These people do funny things. But they are not funny. Take a look at the Billboard. News Channel 10 PETA Billboard Depicts Virgin Mary Cradling Chicken Carcass Group Picks R.I. To Launch Vegetarianism Campaign POSTED: 8:34 p.m. EST December 1, 2003 PROVIDENCE -- The animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is urging people to go vegetarian with a billboard that shows the Virgin Mary cradling a chicken carcass. The billboard, seen by motorists near exit 4 on Interstate 195 in East Providence, includes the phrase, "Go Vegetarian. It's an Immaculate Conception." 195 Billboard Brouhaha PETA said its message is designed to highlight that animals raised for food are mistreated and that vegetarianism combats the practice. The group said it chose Rhode Island to debut its campaign because the state has the highest percentage of Catholics in the nation. Someone apparently upset with the billboard spray-painted "Shame!!" on it. Copyright 2003 by turnto10.com. The Associated Press contributed to this report. All rights reserved.
