"They are left wing radical terrorists, only slightly less extreme than the Weathermen, for example, who regularly and openly commit conspiracy, vandalism, public nuisance, mischief, arson, theft, breaking and entering, grand theft, larceny, AND cruelty to animals, all in the name of helping animals."

***

Ted Nugent some years ago received threats from one or more purported PETA members (of course PETA denies it). Something like, you kill Bambi, so we're going to kill your children. Sick.

I guess he was never able to actually prove these threats came from PETA or its members, but I would believe Ted over anyone from PETA.

Penn and Teller had a BS episode on PETA and it was awesome. If you have not seen it, then by all means check it out. It exposes them in every way.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with Penn and Teller. Who are they? If I knew, I would almost certainly check out the documentary.

There mission statement should state "Radical Animal Killers spending millions on teaching children to be vegetarians, telling milk drinkers they are Nazis (Durbin wants to be their spokesman), promoting a meatless Thanksgiving, defending violent extremists and killing helpless animals."

I love their Durbin addition to the story! Hilarious!!!

The web site for their show is here: Penn and Teller: B*llsh*t!

Penn & Teller is one of several magic acts in Las Vegas which uses animals. Something like Siegfried & Roy (now defunct following Roy's mauling some months ago).

I can't speak for Penn & Teller, but several of these acts have been accused of cruelty to their animals by PETA and some other affiliated nutjobs...and these claims are bogus. I know that S&R was (and I believe still are even though the act is dissolved), in the forefront of animal preservation, particularly of their extremely rare white tigers and white lions. It makes sense that legitimate performers would want to protect and preserve their animals; without those animals, those acts would cease to exist.

I bet they don't think twice about the billions of insects that give so that PEATA people can have unblemished vegetables.

Oh the typos! Trying again:

I bet they don't think twice about the billions of insects that give their lives so that PETA people can have unblemished vegetables.

Speaking of PETA, in noodling around Foxnews, I found this related item:

N.C. Counties Accuse PETA of Killing Animals
Thursday, June 23, 2005

PETA Workers Charged With Animal Cruelty

NORFOLK, Va. — Two North Carolina counties have stopped turning over shelter animals to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, saying they were surprised the group euthanized cats and dogs instead of trying to find them homes.

Brandi Valladolid is so delicious...There's one endangered animal in need of rescuing. I'll find some way to pry the brainwashing out.
