This is just beyond words....

 

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals announced plans Monday to run a billboard near the U.S.-Mexico border that parallels the separation of migrant families with the separation of cows at dairy farms.

PETA said it would support the billboard in San Ysidro, California showing a mother cow and calf next to the words, “Loving Mothers and Their Children Should Never Be Separated. Go Vegan.”

There is a push to get rid of cows. I see articles fairly often pushing eating bugs as sustainable protein and eliminating cows. Then I see articles claiming that cows produce methane, greenhouse gas, global warming, the sky is falling etc.

I feel like PETA had a purpose at some point in the past, but now it's just posing naked in public like a Thanksgiving turkey, or this, comparing people to animals and going on and on about veganism.

We aren't supposed to eat our livestock? The livestock is what produces methane gas, though. If we aren't eating them, then they're just going to keep on farting and making the temperature all the more humid. There is nothing natural about this flatulence; we should force the cows to take alka-seltzer. :rolleyes:

You'd think the protesters would be up in arms about this.  Sounds like an insult to me.

Let's face it: without PETA, there would be a lot of liberal vegetarians and vegans without a banner to wave in folks' faces. Not to mention that they get 33 million a year in donations (and 2 million in sales of merchandise), yet say that they gave "$843 thousand in grants to researchers looking at animal alternatives" (That sounds like a lot until you compare it to the 33 million). That's 2 percent of their donations, as opposed to 17 percent spent on fundraising.

So they are getting a ton of money to essentially harass people for eating meat. I wonder how much of that goes to paying folks who sit in an office drinking soy-milk lattes?

They probably also pay "professional protesters" to protest for them!   I think most people have jobs and are too busy to protest....trying to put food on the table and pay the rent.   Who has time to protest?

The insanity continues.
PETA didn't like the animal cookies behind bars. They wanted them cage free and got their inordinate wish.

I hope they don't read this, next thing they'll want will be plant crackers, as People are Eating Tasty Animals. :o


"PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman says she's celebrating the box redesign for the cultural change it represents.
"The new box for Barnum's Animals crackers perfectly reflects that our society no longer tolerates the caging and chaining of wild animals for circus shows," she said."

I prefer the latter than former. I personally do not like caging animals, unless where safety is concerned. Animals i belive should be treated ethically and avoid causing unnecessary pain on them n the preservation n etc but of course sometimes PETA overdo things like shoving "being vegan" on ppl's face or throat. I believe one can be an animal lover and still not be a vegan. God gave animals to eat, but that dont mean we cause these animals sufferings. 

With regards to equating humans = animals, i remember a song as a child, i think Disney song:

You are a human animal 
You are a very special breed 
For you are the only animal 
Who can think, 
Who can reason, 
Who can read. 
Now all your pets are smart, that's true!

But none of them can add up 2 and 2
Because the only thinking animal
Is You! You! You! 

You are a human animal 
You are a very special breed 
For you are the only animal 
Who can think, 
Who can reason, 
Who can read. 

The cow goes Moo! 
The dog goes Ruff! 
The cat Meows
And the horse kicks up his hoof! 

And so the only human animal 
Is You! You! You! 

You are a human animal 
You are a very special breed 
For you are the only animal 
Who can think, 
Who can reason, 
Who can read. 

The pig goes Oink! 
And the mule Hee-Haw! 
The duck goes Quack!
And the sheep Baa! 

And so the only human animal 
Is You! You! You!! 

You are a human animal 
You are a very special breed 
For you are the only animal 
Who can think, 
Who can reason, 
Who can read. 

The chick goes Bawk! 
And the coyote Oooowww! 
The birds tweet tweet 
And the fish goes Blub, blub, blub! 

And so the only human animal 
Is You! You! You!!
