[Defiant]

They should sell fish and PETA chips. “Guaranteed to have absolutely no brains!”

[Exit148]

I don’t like the name PETA. I could go on as to why, but I don’t want to be vulgar.

[smoothsailing]

You’re a saint, I refuse to put up with drunk and rowdy chickens. NO BEER! NO TV!

[xzins]

When drunk and rowdy they are definitely a terror....heart attack country for the unsuspecting.

[Zeneta]

I don’t like the name PETA. I could go on as to why, but I don’t want to be vulgar

So, your first name is Pet and your last name begins with an A?

[smoothsailing]

I’ve heard that if the hens drink too much they lay pickled eggs.

[Baltimore ken]

Just another Democrat faction with too much time on their hands.

[xzins]

Have you ever had those dark chocolates with liquor inside?

If you feed them beer, it’s hard boiled with a Guinness center. Would make an Irishman cry....

[matt04]

I would like to introduc you to someone, ye olde fryolator.

[jsanders2001]

An organiztion nemed PETA shouldn’t be casting stones in glass houses. Their name sounds like a phallic symbols itself...

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

I BARELY got mine calmed down after reading this story to them.

PETA director Mimi Bekhechi said the name should be changed to “Ye Olde Clever Cocks” because that would “celebrate chickens as the intelligent, sensitive and social animals they are,” according to an article in the Mirror.

Hmm..

Notre Dame

“Ye Olde Clever Irish”

Maybe they are on to something!

Doesn’t Norte Dame have a chess club.

> Next thing you know, they'll be holding funerals for frozen chickens.

Please, PLEASE, tell me that was satire.

Some days I'm so embarrassed by my fellow human beings...

On the one hand, I'm proud that my Nation is so free as to allow these idiots to put on this show. On the other hand, what a pack of idiots.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

I demand PETA change their name because it is offensive to people named Peter.

[Darren McCarty]

As Foghorn Leghorn would say, "I say I say those folk bout as sharp as a bowlin' ball."

I think the term "cocks" has the other meaning than what PETA's referring to here.

[Unam Sanctam]

The problem is that in this day and age, the pub will probably give in to this lunacy.

[Exit148]

Lol! No. Sounds too much like WeeWeeTa. That’s the direction I was going. They don’t like the way a name is? I don’t either —— with theirs.

[shibumi]

No - It was real.

They had to call the cops to get rid of the PETA creeps.

[Iron Munro]

Change the name to "Ye Old Whining Bitches"

[JimRed]

How about “Dueling Phalli”?
