No kidding…love my animals and take better care of them than I do myself sometimes but come on…they do not deserve rights
Am I the only one that thinks we live in a society that just doesn’t have enough to do with their time?
Bored and waiting in a airport regards.

His co-worker/purchaser is in TX, jumps in when we're talking/email chatting basketball through the day.....may need to give him a blastin' too. Problem is, the corp newsletter writers. My buddy started a newsletter for T-Mobile before it was T-Mobile at Corp office which used to also be in Issaquah, WA. He's a tree hugger/bleeding heart / everyone deserves help, Obama fund loving giver type.....I read the news letters he was writing and distributing...My reply was something like, "nice format Jay, but are you seriously going to put that article in the newsletter? Don't you think it is a little one sided? He deflected that with his reasoning that all people in the company had been emailed encouraging them to write letters expressing their feelings on different topics and issues both work related and non-work related.....Probably the same deal here....some person who is a big PETA proponent got to write a letter for the paper......kind of like high school newspaper.....the group that writes it usually doesn't represent the popular opinion....

Why would you assume he's pro-AR? Do your homework before you attack and don't come across like "one of those" extremists.
Although the PETA guy and the pro-AR members got top billing in the pro/con commentaries, I considered the format that Costco provided to be objective. At last count the "Nays" were ahead at 93%.

Why would I assume? It is one of my best friends. But I tease him about everything else so, this little tiddy is just a drop in the bucket.....just more munitions for Philacio bashing......now I can give him a bad time about his Company standing on animal rights......

Here are the unofficial responses from Costco's Corporate Office;
I thought this was worth a moment of humor.......
Cut and pasted---
Costco: It doesn't look like she's taking a side so much as promoting the book and opening the lines for debate. Wouldn't be anything new - Costco gets activists lobbying for something every year at the shareholders meeting.
Paul: Whatever you treehugging dirt lovers!!!!!!
Costco: There's always people that try to bring you down on your way to ruling the world.......
Paul: I’ll still win because I eat meat and shift the Hippies grow! Ohh, I like guns and killing too…..
Costco: Get down to your lab's eye level, look her in the eyes and tell her your shippin her off to a lab to do some R&D on pharmaceuticals that prevent hair loss.......can't do it?......you lose.
Paul: No problem, I don’t have a lab……
Costco: Good way to argue the point......
Paul: Anyways, they only use dogs stolen from urban neighborhoods for research……they’re basically the gang banging thug dogs society tossed to the gutter before they were born…..
Costco: References to human society to describe dogs .......you're soundin more and more like that 6.5%.....
Innocent bystander cc'd on the useless conversation:
Ridiculous.....ALL USELESS INFORMATION!!!!
GO DAWGS!!!!!

The good news is the voting is 94% No, 6% yes. Looks like PETA is in a very small minority. Explains their extremist/terrorist approach to making a point.
