dave, things like that happen all the time. peta is always blaming other organizations without any proof, including ffa. peta needs to learn how to just fuck off once in a while.

yea…. this is just ridiculous
i’m not a fan of fur but that is WAY out of line! WAY OUT OF LINE!

PETA has some ridiculous assumptions. I grew up in a small farm community and was an officer in the FFA and during my senior year PETA accused our organization of abusing animals and (i’m not even joking) they based this assumption on an incident that happened two years prior where a boy in Oregon sodomized a pig and the school he went to had FFA so they said the FFA influenced him to do it… there was absolutely no truth to the article and the FFA organization filed a lawsuit.

PETA seriously needs to get a life or something. Fine for having an organization that helps protect exploitation and suffering of animals, but just because they don’t agree with people wearing fur and other animal products doesn’t mean PETA have the right to force their views on others. If they have a problem with a company, person, or designer using animal products, simply just not buy the product instead of making themselves look like a bunch of jackasses!!!

It still seems to me that she was “punked” or tricked or mislead or whatever you want to call it way based on the news stories, it does not seem that she would intentionally let PETA into her home or sit down with someone from PETA, since they’ve been targeting her for quite awhile now. And the punked came from the original news article – I post ‘em as I see ‘em.

“We can only assume Donna was tricked….” Care to amend the first sentence of your latest post?

My original beef (take that, PETA) with you posting this story had to do with the mis-characterization that DK was “punked.” From there, I’ve done nothing but correct you, including in this post. It has nothing to do with negativity or not getting along.

I didn’t say we “only” have to assume anything. But we can only go by what’s printed. Anything you read on the internet is not necessarily true and remains up for interpretation. And I wouldn’t say that the NY Post’s Page Six is any more (or less) reliable when it comes to facts than my source. I can’t fathom why Donna would intentionally let a PETA person into her home, or why her assistant would either – what is your theory? And why all the negativity? Can’t we all just get along?

What? No, we don’t “only” have to assume that. But I’m glad you’re still making assumptions without regard to facts. Keep up the good work!

You are correct, her assistant did. We can only assume Donna was tricked into thinking the PETA person was there for some other purpose.
