Equal Rights for AnimalsEqual Rights for Animals? Believe it or not, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals may have finally gone too far. The group, which decries the killing of chickens but apparently has no stand on the partial-birth abortion of human beings, has decided to suspend its latest animal rights campaign—just a few weeks after kicking off its national tour. The exhibit went by the bizarre title, “Are Animals the New Slaves?�It compared the lynching of black Americans to the killing of animals for food. Twelve panels showed such images as noosed black men hanging from trees, juxtaposed with shots of slaughtered cows. But, even though PETA now appears to be pulling back, the damage has already been done. The exhibit appeared in 17 cities before PETA decided to put the campaign on hold. PETA spokesperson Dawn Carr told the Associated Press, “We’re not continuing right now while we evaluate. We’re reviewing feedback we’ve received—most of it overwhelmingly positive and some of it quite negative.�/P> I’d really like the chance to see those individuals who offered the positive feedback. Were they on two legs or four? PETA has certainly had some shenanigans to its credit in the past, but this latest stunt truly crosses the line. In New Haven, Connecticut, the situation surrounding the exhibit became so volatile that police had to be called in. This has to be insensitivity at its highest.
