PETA will launch an international boycott of Canadian maple syrup on Tuesday to protest Canada's annual seal massacre. On the steps of the Vermont State House (Vermont is America's top producer of maple syrup), a PETA member will whack a 6-foot bottle of gooey "maple syrup" with a hakapik (the weapon that sealers use to kill baby seals), releasing the bottle's blood-red contents.

I don't know where they get their maple syrup but where I get mine it doesn't look blood red.
If "animal rights" eccentricities and other cultural peculiarities are allowed to trump universal principles that are supposed to govern sustainable wildlife management, then there is no reason to expect African countries to save all the lovely elephants that Europeans find so precious.
Does anyone actually take PETA seriously anymore? Haven't they pretty much reduced themselves to the level of Westboro Church wacko Fred Phelps or the Nigerian e-mail scam? I'm going to go out on a limb and predict their boycott will actually boost maple syrup sales due to people rallying around the maple syrup industry in a counter protest to the PETA goofs.
