Cruelty-free web gaming with PETA's Super Chick Sisters
"Colonel Sanders and his minions have kidnapped Pamela Anderson for revealing to the world that KFC's secret recipe is cruelty to chickens." So begins PETA's trippy Super Chick Sisters, a web-based Flash platformer that pushes allegations of mistreated chickens as you play.
Vegetarians will like the game for its message, but gamers will like the surprisingly decent controls and level design in this quick, five-level game. They'll also appreciate infringement-tastic cut scenes featuring Mario and Luigi sidelined with Wii-related injuries and beat up by People for the Ethical Treatment of Turtles. Oh, and did we mention the final boss: A robotic spider Colonel Sanders wearing a Bowser mask? Spoiler alert!

Sides it's a good thing Mario was sidelined, he would have ate all the chicken and said "Hey... what's the problem?"

Aside from the occasional stunt, it's really NOT that extremist of an organization.
That said, KFC really is ruthlessly cruel to their animals, at least as of a few years ago. They were supposedly going to change their act, but I'm not sure if they ever did.

If I had the time, I'd scour YouTube for pro-PETA propaganda for you.
I like seeing naked women, but how does seeing breasts make me feel bad about shooting bambi? This game is typical of their tactics. It's a protest that parodies the PETA organization as much as it parodies KFC and Nintendo. Those that aren't laughing at this game, are probably members of the cause already.
Do you know that there are better tactics? I have vegetarian neighbors that invited me to a grillout. They served up a garden burger that was surprisingly good and did not taste like ass. They were nice, polite, and were not pricks about my own choice.
They, unlike PETA, at least got me thinking that I probably eat too much meat. You might want to bring up that more effective tactic at the next "get naked for Thumper" meeting.
Did you know Peta sent a nastygram to the president of USC (south carolina, Gamecocks), to try and get us to change our mascot, get this, because it encouraged cock fighting.
Nevermind the Gamecock was a nickname for a Revolutionary War Hero (contemporary of the swamp fox).
Peta is full of idiots and morons who can't see past their own nose, and then run out to protests to make fools of themselves.
I mean, these are the same people who tried to get "pet owners" changed to "pet guardian", because you can't own an animal. Well I do own an animal, 2 of them. And they are legally my property. If someone stole them, it would be theft, not kidnapping.
ANIMALS ARE NOT PEOPLE TOO!
PETA frequently goes too far. I don't know whether KFC has or hasn't changed it's ways at all, but even if they haven't, that's no excuse for copyright infringement, or the general villainization of colonel Sanders - the guy's dead.... I'm pretty sure he has little say in what the company does these days.
I guess the point I'm making is that it's great to want to do away with cruelty to animals, however, it's not so great to pour a bucket of blood on someone because they disagree with you.
Knowing this, one wonders why Peta makes such a big deal when people are supposedly cruel to animals. Are they actually interested in protecting animals? or did they realize that there were a bunch of suckers out there who would go "Oh, those poor animals!" and then donate gratuitous amounts of money and support while Peta itself doesn't have to do anything productive at all, just carry signs and yell a bunch on TV and look for corporations to try to attack.
I'm not supporting cruelty to animals. I like animals, but as far as I am concerned, Peta is just another Political group looking for a way to control other people.
My breakdown is this: When an animal is a Pet, there must be love given. When an animal is Prey, and you are the hunter, there must be respect given. When an animal is Produce, it is Produce, the same as any vegetable.
Maybe it is cruel, but people gotta eat too, and thank you, I'm going to work on protecting my own species before I start trying to save the entire animal kingdom.
Not a member of peta, but a member of viva and veggie and that (well vegan).
Also: I eat more junk food than all, I honestly believe though in not killing stuff for food. And ya know, if you are going to do it you could atleast do it without cruelty.
I don't see why you would protect an organization that uses scare tactics and a form of terrorism to control and warp the minds of the youth for their own personal aggenda. I have canine teeth in my mouth like most humans and incisors, those were meant for tearing and ripping flesh and I will continue to do so and fight back against this terrorist movement. Why can't they promote their views in a peiceful manner.
KFC doesn't have any animals. They buy their chickens from major regional suppliers, the same place your local grocery store does. The only difference is that KFC carefully picks the absolute smallest birds that no one else wants.
God, I hate PETA. An absolutely ignorant, obnoxious, despicable organization. You should be ashamed of yourself for being part of it.
Yeah, good times. Keep up the fine work, fascists.

If you wanna download the game use the Flashgot plugin in Mozilla.
P.S. Vegans suck.

Samfish: I don't have a problem with PETA making this game, and I'm not about to call you an extremist, but the people in charge of PETA are at the very least hypocrites.
Their members advocate the attacks on labs that use animal-testing, while enjoying the benefits from such labs (like penicillin). They sponsor people to go into classrooms to spread false information (like how results from animal testing can't be applied to other species) and teach how to make simple explosives. They compare themselves to Martin Luther King and Ghandi, when there is a very clear and fundamental difference: NON-VIOLENCE.
Oh and my favorite bit of all: those animals that PETA "liberates" from animal-shelters? They euthanized(Re: KILLED) most of them. The President Ingrid Newkirk even makes the statement: "Sometimes, the only humane thing is to put them to sleep." In other words, PETA kills animals while attacking other places for killing animals.

PETA has never advocated violence against labs or processing plants and the like. If they ever had, the government would have long since taken care of them.
But what about the Animal Liberation Front? (You'll see where I'm going with this in a second)
When Ingrid Newkirk calls Rodney Coronado a "Fine young man," it's hard to see how she DOESN'T advocate violence. Rodney Coronado is a member of Earth First Movement, Sea Shepard, Animal Liberation Front. He fire-bombed a lab and admitted to six other arsons. PETA sent $45,200 to the Rodney Coronado Support Committee. They also made a loan to Ray Coronado of $25,000.
Gary Yuroufsky, has been convicted of Animal Liberation Front crimes. He's on PETA's payroll, as their official orator. He goes into junior high schools and high schools spreading his word. (By the way, the guy who claims he's just like King Jr., Ghandi, and Jesus.)
So yeah, PETA doesn't advocate violence. They just financially support those that do. (It's wonderful what you can find out from PETA's tax returns. As a tax-free organization, those records are public-record)
While PETA may have varying bases of extremism, its PRESIDENT praises a condemned and confessed extremist, and PETA has sent money to others.
Oh, one statistic. PETA euthanized 1325 animals at its HEADQUARTERS, of the 2103 that it took in. That's almost 2/3 of the animals they rescued.
