"
To me, PETA is a negative force in the world. They foment hate and use their resources to tear down and destroy. They could be spending time and money to quietly, legally pursue the improvement of animal welfare instead. I despise them." Meg, I agree with most of what you said here. The exception is the last sentence. I do not despise them. I am more amused by them

Meg: The mention of weapons is not anywhere near as bad as the assault on Ms. Lohan. One is words, the other is an actual assault. Still, threatening people for opinions is dumb. I know what organizations I support, and PETA is nowhere on the list

No. He responded to a THREAT with a THREAT. It was a symbolic response to the attack upon me for having a different opinion.

Again, I ask, how is his mention of weapons a worse offense than the actual assault upon the person of Ms. Lohan?

Thank you. I did try.

Meg: No, it had to do with Michael tacitly threatening violence on someone because they have a different opinion. I am with guadalcanal....I think PETA is a stupid organization.

Well, Abe, you called someone a "frigging blowhard" for daring to take offense at a PETA supporter threatening me with legal action. It is possible that you may be a PETA supporter, even if you don''t admit it.

Okay. PETA is a STUPID, TERRORIST organization. They would rather attack humans than help animals.

Lohan should hire a lawyer and bust PETA''s chops. She can afford an attorney. She was breaking no law and no TERRORIST organization like PETA has a right to attack her.

When was the last time you PETA activists did not wear a pair of leather shoes?...When was the last time you PETA activists did not eat meat?...When was the last time you PETA activists did not use your gas and oil burning cars?...I am not a Lindsay Lohan fan...but to her credit...at least she is not a hypocritical ignorant activist..Like PETA is....LEAVE HER ALONE! (you stupid people with nothing better to do with your lives than pointing your greasy fingers at someone else...Does it make you feel righteous or something?)

That''s okay. PETA supporters don''t mind attacks on animals of the human species.

Why is this fur thing even worth mentioning?
Instead the news should focus on why she used the term Colored to describe Obama. How much of a racist is she?

I suggest you be more careful. PETA is not a terrorist organization, and you labelling them as such is defamatory, which could subject you to legal liability. You might want to investigate the facts before you libel an organization. I hope PETA sues your pants off.

From Wikipedia, "Terrorism is the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion."

Also from Wikipedia "The organization has been criticized for some of its campaigns and for the number of animals it euthanizes.[9] It was also criticized in 2005 by Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe, who stated that PETA had acted as a "spokesgroup" for the Earth Liberation Front and Animal Liberation Front, after activists associated with those groups had committed what Inhofe called "acts of terrorism."[10]"

So,a terrorist organization uses coercion, and you now threaten me with legal action to take away my right to free speech.

You just proved my point, with your heavy-handed verbal attack.

As far as I''m concerned any of the environmentalists out there who don''t live in a grass hut with no power and sewer services and don''t eat anything but grass and seaweed...you don''t have a right to question anybody''s lifestyle. Any environmentalist who is writing on the website is a hypocrite. You are burning fossil fuel or using nuclear fuel to run the electricity in your home. One other point...EVERYTHING you own is brought to you in trucks, and guess what? Trucks burn fossil fuels. I know this post is about PETA but I can bet my last nickle PETA is involved in a lot more protesting than just critters...they just change their names to Greenpeace or something

She''''s lesbian. She''''s entitled to be as much a racist as any non-white person* is entitled to call her a perceptually derogatory epithet too.

* or even a white person.

For the record, which order of the KKK does Lohan belong to? Or does she belong to an Aryan organization? Her fans want and need to know these things.

Her black mink stole obviously symbolizes a dead "colored", as she would say, person draped across her shoulders, like a war trophy.
