Deprogram Vegetarians

Yeshivah Orthodoxy just noted that PETA plans a protest attacking Rubashkin at Kosherfest. Suggestions for a counter-demonstration: Educate people as to why radical animal-rights ideology leads to eco-terrorism. The following, for instance, appears under the heading "We Are All Animals":
Will future generations look back at ours with the same shame and horror we feel when we read about ships crammed with slaves or about the forced winter march of American Indians away from their homelands? An objective look reveals that our generation still operates in the same way. The only difference is that yesterday's victims—used and abused because they were "different" and powerless—are now of other species.
Further thoughts: So some of the signs in the counter-protest could read "Deprogram Vegetarians," or "PETA Thinks You're an Animal," or "Fur is cool."
