PETA's controversial coats...

Your rating: None Average: 5 (2 votes)

A Toronto based community centre and PETA teamed up to donate 30 fur coats to homeless women - and failed miserably.
Those who were to receive the coats did not show up for fear of media attention, and PETA has received criticism from anti-poverty groups for their tactics while winning the approval of the fur industry.

Ah, the ultimate humour of this is that I know PETA did this because in this region (where I live), a lot of people complained about their habit of destroying fur coats, which could save the life of a homeless person needing warmth in these bitter Canadian winters.
Damned if you do, etc.
