| (PETA-head) Pie attack on Gail Shea an act of terror: Liberal MP |
| 2010-01-27 |
| An incident in which the federal fisheries minister was hit with a pie by a seal hunt protester should be seen as a terrorist act, says a Liberal MP. An orchestrated plan by foreign conspirators to assault a federal minister for political purposes? That should meet the definition. Gerry Byrne made the comment to Newfoundland radio station VOCM after Gail Shea was hit in the face Monday by an American animal-rights activist, unhappy with Canada's seal hunt. The video clip reports that a PETA-head has called Byrne's statement a "silly chest-beating exercise," something PETA would know all about since silly chest-baring exercises are their stock in trade. New York City resident Emily McCoy, 37, a member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is charged with assault. 37? Probably too old for one of their nekkid protests (accelerated aging due to tofu addiction). Byrne told VOCM the government should investigate the incident based on the definition of a terrorist act under the law in Canada. McCoy was arrested after the incident in Burlington, Ont. Shea was not injured, and said she has not changed her support for the hunt. In a statement following the incident, PETA executive vice-president Tracy Reiman said: "A little tofu pie on her face is hardly comparable to the blood on Ms. Shea's hands." Last I heard, Tracy, your media whorehouse of an "activist organization" has not replaced the courts as the final arbiter of justice in Canada. They may take a different view of your operative's actions. |

| #2 Make her go seal-clubbing in her birthday suit. I'm sure that would cool her down a bit. |

| #1 I dunno about "act of terror", but it's sure good for assault and battery. |
