Genuine Risk, I understand your point.

I was being glib...as you can tell I hate PETA.

We actually raise livestock for personal consumption so that we can control what our steaks or pork chops have ingested.
But there are already alternatives for those that can't do this, such as organic which is available in even the largest cities.


I just don't think PETA should be the ones to carry on this crusade, especially since they want everyone to be vegans. Again another misuse of PETA funding as a 501C3, illegal lobbying for a cause they don't believe in as we are all supposed to eat plant matter only.

For people to keep saying PETA is a good group just galls me. They are exploiting Eight Belles tragic, freak death, ruining the Preakness and funding ALF(animal liberation front) in the name of Eight Belles.
