It looks like the nuts over at PETA must be having a problem getting people to pay attention to them. Since they can't get any attention any other way, they've started mixing a little sex and porn into their demonstrations. I doubt it's changing any minds about eating meat, but it is drawing some gawkers (and probably some perverts).
Last week in Beaumont, a couple of PETA girls stripped naked and took a shower behind a banner in the downtown section. They have also gotten naked in other cities. Anything to draw a crowd so they can pass out their propaganda.
But they had to tone their porn show down, when they appeared here in Amarillo yesterday. They continued the sex theme, but no one got naked. I suspect they didn't want to have to come up with bail money, and there's little doubt they would have been arrested if they had tried the naked bit in downtown Amarillo.
Instead, they just put a couple of girls dressed in lingerie on an inflatable mattress at the corner of 6th and Tyler (pictured above). I'm sure there were some disappointed pervs.
Of course, PETA has the right to demonstrate and exercise their free speech rights just like anyone else, but I still don't understand what sex and porn has to do with eating or not eating meat. Sounds like they're getting a little desperate to me.
And yes, I will continue eating meat.
