HOT PETA and the Banned Superbowl Commercial

Check out this pro-veggie commercial from PETA that was supposed to shown during the Superbowl.


'Veggie Love': PETA's Banned Super Bowl Ad

Unfortunately, NBC has banned the commercial because it "depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards." Specifically, they took issue with:
  • licking pumpkin

  • touching her breast with her hand while eating broccoli

  • pumpkin from behind between legs

  • rubbing pelvic region with pumpkin

  • screwing herself with broccoli (fuzzy)

  • asparagus on her lap appearing as if it is ready to be inserted into vagina

  • licking eggplant

  • rubbing asparagus on breast
These are serious concerns. Who knew that PETA was a such a perverse anti-animal abuse organization? I guess they are following the old maxim, sex sells. But what are they selling exactly? Vegetarianism? I don't see this commercial as a convincing argument for denouncing meat. But PETA is still pushing it here.

Another big campaign for PETA is trying to get Michael Vick to get an MRI brain-scan in order to look for evidence of clinical psychopathy or anti-social personality disorder. What?!

ironically PETA is getting more publicity from the fact that their ad was banned than they would have if it was approved
