As I mentioned in the post, I don't condone cruelty to animals; however, Manola, who is more of a fictional voice than a real person, parodies all things South Beach. The issue here is that using nudity to protest is really a moot point in this particular corner of the world; Manola would've said the same thing even if you'd been protesting any other cause. I (as the author, not Manola) do personally wish you continued success in raising awareness with your campaign -- it's important for the world to consume food with a conscience, even if you're not vegetarian.<BR/><BR/>Erica, yes. I'm already aware of Suvine's blog, but thanks for pointing it out!Maria de los Angeleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12827363023111783564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26349423.post-1170187988862227862007-01-30T15:13:00.000-05:002007-01-30T15:13:00.000-05:00Hey!

First off, thank you for making our demonstration a topic for your blog, any press is good press.<BR/><BR/>I must tell you, that these ladies are anything but exploited. Each of these brave beauties volunteered to use their bodies to bring attention, and boy did it.<BR/><BR/>Coverage from NBC 6, WSVN 7, WFOR 4, Univison, and Telemundo all covered this event. <BR/><BR/>The truth is KFC is the leader of the chicken industry. The way it slaughters its more than 850 million chickens each year is barbaric and cruel. Industry leaders such as McDonalds, Burger King, and Wendys have all adopted the same animal welfare standards that KFCs' OWN animal welfare advisors recommend KFC adopt. Celebrities such as Pamela Anderson, Dick Gregory, Rev. Al Sharpton, and even former KFC spokesman and Seinfield star Jason Alexander are backing this boycott and are encouraging the public to do so as well.<BR/><BR/>These woman were going to be naked behind a banner that covered both their front & back and says on the front "The naked truth: KFC Tortures chickens" and on the back "Turn your back on KFC's cruelty". The reason weren't able to use that is because of Martin Luther King Day, UPS was late on deliveries. We simply made the best with the one banner we did have.<BR/><BR/>This campaign is anything but laughs. KFC needs to step up as the leader in the chicken industry and set a more humane standard. <BR/><BR/>for more information visit <BR/><BR/>www.KFCcruelty.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26349423.post-1169307223460557522007-01-20T10:33:00.000-05:002007-01-20T10:33:00.000-05:00Yay!!!

I hate seeing women exploited as much as I hate seeing chickens harmed.<BR/><BR/>I also take issue with girls who justify dangerous eating disorders by saying their refusal to eat is about animal rights, when clearly its about a whole lot more than that (not that I don't love animals and hate animal cruelty). It's all sad - the disorders, the girls being exploited and the chickens being tortured. I could rant on and on but I must, and I'm not kidding, go to my feminist lit class right now where we will discuss female subjugation. I might bring this story up to my classmates.Wide Lawnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00709122293174246759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26349423.post-1169146856646239782007-01-18T14:00:00.000-05:002007-01-18T14:00:00.000-05:00Welcome back!(Were you away? ;) )Looking forward ...Welcome back!<BR/><BR/>(Were you away? ;) )<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to more commentary ...Sinfonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955550748015255716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26349423.post-1169036994903798702007-01-17T07:29:00.000-05:002007-01-17T07:29:00.000-05:00They were just troublemakers rival hired by KFC ri...They were just troublemakers rival hired by KFC rival Bollo Tropical.mkhallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987378692366628723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26349423.post-1169025608031250922007-01-17T04:20:00.000-05:002007-01-17T04:20:00.000-05:00Can PETA arrange one of these protests in my apart...Can PETA arrange one of these protests in my apartment?
