Sorry, but [this picture of Pam’s bare back](http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/041215/photos_lf_afp/041215075411_36453ahr_photo0) probably isn’t going to do much in a culture where just about every land and sea creature is exploited – and once in captivity literally tortured. PeTA thinks they’re gonna guilt the Chinese out of wearing rodent fur with a slick Madison Avenue inspired poster!?! The same people who believe in the medicinal power of rhino horns and sell barely-live turtles ripped from their shells down on Mott St. ---

What a strange photo. Has she no intestines? ---

Nah, you can tell that her hourglass has been airbrush enhanced. They didn’t even do a good job of getting the edges to be smooth curves, especially on her stomach side. ---

She’s an android. Androids don’t wear fur. I do admire her conviction to expose herself at every opportunity she can. Brad Pitt could learn a thing or three from her. ---

I wonder who P_u_TA will use in a counter ad? ---

Maybe I’m weird, but I got a little skeeved looking at that picture. It’s as if I thought I could catch something contagious from it. ---

> [@lieu](#): > > I wonder who P_u_TA will use in a counter ad? That didn’t take long. The People for the Unethical Treatment of Animals has started their anti-PeTA campaign. Here’s a [Yo! PUTA billboard](http://gangsterera.free.fr/Gangs18/yo%20puta.jpg) in Shanghai in which the small print allegedly reads “Kiss my furless ass”. ---

Well I’ll be… t’was just kidding, although I guess we shouldn’t be surprised such a group actually exists. I’m thinkin’ Pam Anderson might be a pretty good poster girl for _Yo PuTA_ as well.
