Rather Be Dead

Written by PETA

These brave PETA members took a completely new tack with the “Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” rallying cry yesterday, demonstrating for passersby that they would rather be naked, dead, and in downtown Reno than wear fur. I think it’s fair to say that there are simply no circumstances under which these young ladies would consider wearing fur. Which is the way it should be. Check out the pic below, and some coverage in The Reno Gazette here.

"I really really really admire these ladies' convictions! And I am very proud of them being REAL animal rights' activists! Thank you ladies!" yes most interesting. Can't wait for the next backpatting exercise.

Ok no problem. Here are abridged versions of VERY recent REAL comments RE the anti's Since they complain about our comments how STUPID are they to continue reading on an ANIMAL RIGHTS' blog site. So they're also attentionseeking losers who have nothing better to do in life. Another INTELLIGENT comment Ana and the other "regulars" on the PETA files frequently have succinct interesting comments to share for the benefit of those who are relatively new here and and who are truly interested in learning about animal rights. and I will add that Michele is also one of those "regulars" who frequently has succinct interesting comments to share for the benefit...of those who are truly interested in learning about ar's Satisfied anti?

Ariel and Michele I always enjoy reading your intelligent and well thought out comments. Anyone who reads your comments is bound to become more aware of what animal activism really is. The animals need people like both of you. Apparently rojo recognized his own description hence his response. He needs to polish up on his spelling before making anymore vacuous and nonsensical remarks. I notice another also made a snide remark glad to see my description paints such an accurate picture of them. Thank you for always helping the animals with intelligent arguments and with selfless deeds of compassion for them.

Ana and the other "regulars" on the PETA files frequently have very succinct interesting comments to share for the benefit of those who are relatively new here and who are truly interested in learning more about animal rights. Ana certainly does not have to justify her contributions to this site just because certain people with reading comprehension problems and no desire to actually learn anything new have nothing but an "I know you are but what am I?" type of comment to make. Clearly PETA and its supporters are having an impact on the real critics given that these anti's have no real response to what they are readingseeing.
