I would love to go too...will talk to hubby and see if we can make it.

O, this is two pair of shoes...what they do...i.e free animals, hide money whatever has nothing to do with them educating people. There undercover investigations show a lot of sad things...and yes big companies are targeted and they fire back....Logical, isn't it?

I am not giving them my money. I read up on current animal issues and it educates me about things I have ( and probably most people) never even thought of....

Hm...no integrity at all.... Sorry to hear.

These reports were on the petakillsanimals website. hard to see but when you read them you will see that in 2009 of over 11K animals 2.3K were euthanized and not like it is actually advertised on the same website - 2.3 taken in and 2.3K were euthanized.

Yes Peta euthanizes animals because we as the public cannot (are too ignorant) or refuse to take responsibility for our own animals and leave the responsibility to other people. I agree sometimes because they can't take care of them anymore. The Montgomery county animal shelter (definition of shelter - anyone please?) alone receives 700-900 cats and dogs A MONTH!!!!! and barely 100 are adopted out! Where do you suggest are they supposed to keep all these pets?

I am sorry, but I think I am pretty well informed, being a volunteer and having worked with rescue groups. Unfortunately these pets are put down but I say it again, it is because of people that keep buying puppies at malls and breeders and overbreeding is done for money...OH WAIT...we are back to the money issue, funny (or sad for that matter) how all suffering is done through money.. Where do you think the puppies go that have not been sold in the mall by the time they get too big and aren't CUTE enough anymore.

Like I said before. There will always be people out there that will produce rumors and fabricated facts to confuse the public - if you will dig long enough you will find something, but like I said, they don't even have their facts straight on their own website.

Kind of like I heard in the news today...someone is saying President Obama cheated on his wife. Let the detective work begin...is it true (someone dug deep enough to make a case against someone who is successful) or is it just a rumor???

If you are lucky enough to move on....RIP !!!

Kinda interesting went on a ride yesterday...and I acually hesitate wearing my summerweight mc gear b/c I want maximum protection if something should happen. I could never ever get on my bike in shorts and tshirt, or even without a helmet. Sure freaks me out how some people ride here.

LoLoL... being a conscious omnivore is one thing. Supporting a criminal/terrorist sponsoring movement like PETA is quite another.

by the way that is all I am hoping for - People turning into CONSIOUS omnivores.

Don't save money on the meat you buy, if it is cheap, it is that for a reason...poor treatment of animals and mass production. And skip meat a day or a few days a week - it does a body good.

That's all I got, because that is what it is all about.

We are hunters. hunters have eyes on the front of their head to judge distance and be accute while hunting. Prey animals have eyes on the sides to look out for predators. Look at the lion and the gazelle.

chevysoldier...YES that is correct, but we are not doing that anymore (a minority might still do that) ...we are using and abusing animals and not hunting them to survive! We can survive WELL without meat if we choose to.

I am not supporting them...they are supporting me ...my views that is.

I am for the ethnical treatment of animals. So, there. PETA and I see eye to eye.

Take it or leave it. Look up any organization and you will find pros and cons...opposers will always find something bad about the org and supporters always find something good.

Look at it this way to each there own. We can get along you eat vegs and we eat meat. Just dont push things you think is right because some people have to eat meat do to the protein from the meat. Veg dont have that kind of protein

as for slaughter house that prepair meat on how they treat animals that should be left up to the usda harder laws not by people that think every body should eat vegs

I totally agree, I have no problem with people eating meat. I get hot when I read ignorant comments.

Humans have eaten meat forever, but it was not meant to be in this magnitude! That is what I have a problem with. We are mass producing cows, chicken and pigs for cheap meat. ONE slaughterhouse slaughters 6000 animals an hour!! How can anyone think that this can be without stress and pain for animals? Cows feel pain just like a dog - they scream in fear just like humans or our "domesticated" animals do.

I am not against the farmer that kept animals the correct way on pastures and humanely ends their life to make money for his family to make a living. Capitalism is what is destroying this world, sadly.

And I do have a problem with insensitive comments about meat. It did not grow in a plastic box, it was given birth to by a mammal and we take the liberty to destroy it (because our eyes are in front of our head and not on the side (???))

