chaobell | Whose turn was it to keep PETA from doing stupid shit this week? (Reply)

So I guess they figured “Well, we’ve pissed pretty much everyone in the US off, now we’ve pissed pretty much everyone in Canada off, who are we missing… O RITE!”

In a spectacular display of ignorance, PETA talking head Lindsay Rajt offers this gem:

“We think that Mexicans and other immigrants should be warned if they cross into the U.S. they are putting their health at risk by leaving behind a healthier, staple diet of corn tortillas, beans, rice, fruits and vegetables.”

Yeah, this would be the point where my jaw hit the floor.

Good grief, lady, while you’re at it you might as well take out full-page ads in New Orleans telling black people to stop eating fried chicken and stick with the watermelon and collard greens.

I have called PETA a lot of unkind things in the past, but not “racist shitheads.” Until now, anyway. Ugh. UGH.
