Foie gras protesters: put down your signs and read this!
A great open letter to the misguided foie gras protesters of our land by a Portland restaurant owner. Very well written and reasoned. http://pdxplate.com/forum/an-open-letter-foie-protesters
Geez, I thought that letter was kind of stupid and reactionary, actually. Personal insults, faulty logic and a general mischaracterization of the animal rights movement.
Like foie protesters who yell "fuck you" to diners walking into restaurants that serve foie aren't reactionary and using personal insults. I think it made a ton of good points. They would rather pick on small targets than actually try to change the big picture. Kind of like those PETA losers. Oh, wait, that's a personal insult, too......
