Scott Toop, in a secret negotiation session brokered by hip-hop mogul and entrepreneur Russell Simmons, a PETA supporter. By the end of the meeting, KFC had agreed to consult with a group of mutually agreed-upon animal welfare experts and to put together a proposal for action within 30 days. In return, PETA agreed to suspend all anti-KFC activities during that time. Read PETA's summary of the meeting, as sent in a letter to KFC.PETA's recommendations are based on the most up-to-date research on poultry welfare, including the work of these same scientists, so it was no surprise that the five independent experts, who include the top poultry scientists in the U.K., Canada, and the United States, endorsed PETA's program for improving animal welfare at KFC.Despite their unanimous opinion in favor of reforms, KFC's COO, general counsel, and others announced at the next meeting in Mr. Simmons' office on March 28 that they were not accepting even one part of their own experts' four-point plan. This meeting lasted five hours and ended with both sides agreeing to accept a revised proposal from just two of the experts, Drs. Ian Duncan and Temple Grandin, two of the world's top experts in farmed animal welfare.After several additional discussions, KFC has now refused to accept these experts' recommendations or, in fact, to do anything to eliminate the very worst abuses suffered by animals raised and killed for its restaurants.KFC's proposed "plan of action" on animal welfare did not contain a single step that would improve the life of a single animal. It contained vague statements and limp promises to write letters and do research but nothing that would prevent a single chicken from becoming crippled or being scalded alive in a defeathering tank while still fully conscious. KFC was apparently so unconvinced by its own plan that it refused to allow PETA to keep a copy of it after our meeting to share with the public. Read PETA's letter to KFC, spelling out the problems with KFC's plan of action.Because of KFC's refusal to act, PETA is reigniting its campaign against the company and calling on compassionate people around the world to join the boycott of KFC until KFC agrees to make all the changes recommended by independent animal welfare scientists.You Can Help!If you still eat chicken, please stop eating at KFC until it agrees to improve the way it treats chickens. If you've already stopped eating chicken, educate others to do the same, and check out more ways for you to get involved with PETA's campaign.

ryan2772 Posted April 11 Report Share Posted April 11 i saw this news report ala 20/20 talking about peta supporting ALF, animal liberation front. they firebomb animal testing facilities and hospitals that engage in animal testing. a friend of mine is a med student at UM, and in her 3 years there she's been evacuated for bomb threats several times. the report talked about how peta supports ALF and organizations like them that use violence to further their cause. it's ironic because the president of peta is diabetic, and the medicine she uses to continue her life was developed using animal testing.

They campaign opposing violence against animals so they shouldn't use violence to further their cause. Maybe it was a rouge group of people claiming to be PETA who commited the violence.....?

Guest slamminshaun Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 No worries, just a customer satisfaction survey for my SUV. I wrote in the comment box: "I am very satisfied as to how much fossil fuel I burn. The more, the merrier. Anything I can do to help Haliburton and Bush's oil buddies get richer is fine with me. Please consider a less fuel-friendly SUV for 2006.

Guest shannon_coolj. Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 I used to be a card-carrying member of PETA (and also a vegan). But sometimes PETA goes to extremes to achieve its goal and that's why i quit. There are so many more effective ways to get across the message of animal cruelty than supporting terrorist groups and throwing paint on people who are wearing furs.

Yeah but people who put on a fur is really asking for it...(from those who throw paint that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
