We all know PETA sucks. They are hypocrites who hurt the animals they claim to protect. In the past, PETA loonies painted innocent people in the streets wearing leather or fur. They market themselves by using naked chicks like Eva Mendes, Pam Anderson and Alicia Silverstone. Frankly, they make me sick.
Now PETA is managing to offend even more people with their latest billboard in Jacksonville, Florida. The ad features a chubby woman shown from behind. Her fat is spilling over the sides of a horrendous polka-dotted bikini.
The ad states, "Save The Whales. Lose The Blubber: Go Vegetarian. PETA."
Seems to express it's alright to make fun of an obese woman behind her back. PETA not only exploits animals, they exploit women. Makes me want to slip into my knee-high leather stiletto boots, crack a rawhide whip and eat a big, juicy steak in their face.
(I was actually considering a vegan lifestyle but this ad caused a minor setback in my perspective.)
What do you think?

I'm a liberal animal rights vegetarian type who is embarrassed by them - totally.
LOL! ain't that the truth!
I am not a big meat eater, and I am all for protecting animals from cruel people...but PETA takes it way too far. You can't push a lifestyle choice on people, and it seems like PETA would.
I'd prefer to see a fine bod anytime and no one is offended by that - although shouldn't that remind us of how fat some of us are?:)
I don't take it personal - my tush is my business. Too skinny is unhealthy and too fat is unhealthy and while the ad is rude like Peter said, it's the big fat truth and someone should occasionally forget about being politically correct and show it like it is.
I doubt that I could ever become a true vegetarian, but the older I get the less meat I crave. I think that is natural.
Insult to fatties? Not at all - it shows the naked truth, take it as a wake up call to become healthy.
Some of us will never be fashionably thin, so what, I doubt that is healthy for most of us anyway! What counts is that we eat healthy and walk as much as possible.
It is important to do whatever we can for our body and our health - and no ad - whether a fine rear end or a fat a** is going to change that reality for us.
I am more inclined to be insulted by the thin models and any picture where you can count someones ribs - that - in my opinion is a lot more dangerous, because it is shown as an ideal body to be achieved by young women - that is where the real danger lies.
I'm obese, so my fat behind might be just like the one on the billboard. However (in addition to never being caught in a bikini) I also don't eat much meat. I may go eat a juicy hamburger in PETA's honor.
I temporarily got out of the raising beef biz because the feed is HIGH and the market is LOW. I make more money raising alfalfa.
I have seen too much cruelty to all sorts of animals.
What I have seen.
A dairy worker took a pipe and broke a cows nose.
A VET trying to get a sick cow to move, stuck the cattle prod up the anus of said cow. Ouch! Poor cow could barely walk.
Cows watch other cows getting slaughtered and KNOW they are next. They try to run from the cow killer.
Saw a dairy worker take out a pocket knife and cut the non milk producing teat of a cow.
The saddest part is when calves are separated from their momma. So many DIE from the shock. Many have to be force fed and their constant crying for their momma usally ends when they DIE. I'd say up to half die.
When I took a pig to market, the USDA guy soaked the needle lined USDA stamp in ink and POW!!! Instant tatto. Right on the pigs rump, he sure made it squeal like a pig.
Enjoy beef, an animal probably suffered so you could enjoy that burger.
Yes, PETA is radical. Mostly because we are blind to the suffering of most of the other nonhuman part of nature. PETA to this date has ended much suffering on this Earth and still has an enormous job to do. And keep this in mind: heaven would be a very dull place without the souls of other species.
As for our hunted whiles, I find it most amazing that most people don't consider the size of the brain of a while...Size alone equates to the possibility that they are highly intelligent, so intelligent that they might have a sophisticated language of their own, and just, if not more so, as sophisticated as any human language.
