Correction. The noisy group doesn't know it, but PETA really stands for

People Eating Tasty Animals. ;-)

Ack! Fox News had a segment a while back on PETA's campaign to put dogs on

diets of steamed vegetables. They did an experiment where I think they had a

bowl of meat and a bowl of steamed broccoli and the dog went for the meat. It

was just one dog one time and it was more to make fun of PETA than to prove

anything, but it was hilarious.

Also read last year that they were trying to get the town Hamburg, where the

hamburger was invented, to change its name, and offering a considerable sum of

money.

They were also trying to get McVeigh to stop eating meat before he

was executed so he could make what was left of his life have some meaning. He

wrote back to them something to the effect of " Sorry, but I don't have much

time left. You might want to try the Unabomber, " and gave contact information.

lol!

hmm, let's see, if meat causes impotence and all traditional cultures

have eaten meat, then.... how is our species alive right now?

i don't think smoking and drunken driving are controversial public

issues, so i don't understand the claim that CBS's policy is

inconsistent...

whatever...

i get angry when i read stuff like this. that is nothing short of abuse. you

friend should get a vegetarian animal instead of a carnivorous one if he/she

insists on forcing it to eat a vegetarian diet. it's like feeding a pet cow

an all meat diet. @%^#!

Well shoot, they do that too! Baby calves get fed cow blood

for " milk replacer " . Kind of sick, when you think about it ...
