Guest guest Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Hi, Farah, you can contact PETA to get more posters and/or copies of the Meet your Meet video. www.peta.org I just came back from PETA's Animal rights 101 conference in Los Angeles - boy was that an experience! I was hoping I would meet some fellow SFBAVEG'ers there but did not unfortunately. I was so surprised at some of the backlash that PETA gets even by members of this group. I can't figure out why. I will tell you that I spoke to several PETA staff members there about this crazy misconception about Pitbulls that seems to float around with them and they all told me the same thing: they do not hate pitbulls and they do not advocate the eradication of them. I read Ingrid Newkirk's quote about pitbulls and to me, that same message came across. Yes, PETA's tactics can be aggressive and their videos and ads can be shocking, but unfortunately they are representations of what really is going on in the world around us as it pertains to animals. More importantly, their tactics do work. I can tell you personally that if it weren't for PETA I probably would not be a vegan myself, but it was one of their campaigns that changed my lifestyle. Long Live PETA! Go Vegan! Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
