I'm sure we will hear from our Peta friends during the derby trail... This is what we are dealing with. I'm glad the feds finally got their act together and are calling them we have been seeing them for sometime.

Listen, PETA annoys me as much as the next person who actually spends time around animals, but comparing their protests and billboards to a guy who blows up buildings is a bit of stretch, no? You might as well say every person whose ever stood with a sign outside an abortion clinic is a doctor-shooting murderer. Or that every person who attended one of those Teabagging Parties is a nascent Oklahoma City bomber.

I certainly hope they catch the guy, but let's not indulge in hyperbole. PETA does enough of that.

Actually no it is not a stretch. I am speaking at the organizational level not each individual. What I do think is a stretch is your extrapolation of my comments. I think you need to do some research on Peta.. Have a nice day.

PETA has been on the FBI domestic terrorist org list for years, as PETA donations from kindhearted, loves-animal types funds ALF (Animal Liberation Front) and other orgs that kill people, bomb buildings, etc.
