PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is well know for their outragous protests, and being the largest animal rights group in the world. Their most recent news is protesting Giorgio Armani in Sin City. Supposedly, the fashion designer told Peta in 2007 that he would stop designing with fur after they had convinced Donna Karan to stop her use of fur. But, Mr. Armani, decided to go back on his word.
On October 9th, PETA held a protest outside Armani's Magnificent Mile to have the customers, workers, and Armani himself, to become aware that he went back on his promise. The most recent protest was held a couple days ago, the protestors held signs reading "Pinocchio Armani" with a picture of the man himself, Giorgio Armani, with a long nose that was photoshopped to his face.
There are many people who dissagree with this protest. A post commented on the article from the first protest. Some saying, "It never ceases to amaze me how many total whack jobs actually live here. PETA needs to chill, get a grip, have a cheeseburger," with follow up comments from people who have no idea what's really going on. "Duh yeh ah have a cheesebuger... dhu... ahhhhhhhhh duh," says "Dumb Guy" referring to the comment above.
Peta has many adds for their use of fur protests, but only one has been known as their 'Award Winning Add' titled "Fur Is Dead". Take a look: http://www.petatv.com/tvpopup/Prefs.asp?video=fur-is-dead-psa
