PETA's so far out there these days that they do more harm than good.

i believe in animal rights as much as the next vegetarian straight-edge skinhead. but i have always distanced myself from PETA. they are a bit extreme for me. and that is saying something.

It's not so much that they're all that extreme, it's that they're completely scattershot, to me. Like, one project will make sense and be fine, another will be insane extreme, and on the other side they're caught killing dogs they're supposed to have "rescued".
Hey, did you check out that sXe documentary link I posted in political bullshit?

Sounds like a plan to me. Pick a night and let's do it up. What's that skin doc?

I think I've seen that one. It's as much trash as all of them. Hey, you should try and get a hold of the Gangland episode on skins, add that to the pile. It was terrible - they had footage of "racist skinhead rallies" that included regular skins at a show in Chicago in the pit.

wow, roger may be making a slight boo-boo with this one. i don't know if publicly tying yourself to a group like peta is a really smart idea. in some areas i can see him on stage being pelted with fried chicken. i mean, i completely understand the philosophy behind being a vegetarian and animal rights, but peta? sheesh.
i'd be down for doc night. although i think i've seen the a&e doc, it's always good for a laugh.

Well, Miret (and Agnostic Front in general) is already tied to lots of shit that some folks find sketchy. This is more dorky than worrying.

true, true. still, seeing them get pelted would just be funny.

If you want to see people pelted with fried chicken, you gotta catch Southern Culture on the Skids.

You think Miret looked at that when it was done and though, "Aw, that sucks."
