Five Times PETA Tried to Guilt Americans Out of Eating Turkey on Thanksgiving

Breitbart: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has come out in full force, as it does every year, to attempt to dissuade Americans from eating turkey on Thanksgiving.

Every year, the activist group uses a variety of methods on social media to guilt meat-eating Americans out of enjoying a succulent and juicy Thanksgiving staple, urging them to opt for an alternative vegan option instead. This year was no exception.

Here are PETA’s top five attempts to discourage Americans from indulging in a deep-fried or oven-roasted Butterball.

  1. All people eat everyday; several times. Why do these activists choose one day out of the year to castigate us on our meal choices? They probably hate Thanksgiving because we are celebrating America and freedom.

  3. I took a turkey to to the Longhorn Barbecue and had it smoked and will pick it up this morning in time for Thanksgiving dinner at my sons house this afternoon. And I’m buying some barbecue sauce as well just because. We’re going to have a great dinner and not a vegan (or pagan) in sight. Happy Thanksgiving everyone and my daughter and I are making challah this morning, a Thanksgiving tradition I started back in 1976 when I was dating my future wife.
