PETA Leans on Merriam-Webster to Help Spread Propaganda
It looks like the English language may suffer from collateral damage in PETA's war on circuses. The animal rights organization best known for staging foolish publicity stunts, advocating terrorism, attempting to convince children that their parents are monsters, and of course, killing animals, is now demanding that Merriam-Webster change the definition of the word "circus" to conform with their hyperbolic propaganda.
PETA insists that the dictionary entry preach that a circus is a "spectacle that relies on captive animals... forced to perform tricks under the constant threat of punishment." People who just want to know what the word means would also be told that "modern circuses include only willing human performers." Tell that to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey.
As usual, PETA's extreme views are finding some traction: proper circuses (i.e., the kind with trained animals) are forbidden in 300 American cities, and a bill is pending to ban them from the entire state of Massachusetts, which once again finds itself at the cutting edge of moonbattery.
Look for similar assaults on the English language in the future. Activist thugs shouldn't find it all that difficult to bully left-leaning publishing companies into sacrificing accuracy to political correctness. They may even be able to get the word "kook" taken out of the dictionary.
If we really need to redefine "circus," too bad we can't use SondraK's definition:
Circus: any event that features Sheehan, Sharpton, naked hippies, paper maché puppets, Congressional Democrats...
Ironically, many PETA activists themselves seem to have escaped from a circus, if not a carnival freak show:
At least the nut with her face in the toilet was kind enough to put some clothes on.
On a tip from V the K.

Someone should have filmed it, made a DVD of it and called it, Leftist Nutcases in the Nude. They'd have made millions, completely amatuer porn!

Hopefully she will contact aids out of that bowl and die.

I wouldn't go nearly to insane extend PETA whacks go to, but I do agree that we misuse many animals for shallow entertainment.
Not to mention we eat millions of them everyday, but until we are officially no longer omnimvorous, I will eat meat.
Funny shot on that topic. "If God didn't want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat?"

Anyone notice the irony of two gay men telling everyone ELSE to abstain from "meat"?

JL,
Two strikes against these gay guys.
They can't play "zoo" anymore.
"Stweetie, you growl and I will throw you some "meat.""

It seems some of the PETA babes don't quibble with removing their own fur. Kinky, or infantile?
