It’s Fear-Mongering Friday!
Jun 20th, 2008 by Will Potter
- We’ve got an unholy, hotter’n hell theme going this week. Here’s some of the nuttier “eco-terrorism” scare-mongering going on:
- People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals “is undistinguishable from al Qaeda, Hamas, and Hezbollah.” Well, except for the guns. And the tofu.
- Meanwhile, an Australian priest says Peta is “the occult.” Praise Seitan!
- Keeping with the demonic theme, I remembered this old LA Weekly article that says Los Angeles is the “‘epicenter’ of animal-rights extremism in the nation.” That’s kind of like the hellmouth.
- Speaking of hell (and I can say this because I grew up around there), did you know Dallas is ruled by animal rights groups? If by “animal rights groups” they mean “women in fur coats with big hair and men driving dualies” then yes, yes it is.




But have you tried Spiral Diner? Bruther, I go all the way back just for that. Seeing family is just an excuse. . .

I looooove Spiral Diner. And, despite occasional trash-talking, I actually have some weird Texas pride (I think it’s something they put in the water).

Damn you and your Texas pride - you make all of us Texans look bad with your writings and your hair and such.
And why are they just now saying Dallas is ruled by ARAs? -we left a long time ago
@Bayless: Ha ha ha, they are a bit slow, aren’t they? Speaking of Texas, I could use a tour of the Dr. Pepper museum right now…
Maybe if you got your ass back to Texas you could tour the Dr. Pepper museum…and is it really such a problem that the ARA left Texas…its seems like business has gone up
Oh and before I get protested…I’m with Will.
I used to work at the Dr Pepper Museum. And I espouse terrorist ideals.
Will, I think I still have free tokens for that place…
Krissy: Dr. Pepper and terrorists… I think you’ve found the way to my heart.
I have to say and it shows real Texas Dr. Pepper pride - that the real DP place to go is not in Waco it is in Dublin, Texas.
