He says that there is no good argument for eating meat, including "It's tasty," because "it’s only tasty once you garnish it and you put salt and pepper and you cook it and you have to do 300 things to it to disguise its true taste. If you put garnishes on a chair or fabric it would probably taste quite nice."

Not true at all. We just roasted a turkey yesterday as is. Basted it in its own juices. I never use salt and pepper. Don't even have salt and pepper shakers in my house. These PETA folks can eat all the chairs they want. I'm sticking with meat.

And what's the deal with dissecting the frogs. Aren't they already dead by the time they get to the schools? How can a dead frog feel any pain?

Hey! Salon is .04 cents per share. Better buy some before they go BK all the way!

BK?!?!? I want a burger!

we dissected baby pigs in my high school, my kids recently disected owl pellets, which is something owls puke up that contains the skeletons of small animals they've eaten.

How does PETA feel about animals eating one another? How will they get animals in the wild to treat each other ethically? Special training? A vegetarian diet for my dog?

Never dissected a frog. However...

For decades in Junior High, every seventh-grade science-class (two teachers taught three class apiece each day) had one lab, where each class was split into two-student teams and dissected a mink. On "mink day", as it was referred to, about ninety minks were dissected.

Come to think of it, that's probably a lot of wasted meat. But at least the pelts were used for mink coats and mink stoles.

PETA. The other white meat.

I didn't want to dissect a frog or a fetal pig, so I was given an alternate project. All one has to do is ask. How'd I do in the class? 4.0... :)

Nothing says "neurotic pseudo-rebel" like PETA membership.

These aspiring cocktail leftists might consider demonstrating their fidelity to the cause by living out the remainder of their lives in a PETA-approved, bacteria-free eco-chamber.

Howard Hughes would be proud.

[I still care]

"I've been a vegetarian for almost two weeks now …" brags one poster on the bulletin boards of the PETA2 Web site for kids. But her mom is still serving pork chops for dinner. "Is there any way I can make my parents believe that I'm doing this for me?" she laments. The other denizens suggest bringing some PETA fact sheets about vegetarianism to the dinner table.

Typical selfish liberal tripe. Kid, Mom cooks the meals, and she LIKES serving pork chops for dinner. If you want to be a vegetarian, try cooking and serving yourself for a change. Bet Mom doesn't care as long as you are healthy and she doesn't have to cook and serve two meals.
