I posted, we'll see what happens. I'm ultimately not very worried because I live in Texas and if any of the local authorities find out someone from PETA is in our state they'll be eradicated long before they're able to throw paint on me or my car.

Not there yet..The irony of them bitching about being denied advertising space while they deny opposing view points to be posted.

But, then again..it's PETA

Don't waste time commenting, they won't post anything negative anyway. And they will have your email.

Good advice!

PETA should be PITA because they truly are.

It won't ever show up.

The next thing they will be crowing about is that their attempt to put this billboard up was unanimously praised by the public. That they did not see any negative responses to their campaign.

I made the mistake of reading some of the comments. Yeesh. Not to mention some double posters, my personal pet peeve (seriously, little PETA fans- you're that impatient you put the comment up a second time when you don't see it post right away? Because believe me, whatever you have to say, it's not that important. Or interesting.)

PETA = domestic terrorists, financiers of arson and murder

I wouldn't bother posting on their site, they aren't worth those seconds of your life.

C'mon folks, I learned all about how PETA was responsible for the changes in the industry. Give'em some credit. If they hadn't told us that, would we have known? I assumed it was our own doing.
