Kelis' Letter to PETA http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=58092027&blogId=525841025 I'm not Kelis fan, but she is great for what she said about PETA. I wish one day that could be a death match stage between PETA and Westboro Baptist Church, the winner (or survivors) get to stay in America...but they can only live in (exhale to) a desolated bordertown in South New Mexico.
PETA is just stupid and only makes people hate their cause. That being said, she's just regurgitating the same claims that have been hurled at PETA for quite a while now. A certain episode Penn and Teller's Bull**** in particular. And its a horrible argument to say that vegetarians are "ok" with minorities picking their vegetables.
I saw a documentary of PETA and to be honest the founder is seriously jacked up. It's gotten so out of hand. The funny thing is the Co-Founder left PETA a long time ago and left it to her because he personally felt it was going the wrong direction with her actions.

I would feel so terribly awful for those in the South New Mexico bordertown who would be potentially breathed on.
The whole insulin thing is just straight proof that this woman and her nut-brained organization operate under the "the ends justify the means" mentality. Dangerous people.
Regardless of grammar or whatever people take issue with, she had valid points. They've been said about PETA before numerous times before, of course, but she is right regardless of the way she said. I'm not sure what issues people would have with what she said exactly.
Yeah, but her letter would sound a lot more credible if it wasn't so poorly written. And it is VERY poorly written.
I agree. I really wish people would pay more attention to their grammar on their Myspace blogs (and Houston Rockets internet forums.)
Well, it's one thing to have bad grammar when you're posting on a blog or a forum. It's another when you're writing a response-in-protest letter.
It wasn't just the grammar and sentence structure. She throws out terms (natural selection) and concepts she doesn't understand. I'm not a fan of PETA but I'm not a fan of ignorance masquerading as enlightenment either. She sounds like the hip-hop Sara Palin to me.

PETA is just one big media w****!!! all they do is blast celebrities who wear fur or own exotic animals. Why aren't they helping the poor homeless pets that are put to sleep in shelters because they don't have a home?
PETA is made up of idiots, everyone knows that. If it weren't for the meat, I doubt cattle would exist here in the U.S. I'm not saying that as fact, as I'm too lazy to look it up (to see if they're a domestic animal or not...). The insulin thing is a great point.Not to mention all of the animals killed and displaced when forests have been cut down in lieu of farmland, so that we could grow more vegetables. Hypocrites.
