First COSTCO banned Palmetto Cheese Company’s cheese products because the CEO said something about how abhorrent the BLM movement is, and now they’re banning monkey labor products. I mean, who knew?! If COSTCO keeps up this banning trend, we’ll have to back to shopping at Walmart!

This story was spun as though it was against PETA, but it is actually PETA placing these on remote trails to get hunters.

Man injured by ‘nail trap’ with words ‘PETA paybak’ on it in NC wilderness

“Man injured by ‘nail trap’ with words ‘PETA paybak’ on it in NC wilderness - The Virginian-Pilot - The Virginian-Pilot” https://www.pilotonline.com/news/vp-nw-nail-trap-north-carolina-20201027-72ibq36uznevppwttcurjwtmiq-story.html?outputType=amp

The area is used by hunters as well as by mountain bikers and hikers. Mayo said the words “PETA paybak” were written on the trap and another one that he found, possibly referring to the group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

Mayo said PETA wouldn’t have been involved because the traps are more likely to hurt an animal than a person.

“If a bear stepped on them, it would get an infection and die,” he said.

I can’t post the picture from my phone, but it is definitely done by PETA to get hunters.

Seeing eye dogs, drug dogs, canary in a coal mine, plow horses, ranching horses, ranching, dairy farms, fishing, and now I learned apparently Monkeys picking/harvesting coconuts.

Yes, we're people, we tame and sometimes even domesticate animals and use them. What is PETA's problem with this now? Is it the training methods used? Or that the Monkeys are used at all?

“Just because something is legal or accepted it doesn’t mean it’s OK,” said Kent Stein, PETA’s corporate responsibility officer.”

Mental illness on display.

“Democrats” and “jobs” — an oxymoron.

I, for one, welcome our new Monkey overlords.

Hey, I’ve seen how this movie ends. If this continues, Charlton Heston finds a destroyed Statue of Liberty in just about 1500 years.

They do all manner of savage things.

Every year, the warning goes out on the dog show circuit to NEVER leave your waiting dogs unattended while showing another dog.

They will go through the show grounds “freeing” the show dogs and many have been lost or hit by cars when set loose.

They have no problems poisoning show dogs, either.

They’re of the same ilk as those who drove spikes into trees to injure lumbermen.

They are evil.

Every time I run into one somewhere, I invite them to come protest leather and meat at biker pig roasts.

So far, none have taken up the offer.
