En: [abolicionistas] A outra PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals.

[Guest guest]

Well, it's not illegal to eat or sell meat, even though we don't like

it. I wonder if PETA would be able to have a court case against them

for using the same acronym, and would they be likely to win or not.

 

Hare Krishna do serve vegetarian food, but it is for religious

reasons not ethical. The reason they consume cows milk is because

they believe there is a 'spiritual centre' in the brain that needs

cows milk!!! i.e. a selfish reason, not considering the cows.

Group holds "PETA" BBQBy JESSIE COLEMANAlligator WriterThe smoky smell of barbecue wafted across the Plaza of the Americas on Wednesday, mingling with the ethnic spices of Krishna Lunch. At a table just across the sidewalk from the long line of students waiting to buy a vegetarian meal, the College Republicans served pulled pork, barbecue chicken, baked beans, coleslaw and buttery toast. The food was part of their annual "PETA" barbecue, which stands for People Eating Tasty Animals. The event was catered by David's Real Pit BBQ for $500. The event started three years ago, but this was the first year that the organization got a permit to hold the barbecue on campus. Though the College Republicans did not charge for the food, they strongly suggested that students contribute donations. They also sold $15 T-shirts, which depicted a portly individual licking a pig on a stick as if it were a lollipop. Allen Tam, a sophomore who often eats the vegetarian Krishna Lunch, opted instead for a heaping plateful of pulled pork and barbecue chicken. "You can indulge once in a year," Tam said. But not everyone enjoyed the change. Clare Naponick, another sophomore, was dawdling over to the barbecue when the acronym "PETA" caught her eye. Naponick, a 12-year vegetarian and 10-year member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals - the other PETA - was appalled when she saw the trays of meat and the T-shirts. Naponick, who considered herself a Republican before the incident, stormed off, angry and offended. "I just don't see what being a Republican has to do with eating tasty animals," she said. "I won't vote Republican now." Despite the controversy, all the food - enough for 100 people - was eaten. http://www.alligator.org/pt2/070301peta.php

I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As a result of war, corporations have been enthroned, and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the republic is destroyed. I feel, at this moment, more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless." Lincoln in a letter to Col. William F. Elkins on November 21, 1864
