Valin Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Townhall:John Ransom12/27/11PETA has asked the Department of Transportation in Illinois to commemorate the spot where 16 cows lost their life on May 22 in a traffic accident says a report in the Chicago Tribune.The cows plunged from the back of a tractor trailer when it jackknifed on a bridge on an I-80 highway overpass.I’m wondering if we could just have a memorial BBQ. I’ll bring the grill. (Snip)The PETA proposal memorializing the Cow-Victims-of-5/22 asks Illinois to glorify the animals that died while performing their function “in the meat trade.” (Snip)The problem for PETA isn’t that their proposal is outrageous, stupid, ridiculous, insulting and loony; no the problem for PETA is the same problem that the rest of us have with government. The only reason why Illinois politicians aren’t rushing to support PETA in raising a memorial is because PETA doesn’t have the cash to get the graft machine to use the misguided law regulating personal acts of grief to help PETA with their outrageous, stupid, ridiculous, insulting and loony proposal.

Valin Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 VERY WELL PUT! The sad thing is PETA doesn't understand how silly this makes them look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SrWoodchuck Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Personally, I think a "Memorial" to these cows, should be rarely done......but my wife says it's OK if it's done well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL As long as it is tender, and done in good taste, it is fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
