Ingrid Newkirk's Unique Will DIRECTIONS FOR THE DISPOSITION OF THE REMAINS OF (PETA KOOK)

PETA ^

[LibWhacker]

As someone who has dedicated a part of my life to the alleviation of animal suffering in various parts of the world, it is my wish that upon my death, my body be used to further that same goal. It is with this purpose in mind that I make the following directions and designations relating to the disposition of my final remains. I make these directions and designations after thorough consideration and pursuant to my firm belief in the purposes for which they are made.

1. Upon my death, it is my wish that my body be used in a manner that draws attention to needless animal suffering and exploitation. To accomplish this, I direct that my body be donated to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), 501 Front Street, Norfolk, Virginia 23510, to be used in whatever manner it chooses in order to accomplish the specified purpose, with the hope that most of my body will be put to use in the United States, with parts also dispatched to awaken the public consciousness of governments and citizens in the United Kingdom, where I was born, in India, my beloved childhood home, and in Canada, Germany, and France.

2. While the final decision as to the use of my body remains with PETA, I make the following suggested directions:

a. That the “meat” of my body, or a portion thereof, be used for a human barbecue, to remind the world that the meat of a corpse is all flesh, regardless of whether it comes from a human being or another animal, and that flesh foods are not needed;

b. That my skin, or a portion thereof, be removed and made into leather products, such as purses, to remind the world that human skin and the skin of other animals is the same and that neither is “fabric” nor needed, and that some skin be tacked up outside the Indian Leather Fair each year to serve as a reminder of the government’s need to abate the suffering of Indian bullocks who, after a life of extreme and involuntary servitude, as I have seen firsthand, are exported all over the world in this form;

c. That in remembrance of the elephant-foot umbrella stands and tiger rugs I saw, as a child, offered for sale by merchants at Connaught Place in Delhi, my feet be removed and umbrella stands or other ornamentation be made from them, as a reminder of the depravity of killing innocent animals, such as elephants, in order that we might use their body parts for household items and decorations;

d. That one of my eyes be removed, mounted, and delivered to the administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a reminder that PETA will continue to be watching the agency until it stops poisoning and torturing animals in useless and cruel experiments; that the other is to be used as PETA sees fit;

e. That my pointing finger be delivered to Kenneth Feld, owner of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, or to a circus museum to stand as the “Greatest Accusation on Earth” on behalf of the countless elephants, lions, tigers, bears, and other animals who have been kidnapped from their families and removed from their homelands in India, Thailand, Africa, and South America and deprived of all that is natural and pleasant to them, abused, and forced into involuntary servitude for the sake of cheap entertainment;

f. That my liver be vacuum-packed and shipped, in whole or in part, to France, to there be used in a public appeal to persuade shoppers not to support the vile practice of force-feeding geese and ducks for foie gras;

g. That one of my ears be removed, mounted, and sent to the Canadian Parliament to assist them in hearing, for the first time perhaps, the screams of the seals, bears, raccoons, foxes, and minks bludgeoned, trapped, and sometimes skinned alive for their pelts; that the other ear be removed, preserved, and displayed outside the Deonar abattoir in Mumbai to remind all who do business there that the screams of the cattle who are slaughtered within its walls are heard around the world;

h. That one of my thumbs be removed, mounted upwards on a plaque, and sent to the person or institution that, in the year of my death or thereabouts, PETA decides has done the most to promote alternatives to the use and abuse of animals in any area of their exploitation;

i. That one of my thumbs be mounted in a downward position and sent to the person or institution that, in the year of my death or thereabouts, has gone against the changing tide of societal opinion and frightened and hurt animals in some egregious manner;

j. That a little part of my heart be buried near the racetrack at Hockenheim, preferably near the Ferrari pits, where Michael Shumacher raced in and won the German Grand Prix;

k. That anything else be done with my body that PETA believes will serve to draw attention to and so abate the plight of exploited animals.

3. As a resident of Virginia, and pursuant to Virginia law, including § 54.1-2825 of the Virginia Code, I designate PETA as the “person” who shall make arrangements for carrying out the directions contained in this document for the disposition of my remains upon my death. If, at any time, PETA is unable or unwilling to carry out these directions, I designate, in the alternative, Daniel Mathews as the individual who shall make arrangements for carrying out the directions contained in this document for the disposition of my remains upon my death. If Daniel Mathews is unable or unwilling to carry out these directions as required, I authorize either of the two listed “persons” in this paragraph to designate a third party to make arrangements for carrying out the directions contained in this document for the disposition of my remains upon my death.

