Good Grief! "Peanuts" Lucy Could Go to Jail!

16. Can't help but notice that there is no reference to '70's, 60's or any decade in the TMZ article. This girl WAS in both Star Trek and Odd Couple, and a shoot-load of other TV shows. And she was annoying in all of them.

Now she's being an annoying political activist. This is NEWS?

Hey TMZ, here's a wacky and bizarre idea... why not spend ONE DAY only reporting the positive, worth-while causes and events celebrities are promoting instead of finding the worst you can?

Just for ONE DAY??

Too much to ask I guess.

17. Big Old Geek, let me know when this will happen, I'll be sure to skip the site that day.

Maybe the news should only report good stories and we should all run around with flowers in our hair singing happy songs.

Good Grief!

20. Jeff--

You're right. What was I thinking? It was a moment of weakness. I knew better but I just had to try.

Good grief.

21. Hey Truthslinger...

Looks like I came into the conversation a little late. Thanks for the update.

I think I should just stop adding comments. I'm not really good at this.

Good luck to y'all.

22. The "Hollywood crowd" is so misinformed. I believe they are actulaay tring to do what's best for pets but following a PETA agenda is the wrong way to go.

7 Things You Didn't Know About PETA

Posted: February 27, 2003

1) PETA president and co-founder Ingrid Newkirk has described her group’s overall goal as “total animal liberation.” This means no meat, no milk, no zoos, no circuses, no wool, no leather, no hunting, no fishing, and no pets (not even seeing-eye dogs). PETA is also against all medical research that requires the use of animals.
2) Despite its constant moralizing about the “unethical” treatment of animals by restaurant owners, grocers, farmers, scientists, anglers, and countless other Americans, PETA has killed over 10,000 dogs and cats at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. During 2003, PETA put to death over 85 percent of the animals it collected from members of the public.

3) PETA has given tens of thousands of dollars to convicted arsonists and other violent criminals. This includes a 2001 donation of $1,500 to the North American Earth Liberation Front (ELF), an FBI-certified “domestic terrorist” group responsible for dozens of firebombs and death threats. During the 1990s, PETA paid $70,200 to an Animal Liberation Front (ALF) activist convicted of burning down a Michigan State University research laboratory. In his sentencing recommendation, a federal prosecutor implicated PETA president Ingrid Newkirk in that crime. And PETA vegetarian campaign coordinator Bruce Friedrich told an animal rights convention in 2001 that “blowing stuff up and smashing windows” is “a great way to bring about animal liberation.”

4) PETA activists regularly target children as young as six years old with anti-meat and anti-milk propaganda, often waiting outside their schools to intercept them as they walk to and from class-without notifying parents. One piece of kid-targeted PETA literature tells small children: “Your Mommy Kills Animals!” PETA brags that its messages reach over 2 million children every year, including thousands reached by e-mail without the permission of their parents. One PETA vice president told the Fox News Channel’s audience: “Our campaigns are always geared towards children, and they always will be.”

5) PETA has used a related organization, the PETA Foundation, to fund the misnamed Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), a deceptive animal rights group that promotes itself as an unbiased source of medical and nutritional information. PCRM's president also serves as president of the PETA Foundation.

6) PETA runs campaigns seemingly calculated to offend religious believers. One entire PETA website is devoted to the claim-despite ample evidence to the contrary-that Jesus Christ was a vegetarian. PETA holds protests at houses of worship, even suing one church that tried to protect its members from Sunday-morning harassment. Its billboards taunt Christians with the message that hogs “died for their sins.” PETA insists, contrary to centuries of rabbinical teaching, that the Jewish ritual of kosher slaughter shouldn't be allowed. And its infamous “Holocaust on Your Plate” campaign crassly compares the Jewish victims of Nazi genocide with farm animals.

7) PETA has repeatedly attacked research foundations like the March of Dimes, the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the American Cancer Society, because they support animal-based research that might uncover cures for birth defects and life-threatening diseases. PETA president Ingrid Newkirk has said that “even if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, we would be against it.”

25. I once had 2 mice as pets---one named Snoopy and the other named Ben---when I was a kid in the 1970's. I used to sing that stupid Micael Jackson song "Ben" to Ben the mouse. My parents ended up paying me to quit singing that inane song. Snoopy always felt left out.
So I tried to hum the Schroeder theme but couldn't.
I often wondered, in my reverie when riding my banana seat bike down the street in my cookie cutter suburban neighborhood of 1974, if Linus on "Charlie Brown" was named after Linus Pauling, the research scientist.

I was such an odd kid and I knew I was odd.

26. Two Minded Zombies,
Remember, you ain't funny, and as Dan Quayle once said, "it's a terrible thing to lose your mind(s). Know what I mean? Somebody really should jackslap you back to reality. Any takers? Oh, and censor this!

27. GOOD FOR HER!!!! Someone has to do these things. Animal testing is UNNECESSARY; however, because it's
cheaper is widely used. She does this and brings light to the atrocities happening to our companion animals.
Btw, Lucy was always my favorite! XO

28. Good for her! Pamelyn is standing up for what she believes in! Research on animals is cruel and unnecessary!!! People are the only one's who can give animals a voice! I can't believe so few of you care.
