Not quite the reception they were expecting... (snicker)
We're an eccentric lot here in Texas. Y'see, we don't take kindly to weirdos telling us how to run our lives...especially when it comes to what we eat.
We're meat-and-potatoes, fried chicken-and-hamburgers types down here, and when some tofu-munching, rice-burner-driving asshelmets like PETA try to barge in and tell us that the cow eating the cabbage is sacred and shouldn't be our dinner...well, that doesn't set well with us.
So when *spit* PETA *spit* decided to protest at a KFC in Brownsville, they probably shouldn't have been too surprised at the reception they received...
A trio of protesters with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals didn't find the welcome mat out when they stopped at a KFC in Brownsville on Wednesday. The sprinkler system was on for them, though.John Olivo, the manager of the fast-food chicken restaurant, turned the system on full blast to soak the curbside protesters. And a man who eats beef followed them around with his stepchildren and a microphone.
"Hey hey, ho ho, PETA fucktards got to go, hey hey, ho ho..."
The PETA protesters, including one in a chicken suit, are participating in PETA's campaign to get KFC to pressure slaughter houses to use more humane methods to kill chickens.
Oh, I can see it now: Lethal injection for the omelette-makers, ayup...
"They already hit me in McAllen," Olivo said in a story in Thursday's editions of The Brownsville Herald. "I was already waiting for them here in Brownsville."
Hey, if dumbasses were trying to negatively impact your business, what would you do?
"You're not going to win. Not in Brownsville," David Ingersoll, of Los Fresnos, shouted through his microphone at the protesters at a busy intersection. His stepchildren passed out anti-PETA pamphlets to stopped drivers."I'm waiting for someone to throw a cabrito head at them so they know what part of the country they are in," Ingersoll said, referring to the goat meat that's used in some Mexican dishes.
This is my kind of guy: Stands up to the morons and let them know that their bitching isn't going to be taken sitting down. Those stepchil'lun have themselves a good stepdad.
The PETA members didn't give up on their message."It hasn't been quite like this in other parts of the state," said Chris Link, PETA's campaign coordinator, who is traveling to protest KFC in 12 Texas cities.
Come to Dallas. We can fix that...
Link said the group didn't receive harsh treatment earlier in McAllen."It's a rarity that we get this," he said after the dousing.
I'd start wearing the raincoats if I were you, fuckhead.
Then again, it's a shame your daddy didn't wear a "raincoat", if you know what I mean...

hmmm... they haven't received that kindof reception in other parts of Texas? That tells me one thing- they've been spending all of their time in Austin. :-(
And, Alan... I have to agree. But, if I was in Brownsville, I think I'd make an exception.