Think seal pup bashing on the ice NO

save the hump back whales NO

humane treatment of animals NO

clean oil off of animals after a oil spill NO

brain wash kids not to eat meat

and skin ad of females how degrading yes a weiner 04-29-2010 09:07 AM

Seriously??????

comparing a PETA activist with a pedophile is pretty stupid. So you don't let them go see Santa and the Easter Bunny and whoever...just because someone knows who they are does not mean they are not pedophiles...

PETA does some great work and anyone making fun of animals being slaughtered is a dumb uneducated F***!!!

My 0.025 cts....

Don't rush to judgment. The husband could have been abusive and what she did was the only way to get away. It happens wait till you hear her side of the story before the name calling starts.

Whatever!!!!! If I am in an abusive relationship the last thing I would do is run away with another guy!!!!!!

She should pay for all the mobilization of the cops and everyone that was looking for her. SHE CAUSED IT - not her husband who was worried about her... The agony the family went through because they were not sure if she was dead or alive????

You are not allowed to make prank 911 calls so what about this???

I am so pissed at this.

Why the F*** did she just not say...here is the kid, I am gone?

UGH....URKS ME BIG TIME!!!

OMG..that deals gap video was frickin' AWESOME!!! I wanagoiwanago!!!

I'm not really in this population, but my complaint is how long they're taking to process refunds. Between education credit, and my buying my first house this year, my tax refund is gonna be nice. For some reason, the IRS told me yesterday when I called to check the status, that those refunds can take "up to 4 months, maybe more" to process. I just don't understand how they can take THAT long for what basically amounts to an extra form being submitted, along with closing docs. I don't have plans for the money, but I think it's a little ridiculous that they can take their sweet time with it.

I don't think it is that it takes that long to process it...I think it takes that long for them to find the money!!! Ouch...all those homebuyers this year...us included...a lot of checks they have to write...

Any white people wanna ride this weekend?

You know the guy probably did not think anything of it...but it is true.

Unfortunately you can't separate races like this. Kind of like BET...what if someone came up with a WET? The name BET is racist by itself.

So if you don't want other people to segregate you, why are minorities doing it to themselves?

Or like someone here said: All the white people wanna go ride this weekend? How would that sound? All HELL would break lose.

I'm just sayin'...

Define white?..... we gonna include the jews and polacks? I'd be down for a Germans only ride

Hey I am down...but that would probably make me pretty lonely rider...huh???

don't know if I wanna say until I have my bike back...lol

My bike is in the shop for the 600 mile check... dropped it off and didn't think it would be more than 150 all in all. He gave me a copy of the order and it said $210 for labor + parts... WTF??? How many hours can you work on a brand new bike??? Hubby paid $145 incl oil/filter etc at Comp Accessories for his 600 mile tune up. Am I being ripped off? I will go pick up the bike today, but I am not sure I will take it back there after this...

Have had it for months....love it, love it, love it....

International calls are not a problem at all..you just have to buy minutes beforehand....but it is only 2 cents a minute to call to Germany it sounds like they are next door...very good connection.

the only downfall is that you have to have a computer on for it to work. so we took an old lappy we had and just hooked it to that. not a problem at all. :-)

I am a girl and I have absolutely NO problem putting my bike on the center stand....that is some funny stuff!!! Not for the R6 guy though...lol...oops...

I am a Medical Assistant

Hey shittygsxr....whats with the German sticker...

If someone really wants my 8 year old $80 KBC helmet... they can have it. I'll lock it on the bike sometimes, but normally I'll carry it w/ me because:

1) I wouldn't want people knocking my bike over to steal it

2) It's nice to get your helmet out of the sun and in the cool, or out of the night air when it fills with dew

3) Chicks (at least the ones I'd be interested in) dig it.

Maybe I'll think differently if I have to wear my more expensive Shark on the street.

8 yr old helmet??? Hopefully it will do you some good in case of a crash...I would consider replacing it...

I guess at least you are wearing one...

Most tires have tread wear indicators. They are bars made of hard rubber lying crossways across the tread. You can't see them on new tires, but as the tread wears down, they become visible.

You can locate the wear indicator by an arrow (note: depending on brand of tire, the arrow may be a little Michelin man as on Michelin tires, the Dunlop logo on Dunlop Tires, a viper head on Avon tires, etc.) on the sidewall or on the extreme edge of the tread area. Follow this arrow onto the tread and look for the raised portion in between the tread groves. If this raised portion becomes flush with the tread, it is time for a new tire.

I hope this helps.

Uff...if nobody would worry about that then we could ALL just go by the engine HP...lol
