PETA attacks white males in to save animals
Just when you thought the white male could stoop no lower, PETA tells us that white men don't care about animal cruelty.
No, this isn't a joke, though I thought it was when a postcard from PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) making such a claim crossed my desk a few days ago. Here's how the PETA assault on white males begins: "If the idea of animals' being castrated without anesthetics on factory farms isn't at all unsettling to you, chances are you're a man and you're white."
The purpose of the card ostensibly is to tout a PETA-sponsored Zogby International poll that examined the eating habits of Americans, all geared at guessing how much longer we have to endure America's meat-eating ways before we advance to national vegetarianism.
Could it be because white men are raised on `sports' such as fishing and rodeo? (http://www.townhall.com/columnists/kathleenparker/kp20030120.shtml)
