PETA to Africans: Stop Eating So Much Meat and Fish
It was great (well not really that great) seeing Paul McCartney at the London Live 8 Concert promoting debt relief as a way to solve the famine crisis in Africa. However, according to PETA, Mr. McCartney has a completely other plan for solving famine…Vegetarianism.
Going against a diet that has sustained human beings and their predecessors for millions of years, PETA and McCartney offer this plan for global salvation:
“If anyone wants to save the planet, all they have to do is just stop eating meat. That’s the single most important thing you could do. It’s staggering when you think about it. Vegetarianism takes care of so many things in one shot: ecology, famine, cruelty.”
—Sir Paul McCartney
That’s exactly what a starving person in Africa wants to hear—things they shouldn’t be eating. This time meat and fish come off of the list.
Evidently, in his waning years of public life, Mr. McCartney just can’t sit still until he has done every possible thing to tarnish the amazing legacy of the Beatles. At least whatever legacy what wasn’t tarnished from the release of “Ebony and Ivory” that is.

I was hoping that after Linda died Paul would stop feeling obligated to be such a buzzkill. Damn, he just got worse. I’m glad he wasn’t at my house for our 4th of July party. We drenched our charcoal in high-octane lighter fluid and belched smoke and soot as we grilled up a a slab of ribs and a pound of poultry. We cranked the Stones (who are still rocking because all the toxins they put in their bodies were soaked up by the meats they ate) and watched sports on our 72″ plasma screen (running on juice from the San Onofre nuclear power plant). To offend Paul any more we would have had to sneak next door and bury a land mine.

Hmmm. Hitler was a vegetarian also. There is something about trying to reverse 100,000 years of human development, in which the consumption of animal proteins contributed to the ability of early man to develop from a knuckle dragging, 26 IQ mammal to what we are today physically and mentally. It has been scientifically verified, that early man’s brain grew significantly as they consumed animal flesh. As early man became more sophisticated in their hunting techniques, they consumed ever greater quantities of animal protein which comprised apprx. 70% of their calories daily and of course led to even greater increases in mental and physical abilities.
So, McCartney by my reasoning, wants to pretty much create even a bigger African holocaust by having the africans eat the very foods that would allow them to become stronger,smarter and live more productive lives.
However, there is one benefit to eating a vegan diet. If you could take all of the methane gas (vegan diets are known to create flatulance)provided by the grain eating africans and somehow have it piped
into natural gas lines, it could then be exported to the civilized world where the profits could then be diverted to the corrupt rulers in many african nations and the starving peasants would continue to starve. The way I see it, McCartney will then put on a concert in some hellish african country, where he will bring his music to the masses who never heard of him or the Beatles. Of course it would be a free concert ,where only $10 million of expenses would be needed to be cover Sir Paul’s getting there and back safely, all of which the corrupt rulers will gladly foot.
Next, we get Bono,McCartney and Geldof to get some debt relief to the same crooked rulers who used up the cash and paid nada in interest anyway.What do we have a the end of this rant? The new african model of 21st century exporting genius. The crooked rulers have a new growing business of piping starving vegetarian peasant gas to the G8, have no debts to pay, Sir Paul makes a quick $10M introducing african famine victims to the palate ecstasy of eating wheat stalks mixed with cow dung and help sirs Paul and Bob win Nobels…..Love those rock gods.
Now, if we could only find a market in Africa to send that spoiling mad cow meat……

Blacks should stop eating meat. Hitler once said: “the negro tribes which are primarily vegetarian develop more harmoniously”–Hitler’s Table Talk. Iv’e noticed that most Rastaferians are the most freindly and intelegent black people I know and many of them are vegetarians. If Africans would adopt vegetarian diets I think they could definatly raise their consiousness. The eating of meat was always the first step to looseing higher consiousness and promoted savage evolution. Hemp nuts are better for brain cells than dead animals. Your killing yourself if you eat meat! Just think of the energy of a dead cooked carcus in your system sucking your energy! Vegetarian children are always so energetic which defies the claim that vegetarian children are malnurished. Vegetarians get sick much less than meat eaters…this is a fact…..unless your Russian….because Russians have such strong peasent genes nothing hurts them.

If your line of reasoning is the result of a hemp diet then get me a hamburger.
