Paris Hilton gets the flour treatment

But I'm sure that the entire Web will be talking about how PETA members threw blood on her.

For about the 100th time: PETA does not throw blood on people like Paris Hilton, even though they deserve it.

Hi Diane, why flour? Also, you stated that Peta doesn't throw blood on people "like" Paris Hilton. Are certain factions of society given "special" treatment by Peta? Just wondering. Thanks.

PETA has a long-standing campaign against fur, and tossing flour is one of the things it does. Though not everyone who claims to be interested in animal welfare fights (or even refuses to be part of) factory farming or the abolishment of product lab testing, almost everyone with a passing interest in the subject is against the wearing of fur. The Humane Slaughter Act does not cover fur farming, and there are no U.S. regulations at all that provide any protection to fur animals on fur farms.

For these reasons, the anti-fur campaign of PETA, DDAL, and HSUS has been one of the most popular. My guess is that when you have public interest in a campaign, you take that campaign to the next level.

Throwing flour is done because it is much more benign than throwing paint or blood. This is not to say that everyone has to agree with the throwing of flour--just that the rumors about the paint and blood have no basis.

I realize I didn't quite finish answering your question--at least not clearly. "People like PH" refers to fur-wearing, not any other quality.
