KFC Is Not Going To Like This At All November 19, 2007

Check it out! This is awesome! We just unveiled our brand-new headquarters for the international Kentucky Fried Cruelty campaign on Saturday in Louisville—directly across the street from a noted KFC flagship or "vision" store. For those of you who don't know, KFC is actually based in Louisville, Kentucky, and our Senior Campaigner, Lindsay moved there to take the campaign to the corporation's doorstep!

Attendees at the grand opening of our new office received free samples of delicious faux fried chicken served by bikini-clad beauties who also lead a protest at the KFC across the street afterward. The 78-square-foot storefront window of the new headquarters features a graphic banner decrying KFC's abuses as well as an around-the-clock loop of factory-farming and slaughterhouse video footage taken inside KFC's suppliers. Also on display will be samples of the many celebrity letters and advertisements in support of PETA's campaign and photos of protests against KFC's abusive farming and slaughter practices from around the world.

I love this quote from Lindsay. "They say, 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.' KFC's blatant disregard for animal welfare is a stain on Louisville's reputation, and there's no better place to try to change that than in KFC's own back yard."

Make sure you join the peta2 Street Team for updates on how you can help with this exciting campaign and many others around the world!

That's so cool! I want to go (there of course, not KFC) Go you guys! I wish I could do that here.

Good luck.

This is amazing. I live really close to Louisville and I'll be sure to check this out next time I go there.

Great job.

Anyone know exactly where in Louisville this is at? I'm from there, and will be returning around Christmas, and would love to stop by.

Thanks!
