Now, this is just sick.

[goodieD]

I'll just be glad when she's gone..whatever is done with her remains. One less nutjob in the world is always a good thing.

[Tennessee_Bob]

has decreed in her will that a portion of her body (she doesn't specify which) should be barbecued as a protest against "fleshfoods".

Why wait till then? How about if she volunteers to step off this mortal coil and get it done now?

[Jhoffa_]

..And that's not all. Ms Newkirk has also laid down that part of her skin be turned into a leather product to show that human skin and animal skin are the same thing and that neither is a "fabric".

Okay, so maybe leather isn't a "fabric"

But, it seems like a waste to just throw it awaw after we scoop all the meat from inside.

(:

[The FRugitive]

Sweet. I'll take them. I'll feed the meat to my dog and use the bags for some guns or something.

Tan me hide
When I've died, Clyde,
Tan me hide when I've died. . . .

I'm sure there's a German out there that could use a lampshade ....

Why are people so stupid sometimes ?

[Charles Henrickson]

OOPS! Messed up the lyrics! Should be:

Tan me hide
When I'm dead, Fred,
Tan . . . me hide . . . when I'm dead. . . .

So we tanned his hide
When he died, Clyde,
And that's it a-hangin' on the shed!

All together now!

She should ask Ed Gein to make her into a purse. He enjoyed making furniture and such out of human skin.

This woman is crazy.

There's an excellent (and VERY lengthy) story on this nut in "The New Yorker" in the April 14th, 2003 issue.
She also wants her eyes removed, mounted and delivered to the administrator of the EPA 'as a reminder that PETA will continue to bewatching the agency....'
She absolutely believes that animals take precedence over people. If an animal dies in research necessary to find a cure for a deadly human disease, then people should just die.
She wrote a letter to Yasser Arafat complaining that a homicide bomber blew up a donkey instead of people.
If ever there was a public personality that was a KOOK, she's it.

[realpatriot]

I don't think vegetarians have the proper "marbling."

[DED]

I thought it was "tan my hide when I'm dead, Fred"
And don't forget to take my koala back, Jack.

[mutejesseJ]

Ya know...this is SO typical of these people. Yes, do these henious things to HER body after she is dead and gone, have the cutting up, grilling, etc., (puke) be on the minds and hearts of those living and carrying on her vile work.

Why not allow herself to suffer the fate she protests cows do...now, or pen her up NOW, as one would a calf for veal.

Sick!

BTW--i do not think ANY of the aformentioned things should ever be done to any person, but this woman willing her body to such things is such a SICK sick thing!

[VRWC For Truth]

Simple solution: We wave received a suspicious package. Call the bomb squad.

[Paul Atreides]

Just when we thought it couldn't get any better, watching the anti-Bush/pro-Saddam left imploding, we now have that freak going over the edge as well.

[VRWC For Truth]

wave = have

[RikaStrom]

Sounds like she saw the move "The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover" one time too many.

Get that critter on some meds!
