This Week in Food Freedom: PETA Jumps the Sea Kitten, Good News in California, and More
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) president Ingrid Newkirk has called her organization “complete press sluts,” and it still rings true. The Orange County Register reports that the vegan group which once gave grants to an arsonist wants to place a memorial at the spot where a truck carrying fish — er, “sea kittens” […]

PETA Meets Two Judges, Loses Two Cases
One of the goals of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is to grant animals the same legal rights as people, but this foolish quest suffered double setbacks this week. PETA is no stranger to losing in the courtroom—like its frivolous case claiming that Sea World’s performing whales were slaves or a not-at-all-frivolous […]

Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance with PETA
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has been playing love games with celebrity activists for quite some time. While some have been diehard extremists for the wacky cause, others have not accommodated PETA’s demands. Now the animal rights (not animal welfare) folks are calling music artist Lady Gaga a Judas for allegedly being as hypocritical as they are. After once hailing her as a hero after she […]

At Least PETA Can’t “Ethically Treat” Homeless People Like It Does Homeless Pets

PETA Milks Same Old Spoiled Propaganda
You’ve already heard of the the “latte loophole” exempting drinks with 50 percent dairy or soy milk from the proposed New York City soda regulation limiting the size of soft drinks to 16 ounces.

Has PETA’s Hometown Had Enough?
For those not familiar with the sordid secret of the nation’s most hypocritical animal rights group, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) runs an “animal shelter” in Norfolk, Virginia.

Calling All Herbivores …
The New York Times recently posed a challenge to meat eaters: Defend eating animals. In typical Times fashion, the odds were stacked firmly against the forces of common sense and bacon grease: The judges included the godfather of the animal rights movement, Peter Singer; the “vegan before 6” (a.m.?)

A PETA Army of Child Activists?
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has a history of misdeeds. The group has given money to defend an animal-rights motivated criminal, praised the violent Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) organization, and made a grant to the Earth Liberation Front, which the FBI called a “terrorist group.” PETA has misappropriated religion to the […]
