In dissection protest, teen's name is now Cutout Dissection.com

Quote:


	ASHEVILLE, North Carolina (AP) -- You can call her Cutout Dissection.com, or Cutout for short, but just don't call her Jennifer. The former Jennifer Thornburg -- whose driver's license now reads Dissection.com, Cutout -- wanted to do something to protest animal dissections in schools. The 19-year-old's new name is also the Web address for an anti-dissection page of the site for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, where she is interning. "I normally do have to repeat my name several times when I am introducing myself to someone new," she told The Asheville Citizen-Times. "Once they find out what my name is, they want to know more about what the Web site is about." The Asheville High School graduate, who is working in Virginia, said she began opposing dissections in middle school after a class assignment to cut up a chicken wing made her uncomfortable. She helped create a policy at her high school that allows students who object to dissections to complete an alternative assignment. Despite her legally changing the name, she said most of her family members still call her Jennifer. "It will take me a while," said her dad, Duane Thornburg, who lives in Daytona Beach, Florida. "She's still Jennifer to me. I understand why she's done it. Believe it or not, I totally respect it." A CD showing the treatment of animals before they are dissected finally convinced him to support his daughter's cause, he said.

MMM PETA People Eating Tasty Animals.

Now if there is really bad conditions where the animal parts come from, that should be addressed. I cut up a frog in High School. Got bonus points for getting the brain out in more or less one piece.

(edit: If they can do that, what else can we raise a disagreement issue about?)

Can I now change my name to "Gas prices are too High.com" in protest ?

MMM - yes they are (Tasty)Fred

.... (sorry for the ambiguity- working w/ half brain w/ new baby in the house)

Free association is good. But WTF? Gas prices, frogs, and disection? Have a little thought about your posts.

Lol, I get it now. I am slow at times! We are under 3$ here now.

All I can do is sit here and shake my head. These jerks anoy me to a level far beyond anything that can be explained in words allowed in this forum. I have had run in's with Peta members and their beliefs are easier to punch holes in than paperbags with an ice pick. I'm stepping off the soap box before I get too peeved.

Honestly, I'm opposed to dissection, although I often disagree with PETA's other opinions.

Fine, for students who are legitimately biology majors and might need to actually fondle real organs.

But for those of us just doing it for general-studies credit, there's no merit in killing an animal so we can unsuccessfully scoop out its organs and find they look nothing like the book. There's software for virtual dissections now; it's sufficient.

I gotta agree that when I did dissection in school I found it gross (frogs and fetal pigs). Problem being is that the article claims they where doing chicken wings, friggin chicken wings are not gross. I eat them by the dozen and I am very familiar with the dissection of them. It's not like they where using rats, or frogs but they had regular table food that millions in the USA cut up and eat daily. These people just bother me to no end.
