PETA sparks outrage by barbecuing fake dog to promote veganism

[jolldan]

Just when I think PETA can't get anymore ridiculous their PR team is like hold my beer.


PETA has sparked outrage by barbecuing a fake dog at an Australian shopping centre - a stunt designed to encourage people to embrace veganism.

Demonstrators from the animal rights group descended on the Pitt Street Mall in Sydney to hold the protest, which has been branded "sick" and "disgusting" by shoppers who saw it.


One witness said the organisation was "stooping to new lows" - and claimed they saw "some visibly upset kids" who were out and about during their summer break.

PETA said it wanted to encourage people to reconsider what they cook for their upcoming Australia Day feast, when families come together to celebrate the official national day on 26 January,

The canine prop was barbecued over a banner stating: "If you wouldn't eat a dog, why eat a lamb? Go vegan!"

[Boom]

So dumb.

 

[Teelie]

It's beyond offensive and disgusting involving an animal so naturally PETA is going to be behind it.

 

[Travesty]

This is like Kathy Griffin levels of stupid.

 

[Immortalfire]

They are the most worthless sacks of by product on earth.

They run the most kill-happy animal shelters in the country, so what exactly is their point? That killing dogs is wrong? Because all it takes is a minute of actual research on Google to see they definitely don't practice what they preach there.

Well you have to appreciate that they care so much for animals, but their tactics are beyond disgusting...there are many animal rights organizations that are better than Peta.
Peta have become Radical and lost what their initial message was about.

Now its all just shaming people instead of being clever or anything.

They don't, though.

I have two friends who are big pets supporters mainly because both love dogs, the sad part is they will not let anyone discuss the dark side of peta as it would shake what they believe

Hell one is the kindest person I know and someone who I really care for but because peta is the most known they think it’s the best


in my personal opinion peta are scumbags and do not give a flying **** about animal welfare unless it benefits they’re own popularity and the sooner they are shut down the better

If cooked right with the proper spices.....vegans taste pretty good.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I had beef for lunch today, and my God, the beef strips are so great I feel bad nothing is left of it for me to enjoy now while I read their 'Go Vegan' slogan.

 

[Schlosser85]

I’d sooner eat some PETA moron than go vegan, they’re worth nothing anyway.

 

[Lighthouse]

That vegetable diet really flavors their meat.

 

[Abudefduf]

This is completely irrelevant but in italian "peta" is just a fancy way to say "(he/she) farts." That's all I can think every time I hear their name

 

[Black Narcissus]

Man, I'm always disappointed when these kind of stunts don't happen in my area. I would've told that dude to cut me off a piece of that leg.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

What I have to say to annoying militant vegans all around the world:
ALL PLANTS/PLANT LIFE MATTER(S), STARVE YOURSELVES.

 

[terry78]

It's good to see you're keeping a cool head about you.

 

[Guts]

I guess it makes sense that vegans are the villains. The two latest actors to play the Joker, Jared Leto and Joaquin Phoenix are vegan.

 

[Schlosser85]

Hitler was vegetarian.....just saying.

 

[Guts]

He wouldn't be accepted by Vegans though.

In a 1937 article, The New York Times noted "It is well known that Hitler is a vegetarian and does not drink or smoke. His lunch and dinner consist, therefore, for the most part of soup, eggs, vegetables and mineral water, although he occasionally relishes a slice of ham and relieves the tediousness of his diet with such delicacies as caviar ..."

 

[Schlosser85]

Hitler was #problematic.

They're right up there with flat earthers, scientologists and Donald Trump.
