PETA surprises Beyonce at New York dinner

Same as Squirrel.. Rice with a brown gravy. Older cats can be used in chili. Hot Ro-tel, onions, cumin, chili powder, and a packet of red mole flavoring. Served over rice or with saltines.

Well, this is certainly an enlightend thread. I happen to be one of those oddities who is both conservative and an animal rights activist. I find the vitrol on this thread interesting since the anger and insults appear way over the top of what I normally see on this site. It appears someone who can take a stand for animals is much more of a threat to you folks that a liberal, wow, hard to believe. So if eating meat and wearing fur is one of your God given rights and you are unwilling or unable to allow for a different viewpoint then pity you. But as one of the posters wrote, I love to stir you closed minded types up too.

I think she showed class and that PETA exposed what stalkers they are.

Me too. I pray for some of these lowlifes to cross my path. I'd make them scream like a rocky mountain spotted owl. After they digested their camera.

Taking a stand for animals has nothing to do with it. I'm for animal rights myself. There is a right way and a wrong way to deal with people to get your point across. These people crossed the line from legitimate protest to terror tactics and stalking in short order. They are your typical leftist, My Way Only, narrow minded hypocrites. They don't give a damn animals either. It's all about controlling what others do.

They were certainly imaginative in the way they got access, you got to give them that! If she spent 1 minute thinking about the use of fur in her clothing line then it was money well spent. And it was in NO WAY stalking. You confront the people with whom you have the issues and they have done a lot of that. Several designers have stopped using fur as they all should IMHO. And lastly, I don't think you can speak as to what they believe for a certainty. Give any opinion you like, just don't make it out to be a fact!!

Smells closer to FRAUD to me. I watched the video (why they were trying to hide and seemed to have successfully hidden) and felt badly for Beyonce and I'm not even a fan.

Meow! Hiss! Scratch!

My favorite bumper sticker:

I BRAKE FOR ANIMALS. THEN I KILL THEM. THEN I EAT THEM. THEN I WEAR THEIR FUR.

Nice post!

>>>They are your typical leftist, My Way Only, narrow minded hypocrites.

You are not for 'animal rights'. You are for 'animal welfare'.

Quotes from the Animal Rights mindset:

"My dream is that people will come to view eating an animal as cannibalism." – Henry Spira, director, Animal Rights International, as quoted in Barnaby J. Feder, "Pressuring Purdue," New York Times Magazine, November 26, 1989, p. 192.

“Founded in 1980, PETA operates under the simple principle that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment.” – PeTA’s website, August 2000

“I don’t approve of the use of animals for any purpose that involves touching them – caging them” – Dr. Neal Barnard, Physician’s Committee for Responsible Medicine

“We don’t want cleaner cages, we want empty cages.” – Tom Regan, animal rights leader

Whereas, Animal welfare requires humane treatment of animals on farms and ranches, in circuses and rodeos, and in homes, kennels, catteries, laboratories, and wherever else animals are kept. Animal welfare endorses a quick death when death is inevitable and a scientific approach to commercial use and management of wild populations.

Beyonce got "bitch slapped" by PETA.

I am a fashion designer. And, I use butterflies - real butterflies - in all of my pieces.

I get ALOT of flack from ignorant people who are upset that I use real butterflies in my jewelry.

The fact is - ALL of the butterflies I use are farm-raised. Most of them, come from some of the poorest places in the world. I buy DIRECT from the indigenous peoples of the rainforests who raise them. Bfly farming provides a sustainable, renewable resource that does not require clear-cutting of the trees(as traditional farming does). In fact, it requires planting native flora in order to support the butterfly populations one is farming.

So, in essence, I make a product using bugs (that live about 1 week in nature - while, at the same time 99% never live at all as they are eaten - sucks being the bottom of the food chain). I am able to bring the beauty of butterflies to the masses (in stylish, trendy designs no less!) - while creating income for the some of the poorest people - while helping to save the rainforest plants and butterflies themselves (b-fly farming increases local populations) - and yet we STILL have idiots telling us how evil we are for killing those beautiful butterflies (usually while wearing leather shoes and a coat).

It is a win, win, win situation. It increases global wealth - while exacting minimum negative impact on the environment.

And, the most annoying part, to me, is the same self-righteousness ALL animal-rights people have.

For instance, in this case, 40 some people showed up to greet Beyonce. Where do they all live?? In houses - that were built on prime spotted turtle habitat.
How did they get there?? Using their cars - which killed about 100 insects per minute while driving - not to mention that the road was built over the last known habitat for the Silver bordered fritillary butterfly - so they are gone.

What were they wearing??? Oh, t-shirts imported from China - where they destroyed an entire mountainside to make room for the t-shirt factory, then dumped their effluvia into the nearest river - thus killing millions of fish and aquatic insects

But, the self-righteous hypocrites NEVER see any of this....so it is ok by them.

The ONLY way not to have an impact on this planet is to kill yourself - and even THEN you will have an impact.

So, my advice is...get over it. Animals are farmed for a reason. I personally raise about 1000 moths a year (mostly luna) and I feel bad with every bug that I kill ....more than ANY animal rights activist could know.

The difference is that I am a MAN. And, I will do what is needed to survive. Living requires dirty work. ANd, all those vegans who think they are saving animals are incredibly stupid as the farm needed to raise your veggies killed and continues to kill thousands of animals every day - and you all feel so smug, and better than everybody else - when, in reality, you kill as much as anyone - you just aren't human enough to overcome your dainty reservations about killiung - your rather do your killing and not have to face the organisms you killed. I look mine in the eye.

You tell me who is the more honest of us.

>>>>The ONLY way not to have an impact on this planet is to kill yourself - and even THEN you will have an impact.

What makes you think they are NOT for that????

Soros's Death in America link. $oro$ has invested 45 million in his Eugenics for America program. That will buy a lot of judges, mediots, lawyers, politicians and brown shirted electronic posters to push and defend the murder of Terri.

Once again we see the obscene work of George $oro$ in the Eugenics of America or as he has labeled it: "Project on Death In America".

This website, a joint presentation, is intended to promote both organizations’ interests while maintaining their respective transparency.

They don't believe in feral cats either....that's what ticks me off about them.....besides their actual terrorist tactics.

I know they support it. And, as the most ardent supporters of eugenics, they can all volunteer to go first.

Please post pictures of some of your jewlery....I'd like to see that...

ROFL!

Let's mount them!

No thanks, animal rights activists make LOUSY jewelry. I've even tried them as Garden ornaments...too damn ugly. Fertilizer may be their best use after all.....
