Peta offers Lindsey Lohan to pay for her rehab if ... She goes Vegetarian


PETA, finding out that Linds has fallen on "tough economic times" has offered to help pay for her rehab…under one condition.
She has to live substance free, including the most toxic substance, MEAT!

The letter sent to Lindsay read:

Dear Lindsay,
We understand that you've fallen on tough economic times, so we're writing to you with an offer that we sincerely hope you'll consider.
PETA will help pay your $50,000 bill for substance addiction treatment if you'll rid yourself of one more toxic substance: meat. As you know, a crucial part of any recovery is showing charity to others. One way to do this is to be kind to animals, the Earth, and your own body. You'll never regret it.
When animals are crammed together on factory farms, disease spreads fast, so cows, chickens, and other animals are fed large amounts of antibiotics to make them grow more quickly and keep them alive in filthy conditions that would otherwise kill them. However, the health risks involved in using such methods are so great that many countries have banned the use of antibiotics and hormones in animals who are raised and killed for food. In addition to feeding antibiotics to animals who are raised for food, farmers in the U.S. give powerful growth-stimulating steroids to cattle, which means that you ingest drugs every time you take a bite of chicken, pork, fish, or beef. Many animals are also sprayed with pesticides. And consuming animal-derived products exposes you to pathogens such as E. coli, listeria, and campylobacter. Finally, much of the meat sold in the U.S. is contaminated with fecal bacteria.
The good news is that a clean, tasty vegan diet can provide all the nutrients that you need, minus the contaminants, saturated fat, and cholesterol that are found in animal flesh, eggs, and dairy foods. Vegans also have stronger immune systems than meat-eaters. It's all good news.
Today, stores carry everything from soy "Buffalo wings" to fakin' bacon and fib ribs—not to mention a wealth of fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts, grains, and more—so it has never been easier to go vegan. California rehabilitation centers have a great reputation for catering to vegan patients too. To help guide your decision, we'll be sending you our new "Glass Walls" DVD, narrated by Sir Paul McCartney, and our vegetarian/vegan starter kit, which is full of useful information.
Please let us know if you'd like to take us up on our offer. I can be reached at XXXXXXXX.

Best wishes,

Michelle Cho

Pamela Anderson for Peta !




PETA wowed everyone with their newest campaign featuring Pamela Anderson.
Pam posed in a teeny weeny bikini, but there was a catch. She was divided into chunks of meat.
Pam and PETA wanted to show people that animals have the same parts we do, so we should not be eating them.
Pam, who is an avid vegetarian thought that this idea was great, she explained, "the biggest issue that I like to talk about is the cruelty that goes into killing animals for slaughter."

Lady Gaga Tells Ellen DeGeneres “I Am Not a Piece of Meat”











We just think sometimes enough is enough , but sadly some people can't understand that !
For the cover of Japanese Vogue, Lady Gaga wore a bikini made out of meat and PETA was not pleased. But, the singer is still rocking the look and even wore a meat dress to the VMAs.
and above all she seemed so proud of her meat purse ! come on girl ... we thought you were a bit more respectful than that !

“What is the purpose of the meat?” Ellen asked Gaga during her taping for the Season 8 premiere of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
“Well, it is certainly no disrespect to anyone that is vegan or vegetarian. As you know, I am the most judgment free human being on the earth,” Gaga explained. “However, it has many interpretations but for me this evening if we don’t stand up for what we believe in and if we don’t fight for our rights pretty soon we’re going to have as much rights as the meat on our bones. And, I am not a piece of meat.”
BLA BLA BLA !

PETA President Ingrid Newkirk about Lady Gaga's cover for Vogue homme Japan


"Lady GaGa's job is to do outlandish things, and this certainly qualifies as outlandish because meat is something you want to avoid putting on or in your body. No matter how beautifully it is presented, flesh from a tortured animal is flesh from a tortured animal. Meat represents bloody violence and suffering, so if that's the look they were going for, they achieved it." PETA President Ingrid Newkirk
What do you think ? overreacting ?
