Well PETA is back at it and managed to protest in the streets of Halifax.

My two favorite quotes from the PETA site:

Imagine reaching for an apple on a tree and having your hand suddenly impaled by a metal hook that drags you—the whole weight of your body pulling on that one hand—out of the air and into an atmosphere in which you cannot breathe. This is what fish experience when they are hooked for “sport.”

What’s wrong with catch-and-release fishing?
Have you ever seen an injured dog who has been hit by a car or a cat who’s been seriously hurt in a fight? Unless they are treated by a veterinarian, these animals are likely to die from their injuries. Fish are no different: A hook through the mouth causes a serious and extremely painful injury that is often fatal without treatment. But anglers just toss injured fish back into the water—often without realizing what they’ve done.

Here is the story from CBC and also a link to the PETA anti fishing site...or is it rights for fish site?

Vegetables Feel Pain

Vegetables are Freinds
Not Food!

Cindy Browne, a University of Edinburg hortoculturist who is studying the evolution of cognition in vegetables, says, "Zucchini are more intelligent than they appear. In many areas, such as memory, their cognitive powers match or exceed those of 'higher' vegetables, including non-human primates." Their long-term memories help zucchini keep track of complex social relationships. Their spatial memory—"equal in all respects to any other vegetable"—allows them to create cognitive maps that guide them through their earthy homes, using cues such as polarized light, sounds, smells, and visual landmarks.



Had to write that. I think I am going to make up some T-Shirts and Bumper stickers.

My wife is a vegetarian but not a PETA supporter!

You're wife's a veterinarian and Pita supplier. Sheeesh man, I don't get it. Those darned zachinnis are so smart.

Nice one ET. I'll give ya a greenback for one of them shirts. Can mine say....

IF YOU'RE WITH PETA TELL ME QUICK SO I CAN CUT OUT YOU'RE ADAMS APPLE AND EAT IT INSTEAD OF THIS FINE HORSE.

ET does Cindy Browne have a ministerial job with our federal gov't, if not she is worthy of one

Lord, I'm gonna stop breathing air, I might damage airborne spores and get arrested. Makes you kinda wonder what gives when someone gets more time for cruelty to animals than physical assault against another person.

Wasn't there a recent hullaballoo about how they were killing stray cats that didn't get adopted? Or something along that line...'nuff said

A little bit of truth.. actually I think someone posted the link here on FH a few weeks or months back.

Most people don't know what PETA stands for. It's "People Eating Tasty Animals".

There is room for all gods creatures.....right next to the mashed potatoes!!

They should rally at the next meet and greet with Rich and the gang. Could we say HillBilly stomp lol

Carrot Juice is murder - Arrogant Worms (live bait 1997)

Listen up brothers and sisters,
come hear my desperate tale.
I speak of our friends of nature,
trapped in the dirt like a jail.

Vegetables live in oppression,
served on our tables each night.
This killing of veggies is madness,
I say we take up the fight.

Salads are only for murderers,
coleslaw's a fascist regime.
Don't think that they don't have feelings,
just cause a radish can't scream.

Chorus:
I've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream, scream, scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (having their insides revealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy (burning off calories)
How do you think that feels (bet it hurts really bad)
Carrot juice constitutes murder (and that's a real crime)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (let my vegetables go)
It's time to stop all this gardening (it's dirty as hell)
Let's call a spade a spade (is a spade is a spade is a spade)

I saw a man eating celery,
so I beat him black and blue.
If he ever touches a sprout again,
I'll bite him clean in two.

I'm a political prisoner,
trapped in a windowless cage.
Cause I stopped the slaughter of turnips
by killing five men in a rage

I told the judge when he sentenced me,
This is my finest hour,
I'd kill those farmers again
just to save one more cauliflower

Chorus

How low as people do we dare to stoop,
Making young broccolis bleed in the soup?
Untie your beans, uncage your tomatoes
Let potted plants free, don't mash that potato!

I've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream, scream, scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (fates in the stirfry are sealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy (you fat gormet slob)
How do you think that feels? (leave them out in the field)
Carrot juice constitutes murder (V8's genocide)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (yes, your composts are graves)
It's time to stop all this gardening (take up macrame)
Let's call a spade a spade (is a spade, is a spade, is a spade, is a spade.....
