An official release informs that the first of two 30-second commercials
features a young woman who talks about teaching her children to
love and respect animals. However, she denounces Peta's support
of arson and other animal-rights violence as too extreme and unacceptable.
The second spot highlights Peta's opposition to all medical research
using animals. This includes efforts to find cures for leukemia,
multiple sclerosis, and Aids. Peta went to extent of donating $70,000
from its tax-exempt contributions to Rodney Coronado. The convicted
criminal burned down a Michigan State University research lab. Peta's
president Ingrid Newkirk recently referred to Coronado as a "fine
young man." The ad shows Coronado, videotaped less than a year after
his parole expired, demonstrating to student activists how to build
a firebomb.
The Center for Consumer Freedom is a non profit coalition supported
by restaurants, food companies, and consumers, working together
to promote personal responsibility and protect consumer choices.
