I hope she comes up with a creative way to tell those sh!#bags to go get f#*ked.
Is this story fur real?
I would love for someone to just say, "I like fur clothing, what's the big deal?" And then just press on as if they asked her about hair color.
PETA is racist. You never hear PETA protest "the other white meat", it's always meat, meat, meat.
Let's just hope she strong enough to stand their intimidation. Beyonce wear fur when you deposit their check.
Thanks for placing the winning bid in the "Have Lunch With Beyonce" contest. Your generosity is appreciated. I plan to use the profits to buy a delicious Russian sable I've had my eye on, and to take a trip to the Aleutians so I can stomp on some baby seal heads.
Again, thanks. Without your contribution, I would have had to tear the heads off chickens and wear corduroy.
Love ya, ... Beyonce.

06-16-06 Beyonce Attacked by PETA Activisists!
Unfortunately for Beyoncé Knowles, she couldn't guess who was coming to dinner. The singer was taken by surprise Wednesday when she dined with some people she believed were fans who had won a meal with her in an eBay auction, but were actually representatives from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which, unbeknownst to Knowles, had placed the winning bid on the dinner date. The organization claimed it had repeatedly tried to contact Knowles by fax, mail, taking out a full-page add in Billboard and even staging demonstrations outside her concerts to no avail. So when the opportunity came up to share a meal with the star, the group jumped at the chance.
According to a release issued by the organization, the PETA activists were picked up by car and whisked to swanky Manhattan eatery Nobu 57, where they used their time with Knowles to grill her about using fur in her House of Dereon clothing line and in her personal wardrobe. To break the ice, one activist reportedly began with an appeal to the ex-Destiny's Child singer:
"Beyoncé, many of your fans would like to know why you don't care about how minks, foxes, and chinchillas are gassed, strangled, and electrocuted for vanity and if you might have it in your heart to recognize that fur is not only cheap and tacky but also horribly cruel."

Video of the conversation, available on TMZ.com, shows a stunned Knowles refusing to respond to the queries and asking others in her group, which included her mother and sister, to do something about her less than welcome guests.
"I don't think people would not like you if you didn't wear fur, you know what I mean? You're so gorgeous, you don't really need to kill animals," one activist persists.
PETA also claims that its fur opponent managed to whisk out a portable DVD player and show the singer footage of animals being trapped, drowned and electrocuted for their pelts.
Eventually, the PETA people were escorted out, despite their claims that they "respect [Beyoncé's] work." The group used the dinner to draw attention to their FurIsDead.com Website, which, unsurprisingly, promotes an anti-fur agenda. A spokesperson for Knowles said she had no comment on the incident. Last week, Knowles announced that she was launching a nation-wide search for an all-female band to back her on her upcoming solo tour. Her latest album, B'Day, will be released internationally on Sept. 4--coinciding with her 25th birthday--and Stateside on Sept. 5.
Would this be the wrong thread to ask if anyone has a good recipe for kitten meat?
Music? Caterwauling to PETA.
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.
