PETA Ad Comparing Bus Beheading To Livestock Slaughter Is A Warmed-Over Retread From 1991



Washington, DC -- It's official: PETA has run out of original ideas. The group's controversial Canadian ad comparing the Greyhound bus murder of Tim McLean to the routine slaughter of livestock is nothing new. It was first seen back in 1991 in the United States, following the cannabalistic serial murders of Jeffrey Dahmer.

imageThe ad provoked similar outrage back then, and for the same reasons. The animal rights group has clearly learned nothing in the last seventeen years, and continues to promote the same kind of repulsive messages -- all of which are rooted in the deeply offensive idea that there's nothing exceptional about human beings. The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) has a copy of PETA's seventeen-year-old ad, which first ran in The Des Moines Register on August 9, 1991. It's nearly identical to the one that sparked this week's uproar. That image is attached to this e-mail. David Martosko, CCF's Director of Research, is available to speak with reporters about the prevailing mindset inside PETA and the disturbed worldview that causes the organization to draw attention to itself in such a destructive fashion. PETA's leaders, and many of its followers, embrace a quasi-religious view that seeks to elevate animals to the level of people. But as we learned from Nazi Germany -- history's single most friendly regime to the animal-rights philosophy -- it's only possible to lower people to the level of animals. This week's tasteless stunt from PETA is just the latest demonstration of this truth.
