Members Washroad Posted March 25, 2009 Members Report Posted March 25, 2009 She is weird. She's also a fanatic. Let her do those things and I'll be very unimpressed. BTW, how many of you know that jerk bill maher is on peta's bod? Quote Brian It's YOUR life; rise up and LIVE it!
HorsehairBraider Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 PETA does stuff in order to attract attention. Please notice that although they will cheerfully poor red paint on old ladies wearing fur coats, they conspicuously leave the Hell's Angels, in their leather gear, strictly alone. After all you don't want to pick on and terrorize someone who can kick the snot out of you... now do you? Quote They say princes learn no art truly, but the art of horsemanship.

Contributing Member UKRay Posted March 25, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 25, 2009 Too weird for me - I'm just wondering how she got to know the leatherworkers who are going to make the items? LOL Is this something to do with you, Badger? (being as you are the only person I know who routinely mucks around with icky looking body parts...)

Hilly Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Maybe she'll have her hide veg tanned so we can carve a scene of her shooting a deer on it, and make it into a rifle case. Someone pass me a swivel knife! Quote
Members badger Posted March 25, 2009 Members Report Posted March 25, 2009 Hell yeah Ray, I'll do it. Tan her and bring her over Karl Quote
Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted March 26, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 26, 2009 (edited) Warning: If you are 'sensitive' about certain topics like this don't read the rest of this post. I got a little cynical with my thoughts. Gee, that is so thoughtful of her. Seems almost...................................Stupid. If she really wanted to make a statement, she wouldn't wait until she died. C'mon, how about being a volunteer paraplegic? Open letter to this wacko: I challenge you to step up your efforts at being shocking. Go have a voluntary amputation of both legs. Then you can have your umbrella stands, barbeque, and leather. Why wait until you kick the bucket? What, you don't want to be inconvenienced by a wheel chair while you're alive? Go ahead and donate yourself to science NOW. I'm sure there's some nutcase scientists that wouldn't mind having a 'test subject' of your ilk. I'm thinking something along the lines of "Boxing Helena"....... Feel free to add to this. Once we get a few pages of outlandish ideas, we'll mail it to her. And isn't India the place where cows are 'sacred'; the place where you see starving people and healthy bovines in the same place?

Members Kevinjohnson Posted March 26, 2009 Members Report Posted March 26, 2009 TwinOaks, You get my vote for "Response of the Year!" Did someone say BBQ? DEEEEEELICIOUS Quote
HorsehairBraider Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Oh heck - these people aren't worth getting worked up over. All they want to do is get people talking about PETA - which is a PITA if you ask me. They just want to be sensationalist, so they can get people talking about them even if it's bad. Although they weren't so thrilled with the publicity when they got caught killing pet dogs and cats they were supposed to be "saving". Sheesh. They're just a bunch of losers who keep trying to be relevant in society. That said, I just got myself a new fancy lace cutter. I could braid up some dandy items from the rawhide, no need to go to all the trouble to tan it... Quote They say princes learn no art truly, but the art of horsemanship.
