Tiger Woods Vs. PETA

Tiger Woods is scaremongering PETA with his team of lawyers, and it's working. The animal rights group has put a halt on releasing their latest billboard campaign featuring a photo of the golfer; it reads: "Too much sex can be a bad thing," and encourages pet owners to spay and neuters their animals. The organization told TMZ: "In light of conversations we have had with Mr. Woods' attorneys, plans to run our billboard are on hold at this time."

Originally, a spokeswoman for the group had hoped they'd get away with it, and said: “It's a fun, tongue-in-cheek approach. We're putting the focus where it needs to be. We're sure Tiger will appreciate our attempt to turn [his scandal] into something positive for little tigers.” Ecorazzi reports that they were attempting to run the campaign near Woods’s home in Windermere, Florida.

    This is way too fucking desperate. I'm sick of hearing about these trashy ads--though I do like the naked women ones, because of the nakedness and not the whole animal thing, i don't even remember what the message was.

    yup they do...maybe spend a little less money on stupid fucking billboards and take care of the animals you receive...jackasses.

    petakillsanimals.com was created by . Richard Berman and his lackey, David Martosko. They’re the shadowy flim-flam artists who do dirty work for agribusiness, tobacco interests and the like. They are the people who tell you that mercury-laced fish won't harm pregnant women and trans fats aren’t bad for you. And now they’re trying to tell you animals don’t matter.

    But Martosko saying he is a watchdog of animal protection is like a band of professional thieves acting as a home security company. He is a pro-cockfighting, pro-sealing, pro-puppy mill, pro-factory farming, pro-captive shooting hack whose organization does nothing but tear animal protection down and clear a pathway for animal abusers.

    Why would Berman and Martosko and their absurdly named Center for Consumer Freedom mock this alliance of law enforcement and animal rescue? I can only guess. I suspect they’re so money-hungry to shake down factory farming interests for cash to attack us that they’re blind to any kind of decency whatsoever.

    That’s right, they and their shadowy funders would let animals be thrown in the ring to die for the sake of slowing down the work of animal welfare groups

    The type of people that are against Peta are the same type that are against any cause that is not guns, bibles, and Palin like mentality. That is, people with very shallow perspective in who is manipulating information for their own PRO CORPORATE, agendas. Bad Peta! yet they are so totally ignorant about 4 big coportae powers controlling all meat products in the USA, abusing all sorts of legal systems, and paying the biggest lobbiests to make "flexible their selling of highly processed with amonia food.

    There are THOUSANDS of such corporate abuses in all lines of products and services, yet PETA is the one to demonize...

    These people are just very sad and noisy puppets, only useful for those that could not care less for how consumerism will ultimately contribute in their death.

    PETA lost my support - although not necessarily all the ideas they campaign for - when they adopted their 'No Fat Chicks' policy. Hate fat people? Join PETA and you can feel all PC about it!

    Calling all Gothamist users: Let's start a campaign to be truly humane, showing extreme compassion for the human race, and have felix neutered.

    Stupid cowboy fan's alleged humor is not dark. It's infantile. Indeed, he is a hateful ignorant people.

    Go away felix, or felixmongerer, or felix acquaintance, or whatever you are. We all know you are felix or in league with felix because no on will agree with his hippie philosophy that everything on the planet is better than human beings and so we should all roll over and die so that the fish and the cats and the elephants and the trees and flowers and viruses and bacteria can live on forever and ever.

  • Guest

    felix's alter ego? (but how would i know?)

    'he is a hateful ignorant people' is not a grammatically correct sentence, for *both* of you.

    the corrected sentence would be 'he is a hateful ignorant PERSON.'

  • niloo

    "the corrected sentence would be 'he is a hateful ignorant PERSON.'"

    No shit, Strunk and White.

  • FelixtheCat & Christine Quinn'

    jeez, why does stupid cowboy pollute a thread. this was all about spay and neutering your pet and stupid cowboy infantile always appears on animal welfare stories. what a bitter ignorant jerk.

  • FelixtheCat & Christine Quinn'

    no, it isn't me. Not a loser to create multiple login. This is my only one.

  • Guest

    i have a bunch. just got really lazy, so i don't use them. and i guess my laziness led me to evolve from being a loser with a multiple login...

    ...to what exactly? i dunno. another type of a loser maybe. haha

    I don't think it will work. Thanks to City Hall, we'd have to get a parade permit for that many people and it'd be tough to keep it under five hours.
