Recent information regarding Criss Angel’s new Cirque De Soleil show “Believe” which seem to suggest that he’ll be using live animals in his show has already begun to stir the ire of PETA. According to Lisa Wathne, captive exotic animal specialist for PETA: “We have regularly received complaints about Criss Angel using animals. It is very disturbing that Cirque would consider allowing animals in any of its shows.
Obviously, links and more details are on the site. |

I'm no fan of Angel, but what does People Eating Tasty Animals have to do with this? ;-)

PETA is a TERRORIST group! They use VIOLINCE if they don’t like YOUR lifestyle.
...BUNCH OF PHONIES. |

This must be a rumor. As far as I know Cirque De Soleil has never used animals in their shows and probably wont start now.

***PETA is a TERRORIST group!***
You'll hear of them spray painting or chucking paint bombs at blue haired old ladies in fur coats but never a biker in a leather jacket! |

PETA acting on gossip and rumors and non-specific complaints?
Not good. Does Cirque use animals in its other shows?

It's been suggested (based on information coming out of rehearsals) that there will be a bird act in "Believe".

? "bird act" as in folks dressed in costumes? Kind of tough to see doves and parrots in a stadium environment.

Unless you're suddenly from England Jon, "bird act" in a magic context usually means "things with wings"
Although I suppose even things with wings could be "birds" on two legs. |

If they are, then they probably won't be too successful, since they tried protesting the Preakness Stakes yesterday and according to my area's newspapers and t.v coverage, they fell flat on their faces while doing so.

They are just trying to get attention using someone else because they can't garner the attention themselves because their message, and actions, are not sound. Does anyone know if they have ever protested other bird acts in LV?

Not too long ago someone was concerned for the safety of some animals he'd seen performing. The PETA people were contacted and the situation actually IMPROVED. Not all groups are totally bad or totally good. Even CA buys his mother a beer now and then!
Here's video from Believe ... I hear there are killer whales involved! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCDNiAsRqaY&feature=related

The use of animals in circuses and the like is abusive to them and degrading to those who need them to enhance their performances....I for one, along with many others, am happy to give a voice to those creatures who cannot speak.

So that would make you a ventriloquist.
You must by necessity decide what words to put in the animals mouth. They obviously can no more communicate to you what they want in life than they can to their trainers and keepers. Do you agree with the tactics of PETA and other extremist animal rights groups that breaking the law is a legitimate tactic to dissuade others from legal activity? A nice example for you to comment on might be in England where they dug up someones dead mother and held her body to ransom. Does that give legitimate 'voice to the animals'? Destiny BTW Slim - speaking of mothers - he knows he has to get her drunk before she'll gush about him. |
