possible based on the burn marks, which they identified as being from a microwave.

Yang was assigned a public defender at a Thursday court hearing, she’ll be in court again on July 14th.

PETA’s founder, Ingrid E. Newkirk stated in the press release that all animals mourn the loss of their babies when they are taken away.

This shows how delusional PETA types are. Come to rural Ill.
and I'll show you just what loving mothers hogs are. I've
seen them eat their litter.

This is what PETA does, it is always purely shock value to get their name in print, and it works.

Mark Levin talked about PETA killing appox 90% of the animals they collect. It’s about the same for the American Humane Society.
A search on his site will bring up the articles, and a startling spread sheet.
I’m not gaga over dogs and cats, but his report made me sick.

But how well does it work? Stuff like that might recruit aspiring wackos and college freshmen, but to many others it makes them look like the moonbats they are.

What they need is a squealing piglet strapped to their back and dumped in the middle of a 100 acre field full of sows.

Just hope somebody videotapes it for me.

I think they are more a social group that enjoys their well funded club, and tweaking the culture, I don’t think that they have any end game, the being, the activism, the outraging of the straights, the smug club superiority, is it’s own reward.

In a Vega -- a green one.

There are exceptions. Nobody's gonna mourn when you go, Ingrid.

If the one I had was any indication, you probably didn’t see it because it was hiding behind the self made fog bank.

The Pinto threw a rod a few years before I got the Vega.

The Vega was actually a decent car despite the low oil mileage.

No, they didn’t miss it.They were planning to put up that billboard herein the Dayton area, but I think nobody would sell them the space.
Their proposal created plenty of negative publicity.
