Speaking of PETA, they’ve had to pull recent ads <\/a>they were running up in Canada which were exploiting a grisly set of murders.<\/p>\n

A fierce backlash sparked by ads that exploit the grisly serial killings of women in British Columbia has prompted a militant animal-rights group to dump plans to expand its current anti-meat campaign to three Canadian cities. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals said Thursday its intention was not to hurt the victims’ families. “The one unexpected aspect was hearing from the family members, who were and are not the target of the campaign,” Bruce Friedrich, PETA’s director of vegan campaigns, said from Washington, D.C. “Our intention was to provoke meat-eaters, not upset the families.”
\nThe ad in question shows a young woman on one side, a “smiling” pig on the other, and a slogan: Neither of us is meat. <\/i>It’s a reference to the case of Robert Pickton, who is to stand trial late this year or early in 2005 on charges he killed 15 women on his farm in Port Coquitlam, B.C. The province’s medical officer of health said recently meat products from Pickton’s farm may have contained human remains.
\n[…] Friedrich said he was surprised by the backlash. “I really don’t get what all the fuss is about,” he said.<\/p>\n

And PETA accuses omnivores of being insensitive.<\/p>\n

The ads will be pulled — in a couple of weeks — from Canadian markets. They will still be used in the US.<\/p>\n
