PETA succeeds in bulling fashion designer into submission

© By Othmar Vohringer

Yesterday I published a news release issued by the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance. According to which PETA launched death threats against renowned Melbourne fashion designer Alannah Hill.

The news release went on to say that Alannah issued a public statement against PETA after receiving the alleged threat from a person indicating a relationship with the animal rights group. According to a statement published in several international newspapers, Hill stated that police were contacted on August 4 in order to “investigate a disturbing and heated death threat.” The threat was from the e-mail address “newsmanager@peta.org.”

Last night I read on PETA Watch that the fashion designer buckled down to the pressure of PETA after receiving over 4,500 abusive emails and death threats. The last straw for her was when a PETA member threatened her seven year-old son.

This is not the first time that PETA has used threats, insults, slander and even violence to intimidate people to comply with their crazy agenda. There isn’t a country in the world that does not have a mile long file on record about animal rights terrorism against law abiding hard working people that mind their own business and go about a legal profession. Ingrid Newkirk, the founder and president of PETA, herself has gone countless times on public record endorsing violence against people as a justified means to achieve the outlandish anti-human goals of her organization.

PETA spokesperson Ashley Fruno predictably denied being behind the attack.
"That's not something PETA ever does. Our entire philosophy is based on compassion to all beings." Yea right and what you call this or this. If that is what PETA calls "compassion" then God help us.

By the way, Ashley Fruno is one of PETA's most notorious activists. She has been arrested in many countries around the world on grounds of indecent exposure, harassment, intimidation and assault among a long list of other violations. Fruno is blacklisted and barred from entering several countries in Europe, Asia and other parts of the world. Ashley’s claim to animal rights activist fame is that she has been in more jails and courtrooms around the world then most other animal rights. It seems fitting for PETA to choose Fruno, a "hero" of the animal rights movement, as their spokesperson. It also says a lot about the violent nature of that movements agenda.

It seems kinda sad that an organization would stoop so low as to threaten someone just so they can get what they want.
I feel there comes a time when you need not back down. Speaking for myself threats are just a waste of air and I wouldn't concern myself with them.

Despite the threats to her son, it is too bad that she caved in. All it does is entitle PETA even more, and give them confidence in their twisted agenda.

I'm fairly sure this is slander, might want to check your sources author! As someone who grew up volunteering with Ashley at the SPCA, I can certainly vouch for her, in that she would never, EVER, threaten someones child. That being said, she is also not a "notorious advocate" who is famous for "courtroom drama" or "arrests." Ashley has been arrested twice, and never been to Europe - making it awfully difficult to be kicked out of "several countries in Europe". The travesty here is the lies perpetrated by individuals like you! Before publishing information that will unequivocally be propagated to hundreds of readers, leaving them misinformed and posessing misdirected anger, perhaps consider verifying your information.
you should be ashamed.

Anonymous - My sources are correct. I am perfectly aware how many arrests Ashley Fruno has and how many countries she is banned from, including Europe. I am also aware that PETA does not recognize official police reports as facts and reports their own version of the truth.

The good news is that since I reported the post above Alannah Hill has due to tremendous support taken up using fur again in her outstanding fashion designs. I personally applaud her for the courage to continue the use of fur and encourage others not do give in to the terrorism of PETA & CO.
