Now PETA's Got Beef With....

...the American Cancer Society!?! WTF?!

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, a group with wayyy too much time on their hands, is now going after the American Cancer Society ... for trying to fight cancer -- in humans!

After the ACS went after Michael Jordan for smoking during a softball game earlier this week, the folks at PETA, who obviously couldn't stand to see another organization get attention, released a strongly worded letter of their own -- attacking the people dedicated to helping actual, living Homo sapiens.

Here's the statement: "The ACS needs to get its own act together before it calls a foul on Michael Jordan." See, PETA claims the folks at the ACS are hypocrites because they have fundraisers where they serve "cancer-linked" foods -- and by cancer-linked they mean dead animal, like beef.

Imagine how screwed the Muscular Dystrophy Association's gonna be when PETA finds out Jerry Lewis had a steak once.

62. I have a story for you about PETA! In early August, here in Canada, a young man named Tim McLean, was murdered, beheaded and cannibalized while a passenger on a Grey Hound bus. PETA, wanted to take out an ad in the Portage Daily Graphic, a local newspaper compairing his murder with the killing of animals!!! While I understand that animals feel fear and pain when killed. How can PETA compare the two? Needless to say the newspaper didn't run the ad!

65. TMZ - a website dedicated to embarassing celebrities, fueling stupid star gossip, and pretending to be some sort of real information source.

PETA - an organization dedicated to helping animals - animals that suffer, are murdered, cruely tested on, and otherwise looked down upon like a disposable item. These animals include those dogs that are chained and neglected, or abused, in your towns. Really, put your pet in the place of other animals and the way they are allowed to be treated, though this is something many people don't have the courage to do. This mentality of "if I'm not doing it, it doesn't matter, and I have the right to criticize it" is ignorant.

As for the ridiculous, and blatantly stupid comments people are leaving on here, just consider the fact that you are mentioning that PETA is for people with too much time, clearly your own time is used so productively. Actually, the most entertainment I've had all month is reading the rant about not correcting spelling. You do a lot for the ideas that Americans are internet and celebrity obsessed idiots that can't construct proper sentences.

Really, the information about PETA fed to you by TMZ does nothing but tarnish the image of an organization that is trying to help living creatures, no matter what facts you love to present, or one sided versions of PETA rumors, helping animals is what PETA does. And though all you may know is paint being thrown at fur coats and statements made about other companies. The accomplishments of PETA on grassroots, local, national, and even legislative levels are beyond your uninformed critiques. Do something important.

66. Mmmmmm.....Love me some beef, chicken, pork and any other animal I can skewer!
PETA is a bunch of attention grabbing whores whom don't have the sense that GOD gave a goose.
F******g Nut Jobs!
BTW, Animal flesh tastes best when it has been roasted over a grill!
Anyone for roasted stray cat?
I hear it's delightful and you help contain the damn stray cat problem.
I find it more humane that just hitting the cats with a bat...I'm just sayin.

72. It's a real shame that PETA gets any attention. The PETA clowns are a bunch of extremist and they are very dangerous. I feel very sorry for the idiot celebrities that support these terriorists without doing any research as to their real agendas.

73. I always know that when someone is reporting something and acting like a complete, biased, arrogant jerk that there is more to the story than meets the eye! It's funny but if you really look at the information out there today and research diet and lifestyle from the leading experts and not the faddish diet "doctors", PETA is absolutely right! Dead animals are deadly! Whomever reported this is a major tard who can't spell. You truly must be desperate for help around there!

74. All who commented on this....PETA is 100% right! I love it! They are the telling the truth. Learn some facts for yourselves. Stop living in the stone ages and wake up! Eating meat & dairy....causes lots of dis-ease. CANCER...and OBESITY. How many of you meat eaters who commented are over-weight???? or have other health issues???? How many of you are on some sort of medication???? Get with the times people, the information is out there. Learn how to eat healthy and stop being so ignorant. PETA may go overboard sometimes, but it's usually the truth. But as we all know the truth is hard to hear. Stop using your bodies for graveyards!