4. While I prefer that my directions be first executed in the United States, I also direct that parts of my body be transported to the United Kingdom, of which I also am a citizen, and to India, my beloved spiritual home, to be executed there. If my directions cannot be executed in any of these countries, I authorize the transport of my remains to any location where my disposition directions, in whole or in part, may be lawfully executed.

5. I authorize the person carrying out these directions to deviate from them in any manner he or she deems appropriate to further the purpose expressed herein. If any provision or provisions of this document shall be held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable, or in conflict with the law of any jurisdiction, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Someone didn’t get the memo...people named Ingrid were supposed to be hot.

[conservative cat]

WOW.

[nmh]

Sick!

I suppose her sees herself as an ANIMAL.

There is a defference between animals and humans.

[nmh]

Sick!

I suppose her sees herself as an ANIMAL.

There is a difference between animals and humans.

[TheConservativeParty]

That chick is insane. I couldn’t read very far into it. Too sick. Another deranged Obama voter.

[angkor]

Surely the Virginia State Code would invalidate at least half of her bogus “will”.

Ingrid may not be hot but she is definitely a slut for attention.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Wow. Personally....I’ve made sure that all of my body parts be used to save/help other PEOPLE......because, ya’ know, I’m not selfish person, and all. *Rolls eyes*

[highlander_UW]

That chick is insane. I couldn’t read very far into it. Too sick. Another deranged Obama voter.

I saw the picture and PETA and knew she was deranged...well, it was the PETA part that gave it away.

[peeps36]

At least she didn't have any children to pass her stupidity to. She has no life outside of PETA. She's a lonely person who thinks that animals are human.

[He who knoweth not his name]

That`s a MAN, baby- yeah! She sure is going to have a BIG carbon footprint AFTER he dies...killing the planet to save it.

[Bryanw92]

I think she should be chopped up into pieces and fed to various carnivores and omnivores to show PETA that, in the animal world, critters eat other critters and feel no shame for doing so.

[Oldpuppymax]

She should have willed her brain to some first rate hospital. Maybe they could find out what’s wrong with this whack-job...apart from the breathtaking self-importance, that is.

[highlander_UW]

I think she should be chopped up into pieces and fed to various carnivores and omnivores to show PETA that, in the animal world, critters eat other critters and feel no shame for doing so.

Sorry, but you're not going to get me to go along with you on that. I assume you're joking, but talking about chopping up people, even as a joke, sounds too much like a liberal blog for my tastes. Of course for liberals it'd probably be babies they'd be advocating chopping up.

[IronJack]

That one of my thumbs be removed

... from the bodily orifice in which it has been impacted for the last 5 decades ...

That my empty skull be used as a soup tureen, or, with the eyes plucked out and used as shooters in a child's game of marbles, be mounted on a pole and made available to wrens as a nesting place.

That my entrails be used as food for hogs, or, barring the use of same on the grounds that my being is poisonous, they be dried and used as jump ropes.

That my jawbone be used to slay 10,000 Philistines ...

[Syntyr]

Moonbat Wacko...

Everyone of her suggested uses, with maybe the exception of J, is illegal and can not be carried ot. Even J would need to obtain persion from a lot of authorties and it would probably never happen. Just another wacko showing us she “feels” for her fellow animals. Judge me not by my results but by my intentions.

[Steely Tom]

I would say that I hope this unhappy person finds peace some day, but I know that the only way she’ll find peace is by seeing every other human being wiped out. This is what she seeks. This is her heart’s fondest daydream. This is the only thing that will take away the pain she feels when she looks in the mirror, and is reminded once again that she’s Ingrid Newkirk, and that’s all she’ll ever be.

[Bryanw92]

Her will already has her body being parted-out for various purposes. I just want to see those parts put to good use as nature intended. I’m not advocating chopping her up NOW, as some liberals want to see done to Dick Cheney.

[mrs. a]

Where can I get one of those Ingrid-foot umbrella stands? Do you suppose they will be available on ebay?

I guess she can’t parcel out her brain since there would have to have been one in the first place...

[6SJ7]

Someone didn’t get the memo...people named Ingrid were supposed to be hot.

For every rule, an exception. She's the exception.
