People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has revived its anti-milk ``Got Beer?'' campaign, with advertisements in four college newspapers Thursday urging students to abandon dairy in favor of the brewery.

PETA first came up with the slogan - a spoof of the popular ``Got Milk?'' campaign - two years ago, but it was retired after being criticized by Mothers Against Drunk Driving and other groups.

If there's a way to charge an institution with corruption of a minor, this would be the case. These guys are insane.

I guess you could say that the next person from "the 10 schools identified by Princeton Review as the nation's top party schools", that is killed by drunk driving, was encouraged by PETA.

I have always wanted to ask a Peta nutjob where it ends? Perhaps we should kill all the cows, because each cow when living must certainly crush thousands of ants and other bugs while it walks. Isn't it cruel to let the cow rampage like this, destroying beautiful beetles, who are ripped away from their parents as the bovine shakes the ground in a terrifying manner, crushing the throat, while it screams and it's parents look on in horror?

Got Beer. Clever. Made me laugh.

Let's face it. The only reason we kill cows in such great numbers, beside the fact that they taste good, is that they don't fight back. If they started killing a few dozen people when a few of them went to the slaughterhouse, I think we would find something else to eat.

We kill cows because they dont fight back? Your crazy.

We eat cows because they are a reliable, plentiful, healty, and wonderfully delicious meal.

What source of food do we or other countries consume that does fight back?

None. Because if it did fight back, we wouldn't be eating it.

If cows all of a sudden developed the technology to build guns, and started using them when they saw us eating cows, I bet you a hundred bucks we would stop eating cows.

If it weren't for their meat and their milk and their hides, what use would they be?

Really, if they were not used as a food source or leather source why would they be kept by anyone? Anyone want a cow for a pet? Ever wonder why you don't see trained cows? Because they make a sack of hammers look like a Noble laureate.

PETA wants people to stop drinking milk, eating beef and wearing leather is equal to calling for the extinction of all cows as a species.

I'll take that bet.

Now go teach cows how to do just that so you can win.

Good luck in teaching a cow to do anything.
