Not only are they racist and sexist, but their accounting practices are completely atrocious. I really think the whole thing is a total scam.<BR/><BR/>And on the topic of barbecue- I had my first barbecue ribs ever a few weeks ago and DAMN! I have never tasted anything so delicious. Serious food coma after that one too. I am seriously jealous of all the folks who have access to this kind of food all the time!

But I do not approve of all their tactics, I don't think they mean to be mean spirited. But some do come across as racist, misogynist, and transphobic, and for those particular campaigns everyone is right to criticize the organization.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20389448.post-35212437303875830232009-03-01T20:16:00.000-06:002009-03-01T20:16:00.000-06:00You go ahead and tell PETA some truth about themse...You go ahead and tell PETA some truth about themselves. I had to laugh at your last sentence re pumps and anus. <BR/><BR/>@Queers United: Have you ever said anything in opposition of PETA? Seriously it seems that you believe that they can do no wrong. While they may not be representative of the animal rights movement, their actions speak loudly and main continually fail to speak out against them.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16388113393817266374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20389448.post-59635735961442470172009-03-01T16:38:00.000-06:002009-03-01T16:38:00.000-06:00Cristina a lot of people mistake PETA as an organi...Cristina a lot of people mistake PETA as an organization for being responsible for throwing red paint, etc. The organization does not engage in these tactics, its possible sometimes a member will, but its not funded as an org. The problem is anything animal rights people just point to PETA, and they aren't always to blame.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20389448.post-84960931897268142902009-03-01T14:49:00.000-06:002009-03-01T14:49:00.000-06:00Queers United--I'm with you for the most part (car...Queers United--I'm with you for the most part (card carrying pro-animal rights vegan who hates PETA and their racist, misogynistic, etc ways.) I agree that the fur trade is disgusting <I>but</I> I also think some of the ways PETA and some other animal rights activists target fur wearers can be problematic and often leaves me ironically sympathizing with the fur wearer, Aretha Franklin being a good case in point.Constintinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00573833202524090598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20389448.post-53728988532862889772009-03-01T14:46:00.000-06:002009-03-01T14:46:00.000-06:00Goddess, I love barbecue.

That being said fur is inexcusable regardless of the persons race or ethnicity. These animals are skinned alive, anally electrocuted, among other sick tactics. Fur is one of the most horrible trades,it should be illegal.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20389448.post-67229033543569363412009-03-01T11:10:00.000-06:002009-03-01T11:10:00.000-06:00THIS!!!!Now excuse me I'm about to go to Logan's R...THIS!!!!<BR/><BR/>Now excuse me I'm about to go to Logan's Roadhouse.Dennis R.
