I'm sure this won't surprise anyone, but PETA is planning to stage a protest at the Preakness in the wake of the tragedy with Eight Belles in the Kentucky Derby.

Way to capitalize on the press. I'm sure there are legitimate animal concerns here, but if it was really about that, wouldn't they picket every race before that? Idk, it just seems very reactionary.

maybe an 80 year old will lose control of their car and wipe out the whole lot of them. Probably not but I can dream.

I don't suspect that PETA will be received with open arms in Baltimore.

If it's Alyssa Milano, she'll be received with open pants.
