CCF Crashes PETA's Bird-Flu Party

But the Center for Consumer Freedom stole their thunder with our own coffins -- dedicated to the thousands of cats and dogs that PETA itself has killed. The Associated Press photo wire is already carrying a snapshot of our counter-protest, and a few more are below.
