TWEET: Man Plays Hilarious Joke On PETA… But PETA’s Clueless Reaction Made It Go Viral
Conservative Tribune ^ | 10/23/15

t’s widely known that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is nothing more than a complete joke. While some of their members undoubtedly have good intentions, they are widely ridiculed around the globe for being silly and, well, gullible.

Most recently, Bar Stool Sports reported that PETA got pranked by a Twitter user, and their response proved just how ridiculous they often are.

You’d have to be really dense actually think this guy was being serious:

And PETA thought he was serious. Baby bears. In Chicago. Being slaughtered by New Yorkers. You do the math.

PETA has since taken down its clueless response, which is why we can only show you a screenshot of it here. So one hopes that someone there caught on to the joke.

The man was very clearly referring to the Chicago Cubs games against the New York Mets … he even included the hashtag #NYMvsCHC at the bottom of his tweet.

Maybe PETA could help organize a rally in support of the Chicago Cubs. They sure could use it after the embarrassing defeat they suffered at the hands of the Mets.

It really was a shame. They almost escaped the bonds of captivity, only to be soundly beaten — with wooden bats, no less — and thrown back into the dungeon from which they looked so likely to emerge.

Now they are doomed to spend the next few months (or possibly years … it’s the Cubs so you never know) trapped, yearning for a chance to taste fresh air once again.

It was, figuratively speaking, a crime — but not the kind even so intrusive a group like PETA wants to stick its nose into.

PETA learned nothing from how stupid they looked back in 1996 when they demanded that the town of Fishkill, NY be renamed Fishsaved As my FRiends here of Dutch heritage know, the word "kill" in this context means Creek. This PC BS of renaming places because it sounds and/or represents something that's perceived by a few hypersensitive cupcakes to be offensive has been going on long before demands to remove Confederate flags and anything about Southern Culture.

Go back even farther to 1962 when a comedian (Vaughn Meader) demanded President Kennedy protect Caroline form viewing her NAKED HORSE!

“MR PRESIDENT, PLEASE CLOTHE YOUR HORSE!”

Done as a joke, Meader said later that he was shocked when forty five thousand people signed the petition to CLOTHE THE HORSE!

I read where some college students got tired of all the tree huggers parading around campus with their idiotic signs, aided and abetted by the “Save the Whales” loons.

So . . . they blew up a picture of a gekko (think Geico ads) and called it a “nauga”. Then they made up posters of “Save the Naugas!” declaring that harmless creatures were being slaughtered by the thousands to make Naugahyde covers for sofas and other furniture.

They the protesters and within minutes had students (some tearfully) chanting “Save the Naugas!”.

I understand a similar protest was held banning water by using its chemical name.

No wonder we got obama.
