&lt;blockquote&gt;Brings up the question - why doesn’t PETA protest carnivorous animals? Shouldn’t we be doing all we can to get Lions, Tigers, Wolves, etc to become herbivores?

Send a jar of Jif to your nearest zoo.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

On a fantastic episode of Futurama, some hippies taught a lion to eat tofu - it was very sickly and emaciated.

------------------------------------

Penn &amp; Teller have this great series on Showtime called Bullsh!t.  I don&#039;t agree with everything they say, but their episodes on PETA and gun control are absolutely must-see.  They also tear into people who talk to the dead, college/diversity, and conspiracy theory/truthers.

Put it on your Christmas list.</description>

		<description>I am a vegetarian. Peta has nothing to do with vegetarianism. Their &quot;support&quot; of vegetarianism is just as contradictory as conservatives supporting the FDA.</description>

		<description>If I was still living in Hampton Roads, I would be having a nice picnic dinner of Turkey, et al across the street from the peta offices.
This would be followed with lots practice of turkey calls, non-alcoholic bubbly and attended by folks in kilts. (think Braveheart) :)
Heck, I would even send some grub over to the folks on the NOAA ship piered up nearby.
&lt;strong&gt;I hope everyone has an enjoyable Thanksgiving and see you guys soon.&lt;/strong&gt;
&gt;

		<description>PETA is a terrorist organization. Newkirk should be in prison for terrorism. If I had my way, it&#039;d be at Gitmo.

Members of PETA (and all Vegans) should be denied all medical treatments and drugs developed since WWI as they were all first tested on animals.

No cancer therapies.

No surgery requiring anesthesia.

No setting of broken bones.

No pacemakers or implanted defibs.

No antibiotics, sulfa drugs, antivirals.

No vaccination for ANY disease, and this applies to their children, too. It especially applies to their children! Let momma and poppa&#039;s VEGANISM be their bulwark against polio, whooping cough, tetanus, and influenza.

No pain killers, no anti-arthritis medications.

No blood transfusions or organ transplants.

Vegans are against the use of animals for testing. To insure that they are not &quot;corrupted&quot;, they should be DENIED use of any of the above. We wouldn&#039;t want them to compromise their beliefs, would we?

When they get sick or old, they either live or die using pre-modern methods of treatment (like &quot;bleeding&quot;) or they recover on their own. No loss to the rest of us if they expire because of their stupid beliefs.

I&#039;ve adopted this saying: &quot;The only good vegan is one who is suffering from beri-beri.&quot;

Yeah. I&#039;m a hard ass this morning. It happens every time I see terrorist Newkirk on TV or see that stupid, bird-brained HepC infected cow, Pammy, on TV.</description>

		<description>Any discussion of Animal Rights must begin with an understanding of what the Animal Rights ideology is.  

To an Animal Rights activist, an animal and a human are of equal moral value, and if it is ethically or morally impermissible to do something to a human, it is as impermissible to do it to an animal.

AR people have coined the term &quot;speciesism&quot; to demonize discrimination based on species differences, trying to draw emotional support for their cause by likening it to &quot;racism,&quot; &quot;ageism,&quot; &quot;sexism&quot; and any other &quot;-ism&quot; you&#039;d care to invent.

It is this human/animal moral equivalency that separates AR from Animal Welfare.

But AR advocates have a problem:  to a person, they all advocate spaying and neutering animals.

If, as they assert, animals are equally deserving of &quot;rights&quot; as humans, how can they support depriving animals of their right to reproduction, sexual pleasure, the joy of raising offspring, and subject them to the risks of surgery that mutilates their organs of reproduction, if they don&#039;t also advocate spaying and neutering humans for the same reasons (like overpopulation).

And how can PeTA justify killing animals merely because they are sick or unadoptable?  

Aren&#039;t these just the creatures who are most deserving of PeTA&#039;s protection, especially if their condition was caused by cruel humans in the first place?

		<description>No matter how much they wish, PETA members will never turn themselves into ruminants.  Of course, with modern medicine, they could file down their canine teeth, have their stomachs converted into 3 chambers, and learn to regurgitate in order to chew their cud.

They can also have their eyes moved to the side of their heads, and have their ears moved to the top of their heads facing forward.

Man is a predator in biological terms. Binocular vision, canine teeth, etc.  Our bodies are well equipped to use and digest animal protein, which is an efficient source of protein.  

So, what PETA member is going to be the first to go through the &quot;conversion&quot;?  Hope they show the surgery on Discovery - I&#039;ll watch it intently while dining on a still mooing steak.</description>

		<description>Ms Newkirk&#039;s favorite movie is probably Soylent
Green.
She&#039;d rather we were the main course instead of some
goofball turkey.
We&#039;d all better hurry up and eat all of the cattle
before their methane emissions really do affect
global warming.
See? One can be a carnivore and still be an environmentalist.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Milwaukee Mike said:
I’d like to see them press on this “after care” for pardoned turkeys.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Does that mean rest homes for turkeys?  Or are they going be retrained for a different career than &quot;dinner&quot;?

And I hope Hillary would include them in her universal health care plan.</description>

		<description>I am reminded of people in far off lands that enjoy the taste of human. Perhaps Ms. Newkirk has a thought about their dietary habits. Or does she approve of that particular type of animal consumption?</description>
